Thanks Mike, I used 3D one to polish the black Lexus turned out well but I have some scratches on some of the curvy panels.i am trying to be very careful.
3D produced a great shine.

To clarify I can use this product on the paint?
Old school? Jeweling?

3D makes great products, that said, when I first detailed the 1969 GTO, 3D products were leaving micro-marring. Dr. Beasley's fixed it without leaving micro-marring. This is when I first started paying attention to how the NSP Primers worked on soft paints.

So just pay attention and always be on the lookout for soft paint.

Of course.

I have not tried using NSP 45 to jewel any paint using a rotary polisher, but if I get the chance, I'll test it out.

One of these days I'm going to order some or all of those NSP's, including the glass one.

3D abrasive technology works well on hard paints. It micro-mars soft paints. I shared this with the 1969 GTO as just one car I've detailed and found this out during my Test Spot.

For the 510 or 520 - any foam polishing or finishing pad - depends on the Test Spot.

I have a HUGE Buffing Pad Video in the works with pads from,

Lake Country
Buff and Shine
Griot's Garage
RUPES
Meguiar's

Stay tuned...

And for what it's worth, I'm loving the Buff and Shine EdgeGuard pads.

I am budget constraints, between jobs.

For the lowest entry price, get the Griot's Garage Perfecting Cream. I would have to revisit to know how it works on soft paint but the 3D final polishes will micro-mar.

The Dr. Beasley's NSP Primers have a higher upfront cost, but used correctly, that is 3 pea-sized drops per section, you use less product.
