I have almost gotten the swirls polished out of my black paint one pass will do it, what polish is good to get the paint LSP ready. I used ZPC and it does a good job of removing the swirls and scratches with a 4 inch orange edge pad but I need something to give the paint that pop back. I was thinking of 1Z paint polish with either a white or green 4 inch edge pad. Need some suggestions here guys as I will probably go with whatever is most recomended, if there is one I am probably opening a can of worms here but I could use the suggestions here guys. Thanks for any help.
 
9935annivgt- Whenever you use an orange pad, you oughta plan on at least one more polishing step, and I'd do at least one step more than that



I haven't used the ZPC, but I suspect that it's not all that different (cut-wise) than the 1Z PP. On vehicles that matter, I prefer doing a finer final polishing (though 1Z PP often leaves an OK finish). But first you need to do something with a softer pad than the orange one.



I'd use the ZPC again with a milder pad, and then do some burnishing with some milder product on a finishing pad.
 
Thanks for the advice accumulator, I will plan on hitting it with ZPC and a blue pad and then one more step with a white pad. What do you suggest for the white pad polishing? I have heard good things about 1z paint polish, I need to purchase this last step product and looking for suggestions. Thanks again.

The white pad is more aggressive than the blue on, right? So use the blue/softest one *last*.



1z Paint Polish is a great product, but it's a medium strength polish and I'd expect the ZPC to handle that role. I'd expect you to need a milder product if anything.



See how it looks after the ZPC/white. Then if you need something better, get a *very* mild final polish to use with the blue pad.
