My good experince with nu-finish car polish.

Not trying to pimp out this product as much as im trying to encourage folks to get out there and try it out on their rigs. I used the stuff in the bottle. Its about $8.00 a bottle and will easily do two or three vehicles. Contrary to what the bottle says, there was a fair amount of rubbing and buffing involved. I think i would have been better off buffing with buffing compound first but i was able to get these results by just using the wax on-wax off tecnique with just two normal rags and the nu-finish. Like i said, lots of rubbing and lots of going over spots 3 or 4 times. But heres what it did for me.

Here is a little test spot of what got me encouraged.

So with that, i was amped. So i did a whole half of the hood. In the dark... Well ok it was under the flood lights from the front of the garage.

Day time shot.

Then i moved onto the fender,





Then i went back to the hood to do the rest of it.





Keep in mind that the hazy areas are not wax. Thats just how the truck looked after a good wash job. THe paint really was that hazy!









The other fender,

I was stunned at how slippery the surface was after ward!
