helping out craigs427

[flyin ryan]

when i helped Craig find/purchase his Canadian Admiral Blue ZR-1 last fall i told him i'd power polish it for him. since he didn't get the car until into Sept. & with me deep into my garage addition we ran out of time before winter hit. i had to take this picture of his car when he showed up today, on the right is my addition with my Zee's in it. four Zee's under one roof. the dumb part is three are mine, or maybe i'm just dumb, that would explain everything, LOL.[IMG][/IMG][IMG][/IMG]

i wasn't planning on taking any shots when i finished but the sun was out & i know Craig wanted to show everyone his new plate, AB ZEE, picked out by yours truely. has a nice ring to it.[IMG][/IMG][IMG][/IMG][IMG][/IMG][IMG][/IMG]

wow ryan , what a nice place you have . also a very nice job on the admiral blue z. what did you use to polish the car . did you finish it off with a porter cable . 3 m has anew product out called ultra fina its in a black bottle with a powder blue label. get the pwder blue pad that goes with it .it leaves the paint absolutly swirl and scratch free . it was the only thing that really finished off my black car. i use it with my porter cable on 41/2 and move very slowly 3 different ways . you work each sec for 3-4 min when it s almost done it will turn to an almost oily look . wipes off so easy .i have gotten into polishing cars for fun .didnt know i would like it so much .thanx again for all your help . hope to one day meet you in person

Is 3M Ultra Fina a compound, polish, wax???? Can you get it anywhere or just auto paint supply type places?

Thanks.

I believe it's a finishing polish:

Thanks.

in the demonstration that the 3m rep gave where i learned of this product . it starts out as a very mild compound and when it gets oily go into to being a finishing polish.. it is very mild on the paint . he said they came upon this formula quite by accident .n thought thay had ruined a btch of a new syn wax and low and behold they got this . for black, red blue green cars its the best i have ever seen . finish it off with rejex and you got one heck of a shine .its more of an auto paint supply product . but well worth it . do you have aporter cable da . with a polishing pad . i could send you a little totry if you like .i wish i had a camera to post pics. my paint is so perty now on my black beauty.
