Vehicle Application Tips & Instructions
Using Our One-Step Polish
To properly apply our One-Step Polish, first wash the vehicle with soap and water and then dry the vehicle thoroughly. If mild oxidation exists, use a finishing compound either by hand rubbing or with a machine buffer (max rpm 1500) to remove all oxidized paint.
A note about metallic paints: If the vehicle you are putting polish on has a metallic paint that has faded or is too far gone, nothing will bring back the luster or gloss even if you use a rubbing compound. The reason why is that metallic paints before 1977 were not acrylic metallics. They were lead-based metallics with a lacquer coating. When the sun burns off the lacquer coating, all you have left is the lead. Any polish applied to lead will turn black. You just cannot polish lead. However, any acrylic metallic after 1977, any lacquered paint job before 1977, any enamel paint job before 1977 and any acrylic enamel before 1977 can have polish applied. Our One-Step Polish will restore the color of the paint on any vehicle as long as the paint is still on the vehicle and the primer is not showing through.
Applying One-Step Polish
After you have used a finishing compound or a clay bar to remove old wax and oxidation and you have gotten the high gloss to appear on the vehicle, apply a coat of the One-Step Polish. Rub it in lightly until the high gloss shine reappears. Do not let the polish dry to a haze like you would with wax. This is a polish so just rub it in until it disappears and you see a nice shine or gloss. You should only apply polish on a cool, dry surface, preferably in the shade.
You can take a small amount of our One-Step Polish and actually “seal” your windshield by rubbing the polish into the glass until it disappears. Do the inside and outside of the windows. Our One-Step Polish is so unique, it will effectively stop aluminum and brass from oxidizing. It will polish silver, gold and enamel. Its uses are limitless. Its protection just can't be beat!
