What are y'all using to remove fine scratches and bring your gloss finishes to a mirror shine.
I was thinking Maguiar's #3.

Those choices are nice and fine, but... .. define fine scratch. Fine, as-in, after 600 grit sanding? After buffing to #18 Menzerna? #16 Menzerna? After rubbing with Finess-it? What? There are many steps, so tell us at which step you are, and we can help you to the next step. Tossing products at you won't do a dang bit of good until we know where you're at.... |

That was helpful. And, insightful. I have five ready to go out the door. I just buffed out the finish to remove the little whispy, extremely shallow scratches that sometimes occur on a mirror finish. As usual, I use menzera followed by maguiars to give the high gloss look. I am not looking for help to the next step. I am just curious as to what others are using. thanks
