    Question Polish Recommendation

    Ok here`s the deal. I`m going to be purchasing a new car in a few months. It`s going to be black (metallic). Which polish would be your choice for the final step before coating between....

    Polish Angel Master Final Polish II
    Sonax Perfect Finish
    CarPro Reflect

    I`m sure there will be some minor things that need to be corrected and I want to bring out the most gloss I can before applying CSL and EXO V3.

    If there`s another polish that I should be considering let me know but I pretty much have narrowed it down to those three.

    Thanks for for the knowledge!

    Those are all great, I'd also look into CarPro Essence as well.

    Good thing about Essence, it's made to be use as a "primer" before a coating and can save you time.

    CarPro Reflect is a fantastic finishing polish but it has a very short cycle time so if you overwork the polish it can be frustrating. If you go with Reflect Zach McGovern has written an excellent review with instructions on how to use it. I use Reflect and Essence most of the time as my finishing polish.

    Third recommendation for Essence. Uses the same abrasives as Reflect. Produces outstanding results.

    HD speed would be a no-go prior to a coating. It's an AIO and has a sealant/wax in it.
