Ive been looking at trying a new arsonal of products as a Christmas present. One I am looking at for my Torch Red C5 is Blackfire Gloss Enhancing Polish. I also have some S100 I plan to use as a final topping over whatever I choose to use. Does anybody have any suggestions on other things to add to this combination? Maybe something in between the Blackfire Polsih and the S100? Should I use something like 3M Swirl Remover before Blackfire since I do have a few fine swirls and a couple bigger scratches from different things, and some typical bug spots & junk from highway travel. Thanks for the input guys :up

How about Blackfire All Finish Paint Protection over the Blackfire GEP?

I would definitely stick to Blackfire for the polish and sealant. You'll be amazed, especially on red.

3M SMR is very hand user friendly, i would use it, but also use the polish prior to the sealant if you choose BF sealant. SMR has a little bit of filling props, that need to be removed for proper sealant adhesion...

You could top with S100 if you wanted to, but I've always been happy with the All Finish Paint Protection as a last step. I don't see a need for the S100.

I've used Blackfire AFPP right over things like Swirl Free Polish and other glazes and never had a problem with it affecting durability. I beleive Terry suggests using it over #3.

Ive never used #3, but SMR, does leave some minor filling prop's, therefore they should be removed for proper longevity/durability of AFPP.

I guess I can skip the 3M step then. Maybe the Blackfire will take care of this by itself except for a couple spots which have deeper scratches, which I will attepmt to doctor another way before application of Blackfire.
Where is the best place to purchase Blackfire products?
