So I saw the thread going on about F4 from IGL and it just so happens that I had a detail in yesterday in which I used F4.


So this product is a coating repair/AIO type polish. Its non abrasive but can be used with light to medium polishing pads to achieve a bit of correction all while laying down a slick layer of protection.


On a coated vehicle I have paired it with a soft black foam finishing pad on my Rupes Duetto to repair minor surface love marks.


On this CTSV I used a yellow IGL foam pad with F4 on my 21mm to achieve a bit more correction then machine applied Igl Premier to amp up the gloss and hydrophobic properties. This was a perfect 1-2 punch for a budget friendly exterior detail like the client wants. This Caddie definitely needs heavy correction work but this helped out a bit.


It definitely doesn`t replace true paint correction so don`t purchase it thinking its some crazy heavy correction and coating polish in one package.


So it is a bit watery and other users along with myself have found adding a bit of distilled water and putting a spray head on it makes it a bit easier to control the dispensing process all while making it work a bit longer without drying out.


Otherwise it also works killer when paired with IGL F1 or other compounds for a one step correction with great gloss.


Hope this helps!!!

Nice work with an AIO Justin. Seems like it’s a winner

So if I use this on a coating this will not affect to bad? Looking to add a layer of cancoat every 6-8 months. could I use this clean the paint without damaging my cquartz? Would it leave pant good for the cancoat

So if you have CQ you should be able to use this with a black foam finishing pad on a 12mm or 8mm da. Low speed. Then you can try cancoat right after but IGL Premier is a more suitable topper for F4. And that works wonders when machine applied with a black foam finishing pad on a low speed.
