Meguiar's G17216EU Ultimate Compound Colour & Clarity Restorer 450ml for hand or machine polisher application

Product Information

Designed as an all-in-one compound, the 3D One Car Scratch & Swirl Remover features a hybrid formula of cutting compound and finishing polish . This means that the buffing compound can remove light scratches to heavy cuts, while also offering sealant protection. Furthermore, this compound is excellent for true paint correction , remedying paint defects , and eliminating swirl marks from a car’s paint .

Neglecting your car’s paint over time can result in a poor and often dull finish – something that is even more apparent on colours including yellows and reds. Last year we set ourselves one of the biggest challenges to date: restoring the faded paint of a Mk2 Golf using nothing but off-the-shelf Meguiar’s products. It proved to be such a huge success we’ve set ourselves an even bigger task this year – introducing the ’50 Shades Redder’ Corsa C! Effectiveness : In terms of effectiveness, there wasn’t a buffing compound that could match up to this kit from Chemical Guys . The fact that we’re not considering just one buffing compound , but rather four, should tell you all you need to know about the different compounds’ effectiveness. In particular, the V32 compound had incredible fast-cutting capabilities. With the microfibre machine polishing pad, I primed the pad with the product. This ensures that no dry spots are able to cause marring.

If not, don’t worry – just re-apply the Ultimate Compound to the pad and work the area once again! go around bottom half of car, door shuts, nooks and cranies, wheels and arches, door handles, bumpers with mild all purpose cleaner eg maguiars apc Following the application of polish, you should buff the paintwork with a clean pad or towel and then add a protective layer of wax or sealant. Adding a protective layer is extremely important. Failing to do so will result in your hard work being undone in a jiffy as soon as the paintwork is exposed to sun, weather, and debris.

Cobweb scratches are commonly caused by everyday wear and tear, however something as simple as using the wrong washing mitt or drying towel can have a similar effect. But before you panic, these scratches and swirls aren’t a permanent fixture, and Meguiar’s has the perfect solution to permanently remove these from your paintwork allowing you to create crystal clear reflections. You may think your car’s paintwork is in good condition after a wash, but take a closer look (especially in the sunshine) and you’ll notice what appears to be hundreds of thousands of tiny scratches littering every panel. div>
