CarPro Reflect - High Gloss Finishing Polish

Merlin:


My thoughts...

I've used 3M Perfect-It 3000 Machine Polish (AKA Ultrafina) and Menzerna PO85rd for years.
I just used the CarPro Reflect: High Gloss Finishing Polish and all I can say is AWESOME!!!

It blew me away. My wife (who does NOT have a discerning eye) noticed a BIG difference.
If you have been on the fence about a finishing polish Reflect delivers extremely high gloss.

Over the years I have used MANY different polishes on Shamu...mostly on the black paint.
I've never been able to get the silver paint to have a high gloss or shine that I really liked.
Yes, I have used many products on the silver but that "sparkle" I wanted was never there.
I had given up of the fact that I was ever going to be able to achieve a high gloss finish.

After first using Reflect on the wifes car I got up enough gumption to try in on the silver.
I have to tell you that the clarity, shine and gloss on the silver paint is truly outstanding!
I am finally able to achieve that "sparkle" that I've been looking for after all these years.

IMHO - This one is a game changer folks. It leaves the others in the dirt.
Half the price and IMHO a much higher level of gloss. Did I mention easy?
CarPro has done it again. They have knocked this one completely out of the park.
I'll post pics of the silver paint on Shamu as soon as I get the opportunity to take 'em.

Merlin,

I bought a bottle of this stuff based on a recommendation from you in another forum. The only vehicle I've used it on so far was a white Toyota Rav4. The results looked pretty darn good, but as I said in the thread I posted up on the vehicle, I'm going to reserve judgment until I try it on a darker color. I have a red Chevy pickup that's pretty beat that I may get to this week. That one should be a good test.

Do you happen to have any photos of the silver?

JP,

I my never ending service to this fine web site, sometimes I throw myself down and test new products on my very own vehicles. Today happened to be just such a day and I decided to try the Reflect product on my 2006 Scion xB. The paint didn't need any correction, so it was a quick wash and Nanoskin, then off to the Reflect. I used a white LC CCS pad on my Flex and went to work. I followed the Reflect with Menzerna Power Lock.

Oh, and before you guys jump all over me for not doing the wheel wells, it was pouring rain outside and I had to drive 32 miles back home when I was done. Here's what silver looks like afterwards:



















Although I still want to try this stuff on a dark color, so far I give it a solid two thumbs up.

Oh, and just for Mike and Dave, here's what you saw the reflection of in that very last photo. The boss just bought us a 6' Snow Blower for the Bobcat 5600 Toolcat at the marina. Yes, it's kind of fun to use!
