I'm in the process of painting my car. I'm using single-stage paint.
I've got a practice hood painted in the color I'd like to use (it's a glossy gray, not a Porsche color). I'd like to use some sort of polishing compound on it to get it extra shiny. What do you all recommend? I'd like some sort of system, rather than buying a mix and match of various brands. I was looking at: 1. 3m "Perfect It" system: https://www.amazon.com/3M-POLISHING-39062-3...3/dp/B0082LK87Y 3 polishes, 3 wheels. About $135 2. Norton "Liquid Ice". One polish, 3 different polishing wheels. About $135 3. Meguiars Solo Cut & Polish Cream #86 with a wool pad and a polishing disk. About $60. Thoughts? |

Regardless of what you use or do, please tape the edges so you don't burn through.
