I use this much more often than the Jescar Correction Compound. This can be used for finish or as a one step. I use with RUPES foam pads.

Now find a car with trash paint and dial-in in video of 30 min minimum each episode like old washing videos. Glad we have you, tv nowdays are garbage

@Tops1212 5 лет назад

Just used Perfect finish yesterday, my compound was carpro clearcut which seemed to dust like crazy and finished up with SPF. That polish is awesome and it's all I will use regarding polish from now on. Highly recommended...

@MONSTERO7 6 лет назад

I used the Sonax cut max on my E36. With black paint. Clear coat wasn’t corrected in years. Now I have micro scratches and I though a sealant and wax would fill them in, I was being lazy didn’t want to go around the whole car again polishing. They didn’t. So now I want to fix them. Think this will completely get rid of the swirls. Even if it fills them idc. I just want perfect paint lol. Cheers Matt

@ObsessedGarage 6 лет назад

If you used CutMax, that should have removed all of the scratches. Perfect Finish would then remove the haze.

@MONSTERO7 6 лет назад

Obsessed Garage thanks for the reply Matt! I ended up pulling the trigger on Scholl concepts s40. Much less cut. And will get rid of the swirls. And no longer using chemical guys pads. If it ain’t German I ain’t wit it lol. Hopefully I’ll get some sweet results.

@dossegundos7145 5 лет назад

PF for soft paint, and C&F for hard paint, that is the order or rumor, but YMMV with different pad aggressiveness

@tjoe1980 6 лет назад

Sonax Perfect Finish is easy to work with and wipes off easily. It does dust a bit but it is by far my favorite polish and my go to for a one step. I have been experimenting with Sonax Cutmax with a Meguiars microfiber pad and I really like it for paint that has heavier scratches. Then I follow it up with Perfect finish and the paint always looks amazing. One question though,was the training worth the money at Esoteric? I have been giving it quiet a bit of thought on whether I should go or not. Great video man!

@ObsessedGarage 6 лет назад

You will learn a ton. Esoteric is the best training I have received.

Whats better for da perfect finish or cut and finish and what would you use on soft paint out of the 2

@neilmcgregor9813 6 лет назад

I was wondering were you stand and feel about swissvax products. I've been looking into buying some of their polishes and wanted to know if you had any experience with it. Thanks.

@BrunoRibeiro-ep4tb 4 года назад

Im going to buy this polish and try it on my griots G9 orbital polisher, do you think this and a black pad would be a good compromise ?

@lightningsmokerXx 6 лет назад

Very informative. Just the info i was looking for.

@Audittr2108 6 лет назад

Any fillers (if applicable) would be removed anyway by the CarPro Eraser / IPA wipe after polishing.

@Inf_Viking 6 лет назад

When do you pull out the white pads? does it depend on the paint type, or do you use it as the 2nd step with the perfect finish?

@ObsessedGarage 6 лет назад

Definitely paint dependent. I use white a lot more often when I 2 step a car.

@richsq1 5 лет назад

@dphotos007 6 лет назад

I have a 1997 black Toyota 4Runner and for the first time I am doing a 2 step process and filling in the deep chip marks and scratches with primer and paint and sanding it with 1500. I used Jescar Correcting Compound with a DA for the first step and it came out great. I have the Sonex and HD Speed for the polish step with the DA. Question what pad do you recommend and second since I am new to this should I wax the car after the polish step or leave it and If I need wax which product do you recommend.

@ObsessedGarage 6 лет назад

Sonax will fill a bit, but won't leave anything other than some polish oils behind. You'll want to protect the surface with a wax, sealant, or coating. I love RUPES Yellow pad with Perfect Finish.

@nikosbn7079 2 года назад

Hi i want to hand polish my car with sonax sponge application and sonax perfect finish! What will be the results, i want to vanish spiders and to be glosy Its vw golf 2009 Or after that it will have haze ?

@ObsessedGarage 2 года назад

That will be really, really hard to do by hand. You really need a machine.

@r.k862 2 года назад

@@ObsessedGarage why would it be hard? Please explain, is it because the abrasives in the product need to break down a lot so it gives a smooth finish? What happens if using it by hand but don't work it into the paint as much will it leave behind haze?

@shausner5634 4 года назад

Matt - You make great videos - very informative, that's why I now subscribe. I have a '18 accord with light swirl marks and minor scratches from washing. I wanted to use Sonax Perfect Finish to correct and wanted to confirm using the yellow rupes pad or if you recommend any others. Additionally, I have scratching on the piano-black plastic on the doors and wanted to know if you recommend the same polish and pad for this area. Finally, I wondered how frequently you clean off the pad while working. I appreciate your help and have been thinking about getting a MTM SG-28 short gun with QDs from you!

@ObsessedGarage 4 года назад

You'll have to try it, but a white pad might do better on an Accord. I blow off the pad after a few sets of passes. Then swap to a fresh pad every couple of panels. Make sure you shake Perfect Finish well and often.

@bowieknife 2 года назад

@@nikosbn7079 Yes I used Chemical Guys orange and white hex hand polishing foam pads with Cut Max and Perfect Finish (two step) on my decade old Merc. It is hard work but it did revive the paint to a more lively, deeper colour, more metallic flecking. But I can still see love marks and I don't think I could get rid of those without a proper DA machine. Still happy with what I can do on a limited budget.

@paulkantor457 5 лет назад

I have a white 2017 RAM. I want to bring out the most gloss before applying a ceramic coating. The truck is kept indoors, so not much (if any) paint correction needed. Would this polish be overkill?

@ObsessedGarage 5 лет назад

Definitely not overkill. This would be the minimum you will likely need.

@ExciteLetsPlay 6 лет назад

Dude you have to make a video about vacums. I have one for my appartement thats really bad and that was even a 200 dollar one not a cheap 50 bucks one. For my car the one is okay ish but could be better. You really dont find any info on vacums, only tests from people who have no idea what they talking about

@groundcontrol6876 6 лет назад

ProjectGTR get the Ridgid 4 gallon 5Hp peak vacuum cleaner. I use it for my car and around the house. It is extremely powerful, durable (I actually left it outside a whole weekend and forgot about it and it rained a lot, I dried it up and fired it up the next day and it was like nothing happened) and affordable. Got it at home depot for like 85 bucks tax included on Puerto Rico. I think it was on sale at the time.

@ExciteLetsPlay 6 лет назад

Andres Rivera yeah i heard of these, sadly we dont have them in europe and EU regulation dont allow such strong vacum cleaners... All i can find is 1000 watt or 1500 watt max which is not even 2hp...

@groundcontrol6876 6 лет назад

Ahhh that's sad to hear :( didn't know you were from Europe! Funny that I just vacuumed my car today with said unit.

@semiephemeral9 6 лет назад

about how many cycles before it totally breaks down? I was listening to the last episode of Larry's podcast with Kevin Brown, Stoops and Jason Rose and I'm more sold on SMAT compounds.

@ObsessedGarage 6 лет назад

I would guess about 8 passes.

@semiephemeral9 6 лет назад

Eight full section passes, or one 4 up and and down-left to right crosshatch? Thx.

@c6z061 6 лет назад

Meguiars SMAT compounds require a lot more skill than DAT polishes. You really have to know when to stop, reduce or add more pressure, amount of section passes, etc...DAT abrasives are more forgiving, like Matt said.

@aurora85 5 лет назад

I noticed it says to use PF on a rotary. I’d imagine this would still work well on my griots DA correct? I have super fine light swirls in a few places that I can only see in the sunlight occasionally. Hoping this will be enough for a 1 step would you recommend compound first?

@ObsessedGarage 5 лет назад

Yes, works fantastically well on a DA.

@MiataPower96 Год назад

Can Perfect Finish be used on top of PPF?

@ObsessedGarage Год назад

Yes, it can.

@mutatedgenome 3 года назад

Does Sonax Perfect Finish have too much cut for a new car that has a minimal amount of swirls?

@ObsessedGarage 3 года назад

It probably doesn't have enough. If a new car is swirled, it likely needs to be compounded.

@tundrawhisperer4821 4 года назад

Hey Matt, what pad would you suggest if I was using the Cut Max first? Thx

@ObsessedGarage 4 года назад

Microfiber Cutting Pad

@tundrawhisperer4821 4 года назад

Obsessed Garage would that also be the pad to use for Jescar correcting compound as well? Thx

Hey Matt I have a gray Acura TSX... it had swirl mark city.. I used meguiars ultimate polish and it reduced the swirls by about 60 percent.. but which of these products should I use for that remaining 40 percent

You'll probably need something better with Microfiber Cutting pad first. Jescar Correction Compound. Then this with yellow.

You have to try out both pads. On black the yellow will probably finish better.

@Mr.Luke.A 6 лет назад

Great video 👍🏼 Can you use the Rupes white pad with Sonax perfect finish?

@Doggepp 6 лет назад

You absolutely can, if you have a "soft" paint, or a brand new car which needs very little correction, a white pad with perfect finish works amazing. But often when you use a white pad, you dont need anything that cuts as much as this polish does. You do however get a pretty much perfect finish (no pun intended) with this and a yellow pad on most cars.
