ColorTone Polishing Compounds

ColorTone products are always pretty reliable, & this is no exception. Works great with the foam buffing pads or just a soft clean cloth..

I used the swirl remover as the final step to finishing a kit electric guitar for my son. It took a little "elbow grease" but it did a beautiful job giving the guitar a very shiny finish. It sat on my shelf for the last two years and I thought that it might work on my cloudy headlight lenses on a 1998 Sable. A lot of elbow grease, but now I have two very clear headlight lenses!

I have used 3m Finesse-It II for years as a final polishing compound and have had excellent results. But finding the right compound for the interim step between wet sanding and polishing was problematic. I recently tried the Stew Mac coarse compound and problem solved. It worked great. And I would imagine using all of the Stew Mac compounds would provide excellent results. Can you say "mirror finish?"

kinda pricey but a little goes a long way

I like these very much. I feel more comfortable using something formulated for an instrument, than a car. That said here are a few tips that I will adhere to in the future. If you are nuts about your finishes, get all three compounds regardless of what you finished wet sanding with. You will be glad you did. Second thing, unless you are going to chuck up one of the polishing pads here in a drill press for small items, or do a smaller repair, I would maybe rethink polishing an entire guitar with a pad chucked in a drill. Great compounds though!

I used the medium, fine, and swirl remover to refinish a Gibson Explorer.
Overall, I like the results very much! The consistency is a little thin...and can fly around if you use too much. Also, I didn't see a big difference from the medium to the fine. After the swirl remover, I noticed the combined effect of all that buffing! Wow. A hard, shiny...shine, ha. I will be using these on my future projects.

Works very well.The foam polishing pads wear to fast,but the compounds are great.

These compounds are easy to use and do a really nice job. I highly suggest to purchase the foam pads too ( a different pad for each grade of polish ) - though the price tag get's up there, it's a worth while investment in your tool box for maintenance and care of your instrument(s).

i have never been one that was able to get a really good finish on any project, until now.This stuff works like gangbusters by itself & with the swirl romover it is just icing on the cake. love it

The product works great, The only problem I have is that one of the bottles appeared to have leaked during shipping so I recieved a bag of polishing compound rather than a bottle, managed to salvage most of it though. No leaks to the rest of the package and no damage to the box.
