Directions for Use

- Orbital Buffer or By Hand
- Application: Apply the product evenly over the painted surface using a moist polishing bonnet or applicator pad.
- Dry to Haze: Allow the product to dry to a light haze on the surface.
- Residue Removal: Remove the residue with a clean, dry bonnet or a soft polishing cloth to reveal a glossy finish.
Finish and Residues: Leaves a smooth, high-gloss finish with no sticky residues. Its water-in-oil emulsion formulation ensures that all residues are easily wiped away, leaving behind a clean and reflective surface. The polish fills in light imperfections, resulting in a uniform, glossy finish that enhances the depth of the paint.
