I used the BLACKFIRE Scratch Resistant Clear Compound with the Flex XC 3401 VRG Dual Action Orbital Polisher on a 2006 Honda Element that had swirls, oxidation, and many imperfections and the outcome was unbelievable.
Here are some before pictures.
The Flex XC 3401 Dual Action Polisher is one of the best tools I've used, it combines an orbital motion with forced-rotation, this means it orbits and rotates at the same time eliminating any hiccups you might use with a regular single action rotational/orbital polisher.
This is just a world of difference, the Blackfire SRC Compound completely took the oxidation away.
Here is a picture of the rear of the vehicle before the compound.
The Flex XC 3401 Dual Action Polisher works well on tough corners.
The BLACKFIRE Scratch Resistant Clear Compound is very easy to wipe off with a microfiber towel. All scratches and swirls are taken out of the paint, leaving a clear mirror look.
The Rupes LHR 75E Mini Random Orbital Polisher is a good tool for getting into small spaces and corners. For the front bumper, since it had the most damage, I used a Rupes 4 Inch Microfiber Pad to cut away the extra scratches.
You can see how well the Blackfire SRC Compound works. The left side is untouched, and the right side was cleaned by the compound.
More Products were used to bring this car back to its showtime shine, more reviews will be posted soon!
