Hello everyone,



after doing a ton of lurking, searching, and talking to members, I have made myself a very confused detail hobbyist!



I recently bought a 2001 Lexus IS300 with a Charcoal Grey Metallic. (Graphite Grey Pearl) This can be found on the Tundras and other Toyota and Lexus models throughout the years.



I am currently working on imperfections in the paint with IP and a orange cutting pad. I am slowly removing a lot of the paint imperfections and will be ready for the next step.



I wanted a recommendation for a polish and then something to seal if off with after that will really make the metallic flake pop.



I have heard of a TON of different combinations, and I just wanted to hear everyone's opinion and personal experience with a paint type similar to this.



I don't mind reapplying a product every month or two as I love doing it, so durability is not an issue. As long as it does a good job protecting the car from the elements in between applications I will be happy.



Thanks, and thank you all for the informative posts I have been able to read!
 
If you want some flake pop with some decent durability you have gotta try four star upp. I use it and love it.
 
Suggest either 106FF or PO85RD on a white pad after the IP. I've got a Thundercloud gray Landcruiser and like IZ Metallic Paint Polish too. I really like the way FK products make the metallic pop--at least on mine. Stand by, as you'll be getting LOTS of suggestions soon!
 
I have received recommendations for the IZ MP and the 4* UPP before.. so that will definitely be a good consideration. Thanks for the posts so far!
