I agree...FPII is my favourite finishing polish. It may not correct any more than the other products you mentioned, but the finish will be much better. :up

Ok so what were you trying to say in your previous post?

 

[Alfisti]

Used it by hand. I wanted something for when the paint needs some cleaning to get more pop but it doesn't need correcting and SRP fills that spot nicely for me. I have Klasse AIO, P21S GEPC, Meguiars Color X, Vanilla Mouse and a few others. These products are all slightly different but fill the same spot in the process for me as pre wax cleaners. Of course if some correction is needed I just skip right over them and go to my FP II and move up from there if need be.

I was referencing your comments above. You made the point of viewing FPII as more than a prewax cleaner - as a corrective polish.



I was pointing out that it wasn't a corrective polish, any more than KAIO, ColorX, Vanilla Moose is. Much the same correction as each other. If you want a corrective polish you need to step up to something stronger. I wasn't criticizing FPII...just saying that it's not what (it sounded like) you were saying it was.



By all means - keep using FPII..it's brilliant! (but not for corrections ).

Heh heh, yeah...I have those others too (and a few more, 1Z Wax Polish Soft is nice for some jobs) and I probably like the SRP the best overall. And yeah#2 it's user-friendly by hand too.



Anthony A & Alfisti- Yeah, sometimes an almost-functionally-nonabrasive polish is just the ticket, esp. when you don't want to leave something (perhaps something specific ) behind the way SRP/VM/etc. do.



swan- You might think of SRP as being like KAIO with the following primary diffs:

-KAIO cleans a little better

-KAIO is much more trim-friendly (I generally keep SRP off all trim)

-SRP is *very* slightly more abrasive (still usually functionally nonabrasive)

-SRP is more durable

-SRP fills (quite well)

-SRP leaves a somewhat different "feel" behind

-SRP leaves a somewhat different "look"

-SRP leaves a somewhat different "feel" behind

Yes I mentioned that in my first post. It's an interesting feel. I call it glassy more than slick. Vanilla Moose is slick but SRP is different.

OK Is see what you were saying. No I don't use FP II for any kind of significant correction. I do use if for very light marring. It cleans that up for me nicely. I don't usually need anything more abrasive my vehicles don't get marked up enough. If I do get some defects that need something more aggressive they are RIDS and I spot treat those.

... I call [the SRP "feel"] glassy more than slick..

Yeah, that's a very good way to describe it :xyxthumbs

AG HD raaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawks!

best wax out there OTC

Don't bother using it? You can't be serious. It's the best finishing polish I have ever used. I understand it's very mild thats is precisely why I use it. I don't need aggressive stuff for the correction I need to do on my vehicles. I can tell you for certain "any cleaner wax" will not finish out like FP II. It might have the same level cut but there is more to a polish than cut.



:wow::wow:

I correct with a more aggressive polish and then use ZAIO. ZAIO does everything that FP2 can do and leaves an oil free layer of protection. Colorx or KAIO would do the same. FP2 is too mild to use as a correction polish.
