    Blackfire SRC finishing polish

    I've been debating between blackfire and wolfgang to for my 2014 black accord. Is the blackfire SRC finishing polish a one step polish, meaning on a newer black car with swirls is this protect abrasive enough with white pad to remove the light swirls (typical on a black car) or do I need to do the blackfire SRC compound first or the wolfgang duo? I will be using a DA polisher to apply.

    thanks

    I would say if your swirls aren't too bad, yes it should be fine with a polishing pad. IME, working on Honda, Toyota and Subaru paint that isn't hammered, a finishing polish (BFFP, SF4000) and polishing pad are all you'll need. If have any deeper rids, you might want to grab some compound.

    Either Finishing polish can be used as a one step on a white pad.

    I would also recommend getting the corresponding compound in the event the one step listed above does not meet your expectations. That way you have on hand what you may need.

    Either product line is great.

    I have no experience with polishing a Honda, but on hard, black VW paint, it's only good for eliminating only the lightest swirls and clay bar marring.

    It produces a great finish and has a really long working time. For softer paint, it may be just what you're looking for.

    Re: Blackfire SRC finishing polish

    That's the exact combo I use on my black Jeep Grand Cherokee for the yearly cleanup. The paint is medium hard and it knocks out all swirls. A few rids may take a stronger pad or boosting to a compound but you should get 90-95% correction on a one step.

    I've read here that Honda and Toyota paint is softer so it may work better for you.
