Jet Black: Detailing and Paint Correction

plyons · 07-17-2017, 09:54 PM

Hey guys, I'm new to detailing and Chemical Guys did a fantastic job of target marketing me...I now own way too much of their stuff; ranging from the Torq DA to their wash kit and a few other products. Was wondering what people recommend for polishing jet black paint. I did a 2 step correction: used a microfiber cutting pad with V34 and then a medium/light foam polishing pad with V38. I got okay results but still noticed some light scratches. Does anyone have any good recommendations for polishing jet black? Also, any other product recomendations for washing/detailing jet black?
Thanks!
