    I`m considering either BriteMax Perfect Prep or HD Polish.... any suggestions?
    If anyone has used both or suggests another to try .
    Looking for a dust free finish polish.

    I use three, Menzerna 4500, Supernatural Micro Prime, and 3M Ultrafine, and I would recommend either the 4500 or Micro Prime if you`re using a da.

    I`ve had great experience with HD polish. I haven`t used the menzerna product, but I have used WG finishing glaze, which is menzerna based, and it is more finicky- harder to wipe off and not as long of a work time. The HD polishes really are top notch.

    Almost every car I have done this year was finished off with Optimum Hyper Polish. I would say this is one of the most underrated polishes on the market and it has yielded some pretty impressive results for me even as a one-step.

    Re: Favorite Finishing polish

    My favourite is HD Polish, has a lot of cut and finishes out amazing.
    I combo`ed it with Rupes Green/Yellow Foam pad on my 15ES and Mini

    I also own Men SF4000 but haven`t opened the bottle yet.

    Two votes for Optimum Hyper Polish. Long work time, great variations of cut, and wipes off very, very easily. I use it a lot on dark colors because there is absolutely no dust to speak of. I also like CarPro Reflect.

    Since you`re using a long throw, I`ll cast a vote for Griots Garage Perfecting Cream or HD Polish.

    HD Polish and I`ve had great results even on VW hard clear with a B&S orange pad--great cut and finishes very well.

    Re: Favorite Finishing polish

    Plenty of good finishing polishes out there and it`s hard to go wrong with any of them. These are all in my currently used arsenal.

    Griots Correct and Perfecting Creams: Both solid contenders that cut well and have always finished perfectly for me with no dusting. Correct Cream is typically what I`ll use unless it`s a softer clear that marrs easily or is prone to DA haze. They smell awesome too! On some paints they can require more effort to remove then others.

    HD Polish+: Very easy to use, good cut, easy wipe off, dusting seems to be gone with the new version. Don`t care for the smell though as it has a hint of Adapt to it now.

    Hyper Polish: Great polish that finished very well on virtually all paints I`ve used it on with no dusting. I used this a lot more before Opt Primer came out for coating jobs, but don`t use it much now days having dropped OC. I have been meaning to try the latest version though as I hear the wipe off has improved. I felt the older stuff require a little more effort to remove than some others, but it was on par with the Griot`s creams and didn`t really bother me.

    M205: Still one of the best polishes out there IMO but it can require an adjustment in technique to finish down perfectly on some paints. It`s also still one of the easiest polishes for wipe off and with little to no dusting. Can be used for heavy correction too.

    If Carpro Essence was a woman I`d be in love!
    Have you tried Carpro Essence?
