Expert Notes

Angelwax Resurrection is a heavy cut compound for serious correction work: deep scratches, severe defects, oxidation and sanding marks, which Angelwax rates up to P1200. It uses diminishing abrasives, works with minimal dust and low sticking, and is water-based and silicone-free with no fillers or masking agents, so the finish you inspect is the true result. Angelwax engineers it for professional detailers and advanced users working with a machine polisher and a suitable compounding pad. Pair it with a paint depth gauge, compounding pads, a finer polish to refine the finish, a panel wipe and your choice of wax, sealant or coating. Available here in 250ml and 1L.

Perfect For / Suitable Surfaces

  • Heavily weathered paintwork
  • Oxidised paint
  • Deep scratches
  • Severe paint defects
  • Sanding marks up to P1200
  • Refinished panels after wet sanding
  • Painted car body panels

Caution: Heavy compounding removes paint, so measure paint depth first, stay away from edges and body lines, and avoid thin or failing clear coat.

How To Use

Application

  1. Wash, decontaminate and dry the paint, then measure paint depth before you start.
  2. Test a small hidden section first to check the cut suits the paint.
  3. Apply a small amount of Resurrection to a suitable compounding pad.
  4. Work evenly across a small section with a machine polisher until the defects are corrected.
  5. Remove the residue with a clean microfibre cloth and inspect under good light.
  6. Keep the pad flat and away from sharp edges, badges and trim.

Aftercare

  1. Refine the finish with a medium cut compound or finishing polish if required.
  2. Clean compounding pads during and after use so residue does not build up.
  3. Wipe the panel with a panel wipe to remove polishing residue before protection.
  4. Protect the corrected paint with a wax, sealant or coating.
  5. Store the bottle sealed, upright and away from frost and heat.

Top Tip: Start with a test section and a less aggressive pad, stepping up only where the defects demand it.

Frequently Asked Questions

What defects does Resurrection remove?

Angelwax Resurrection is a heavy cut compound for severe paint defects, deep scratches, oxidation and sanding marks. Angelwax rates it for sanding marks up to P1200.

Do I need to follow it with a finer polish?

Only if the finish needs it. Angelwax advises refining further if required and describes Resurrection as giving fast correction with a refined finish, so inspect the panel under good light first.

Does it contain fillers or silicone?

No, Angelwax states that Resurrection is water-based and silicone-free and corrects without fillers or masking agents. The finish you see after wiping off is the true corrected finish.

Is it for hand or machine use?

Resurrection is for machine use: Angelwax directs applying a small amount to a suitable compounding pad and working it evenly with a machine polisher. Continue until the defects are corrected, then remove the residue with a clean microfibre cloth.

Is it dusty to work with?

No, Angelwax designs Resurrection to work with minimal dust and low product sticking. Using a small amount and keeping the pad clean helps keep it that way.

Is it suitable for beginners?

It is aimed at experienced users, as Angelwax engineers it for professional detailers and advanced users. If you are new to machine polishing, practise on a spare panel and measure paint depth first.

Which sizes are available?

Angelwax Resurrection is available here in 250ml and 1L. The 250ml suits occasional correction work and the 1L suits regular or professional use.

Angelwax waxes, polishes and protection

Waxes. Formulation #1 is a hand-poured carnauba wax of natural waxes and oils that needs only a thin coat, rated by Angelwax at up to six months. Dark Angel is made for black and dark paint: it enriches dark tones, helps hide light swirls and wash marks, and carries a chocolate scent. The Fifth Element is a high endurance show wax of four natural waxes and passion fruit oil, and Luminosity Matte Wax protects matte, satin and wrapped finishes without adding gloss, kept clean between washes with Luminosity QED.

Polishing. Resurrection is the heavy cut compound, rated to remove sanding marks up to 1,500 grade, Regenerate is the medium cut swirl remover, and Redemption is the ultra fine finishing polish that takes out holograms and P3000 sanding marks. By hand, Perfect Polish is a pre-wax cleanser with ultra fine abrasives, and Stripped-Ease removes old wax, sealant and polishing oils before fresh protection.

Glass and quick protection. H2GO is a glass rain repellent that Angelwax says makes rain bead off from as low as 20mph, applied after cleaning with Vision, a fast flashing glass cleaner that is safe on tinted windows. QED is the quick detailer for gloss between washes, and Alchemy is a metal polish for exhaust tips, chrome, aluminium and stainless steel.

Angelwax wash, wheels and interior care

Wash and decontamination. Cleanliness is a water based, solvent free citrus pre-wash made in Angelwax's UK laboratory, safe on waxes, sealants and ceramic coatings. FastFoam is a thick snow foam for the lance, and Superior Automotive Shampoo is a concentrated, pH neutral shampoo that leaves protection in place. Blue Rinse is a wax infused rinse aid for the clean, wet car, diluted up to 5:1, that makes water sheet off for faster drying. Revenge softens insect remains, Nemesis dissolves tar, glue and sap, and the Cleanse clay bar lifts bonded fallout, used with Uber-Lube.

Wheels. Bilberry is a non-acidic wheel cleaner, ready to use or as a concentrate, safe on painted, lacquered and powder coated wheels. Bilberry Wheel Wax then adds a barrier that slows brake dust build-up, and the same fruity scent comes as the Bilberry air freshener.

Interior and soft tops. AnGel is a water based, silicone free dressing with UV protection that leaves interior plastics matte and non greasy. Absolution cleans seats, carpets and mats, and Heaven for Leather is a pH neutral leather cleaner that keeps the factory matte finish. For convertibles, Excelsior cleans canvas, mohair, cloth and vinyl roofs, and Shield leaves an invisible barrier that repels water and stains on roofs and fabrics. Clarity is a super concentrated screenwash that can be used neat as a de-icer.

Kit. The Brush-Up set of five bristle brushes reaches badges, vents and wheel nuts, and the padded Detailing Bag has a rigid base for carrying waxes and bottles.
