So I've now got my new PC at home and will soon have a sonus pad kit and three sonus polishes (SFX1, SFX2 and SFX3) at home as well. I'm starting on a 93 red tercel that is badly faded. My question is - should I start with the SFX1 or SFX2 on this car? This is my first time doing this and I don't want to screw it up. That being said my roommate (owner of tercel) said he wouldn't care if I took a grinder to it:) So what's your recommendation? I also have the same question for my 2000 celica, which I will be doing second. It has a lot of swirls all over, with some deeper ones on the sides where a bodyshop did a terrible polish last summer. I've attached an image of my front fender. Thanks for any help.

Always use the least aggressive product that will get the job done.



Start on a small area, no bigger than 2'x2'. To be really meticulous you might start with the SONÜS FINAL FINISH (SFX-3), inspect the results and decide if you achieved the desired result or need to go to the SONÜS ENHANCE (SFX-2). If that doesn't work you do the same going from SONÜS ENHANCE (SFX-2) to SONÜS RESTORE (SFX-1).



In reality, as you get more experience you'll get better at looking at a finish and estimating which product to start with. Chances are you'll usually skip the finest product and go a bit more aggressive at first on most jobs but until you're comfortable with the products be conservative. Always be methodical.
