  • Re: Ultimate Polish

    Does anyone get good results with Ultimate Polish on black car? I've tried Ultimate Polish on two of my car's side panel yesterday. Compare my hood with the side panels, didn't notice any difference after applying the polish topped with Ultimate Wax.

      I just happened to try the combination of Ultimate Compound + Ultimate Polish yesterday. I used Menzerna Power Lock for the sealant, but it didn't change the look of the car. I was very impressed.

        Wow that is amazing! What year was your car?

        Did you do clay bar / ultimate compound before polishing? Did you use a machine or by hand?

          The car is a 2006 with 55,000 miles. I had clay barred the car a couple weeks ago so I didn't repeat that. I used Ultimate Compound followed by Ultimate Polish using a Flex 3401. I couldn't imagine doing all that work by hand even on my small car.

            okay i bought some of this stuff a couple weeks ago but havnt used it yet, im waiting untill i have a DA polisher first which im getting soon, my car is a 2007 white mustang, ive acually clayed my car twice now in a month due to those annoying rust spots. i have done a couple passes of ultimate compound by hand and went right into 2 coats of M21, but i feel like i want to start cause i belive the car can be much wetter and glossier, here is my list
            -wash/dry
            -clay(if i see anymore rust specs)
            -ultimate polish-White pad
            -2 coats of M21-Blue or Red pad
            -ultimate QD
            or maybe even add the poorboys white diamond after ultimate polish??
            OR
            -same as first 2 above
            -#9 swirl remover-White pad
            -poorboys white diamond glaze-Gray Pad

              Got to use it a couple weeks ago. I like it. Long working time and it buffs of easily. Topped with nxt2. Looks as good as any other combo I've tried. Swirl-X still has a place on my car, though.... I use it instead of UC on the repainted panels because UC is too agressive.

              I never did get a chance to add a second coat of wax until tonite... I happened to find Ultimate Liquid Wax at a local store yesterday, and as I'm all out of nxt2, I thought I'd try it out. I sure hope it lasts a long time, cuz it's a real pain to remove. It still looks very uneven, hopefully after it cures overnight it will look better.

                  UP *is* a glaze and finishing polish. Just use that and leave the white diamond aside.

                        I wouldn't think so. It has light cleaners (like UP but lighter) and fillers like UP.

                        Yes, the light abrasives will clean everything off and remove very light marring as well.

                            and also what about light swirl marks? nothing major at all, UC would be way to much for what i need to take off, will the polish do the job?

                            • Re: Ultimate Polish

                              also will it matter if i use a white CCS pad or a gray CCS pad?

                                so if i want to clear some swirl using this prod by hand, do i must to use as many power as i use the UC to clean the swirl ? or i can just use it like any other polish but still can clean the light swirl ? ( not fill )

                                thanks
