## Description

Cuffie In-Ear.

Review: It is worth the value for your money, and it took me awhile to get used to it with different polishing pads, I am still experimenting with the products. The end result is great the sheerness is great and the products are applied great.
Review: About 6 months after I got a new truck I took it off-roading, rolling down narrow trails for about 8 hours. Branches often scrapped the sides of the truck leaving hundreds of superficial scratches. Fortunately, nothing that wouldn't buff out. I had some MacG*****, you know the product. I had enough to do one side of the truck. Worked my way through 4 different "grits". It took a couple hours+ but it removed most of the scratches. I wanted to try out this product so I bought the 4 pack and used it to do the other side of the truck. Chemical Guys recommended using the lightest grit first to reduce how much paint gets removed. Okay, I tried it. One pass removed 90% of the scratches. Second pass, they were 99% removed. Doing the whole side of the truck took a half hour or so and left the truck much more shiny than the other side. I was really impressed. It was a little harder to wipe off than the other product but worked so much better it more than made up for the time. I didn't intend this to be a side-by-side comparison, I just wanted the scratches out of my truck's paint. Running out of product halfway just made it work out to be exactly that, a side by side comparison. I found it works much better than the other stuff. The most aggressive grit is quite aggressive, you may not need to buy the 4 pack, you might just get by with the least 1 or 2 aggressive levels depending on what you're buffing out. I also do woodworking, I turn pens on a lathe for fun and profit and I use this product to shine up CA glue finish and resin castings. I had similar results to my experience with the truck. It worked so much better than the McG product. It really reduced my sanding time. I used to go through all the micro-mesh pads then use McG, now I sand to 600 and just use the Chemical Guys product, done! I will absolutely be buying this again. Funny thing, it's easier to buy on desertcart than the Chemical Guys website. They'd been out for months when i thought to check desertcart and was surprised to find it available. So, bottom line, this is a really good product and well worth the extra money. You may not need such an aggressive grit though so you might consider just getting the lightest grit first and trying it out. Good luck and happy buffing.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What does each do? is it worth the price to buy?**
A: They work on paint and clearcoat about the same way different grades of sandpaper work on wood. You start with a more abrasive 'starting' compound which removes noticeable issues in your car's paint. However, doing this will leave obvious swirl marks all over your car. Ever see a car that when the light hits it the right way, the sides have obvious orbital buffer marks all along the side? That's because the detailer only did the first step and then waxed it.To avoid that problem you move to the next, less abrasive, compound to remove the marks that the previous compound left. Each compound smooths the paint out a bit more, and eventually you end up with a glass-like surface. It's a bit of work. Even with an orbital polisher it will likely take you an hour for each step. And you WILL need an orbital polisher unless you have forearms that would make Popeye jealous.The point is that your car will only look its best if you get the paint as smooth and blemish-free as possible BEFORE you put on any wax. Wax will only protect the paint. It won't make it look better, aside from being a little shinier for a few days. If you follow this procedure your car can look stunning for weeks or months. I have a 13 year old Audi with black paint (easily the hardest paint to keep looking good). I've been doing this procedure since it was brand new, and people still frequently tell me how nice my car looks.Also note that the heavier cutting compounds might only be needed once. If you get the paint smoothed out, AND take care of it (wash and clean it with decent quality microfiber cloths only), you should be able to skip the first one or two steps of this package from then on and only need to use the lighter compounds on subsequent detail jobs. For that reason, it might not make sense to buy a regular size bottle of the heavy duty stuff.

**Q: Will the sample sizes (4 oz.) be adequate to correct paint on a 2012 infiniti g37 sedan with moderate paint? going in with a da polisher and hexlogic.**
A: Hi Kevin, the sample sizes should be plenty of product to finish your vehicle. You only use 4 -5 pea size drops on the hexlogic pads.Start with the orange cutting pad and use V34 cutting polish. Follow this with the white pad and V36. Finish with the black polishing pad and V38 polishing compound. Here are some videos that may also be of help from www.Chemicalguys.comhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L5qtEUpVrSMscroll down to view the other how to videos.http://www.chemicalguys.com/HOW_TO_ARTICLES_s/338.htmI use the products to restore headlights with great results.Hope this was helpful.  Ken

**Q: how many cars can you detail with 4oz ?**
A: I was wondering the same thing, but I just did a comparison with other products I've been using for a while. Generally, the off-the-shelf polishes and glazes come in 8oz bottles. These are half that size. I do a full detail of my car twice a year and usually get 3 years out of a bottle... 6 full jobs. So, I'm betting that you'd get 3 or 4 full details out of each bottle in this kit.

**Q: Quiero saber el orden de uso cual es primero y cuale sigue?**
A: El orden de los productos dependera de las condiciones en las que se encuentra la pintura del auto. Ten en cuenta que entre mas bajo el numero del producto más fuerte es y por lo tanto corregira mayor cantidad de marcas y manchas de agua en la pintura. Pero, si la pintura no necesitaba utilizar un producto tan fuerte tambien podrias crearle nuevas marcas. Lo mas recomendable es comenzar (acuerdo a como se ve y siente la pintura), comenzar con el producto mas suave(de mayor numero) para asi incrementar de ser necesario y no afectar mas la pintura.

*by I***E on 26 October 2020*

These are very good for polishing epoxyglass resin, even the coarsest delivers a glassy shine. I've dedicated a foam disc to each grade. The aroma is quite tolerable, a vague and inoffensive lemony scent. The downside of these polishes is that they will reveal scratches deeper than 1200 grit or so, so make sure your work is well sanded!
