Favorite finishing/jeweling polish

**nonwelder** · 08-10-2014, 03:22 PM

While I love hd polish and 205, but I am looking to get a little more pop before my lsp. Perhaps I just need to use a black/red finishing pad, but I am thinking menzera 4000 or 4500. Any other thoughts?

I`ve always enjoyed using 3M UF with a blue pad...great for jeweling.

Is UF da friendly?

HD Polish or Opti-Coat Primer Polish

`

Ultrafina is DA friendly but definitely need to rewash before applying a sealant.`

Thanks.` The OPT primer is not available to the general public, is it?

HD Polish or 1Z High Gloss.

OPT is only for the chosen few...haha. `No general public sales..Your correct sir!

Gtechniq recently released a coating that required wet-sanding to reverse. I have never wetsanded so`I can understand that restriction on the public. And probably so can the general public.

`

But why would a mfg restrict a polish?

HD Speed is a great jeweling type polish. Goes a super long time.

Thanks all. Any thoughts on speed/pad with a GG 6?

OneQuickGT1- I *do not* like the ultra-soft finishing pads, like the black LC (well...generally speaking), preferring something firmer, with somewhat bigger pores.` Just a personal preference I guess, but those really tight pads can load up with product and get clumping issues.` OK, maybe that`s just user-error, but I like things to be Accumulator-proof and as long as the pad doesn`t contribute any (or at least not too much) cut the final finish oughta turn out fine.
