How To Use

Correcting

  1. Wash, decontaminate and dry the paint first.
  2. Mask off rubber and plastic trim.
  3. Apply a few small drops to a clean pad, as the bottle directs.
  4. Spread at low speed, then work it in at the speed the bottle gives.
  5. Wipe the residue off with a clean, soft microfibre.

Afterwards

  1. Inspect the panel under a good light.
  2. Refine with a finishing polish.
  3. Protect the paint with a wax, sealant or coating.
  4. Clean the pad between panels.

Top Tip: A few small drops on a primed pad cut better than a large blob, which only slings and dusts.

The Brand

Sonax

SONAX is a German car care maker based in Neuburg an der Donau, making car care products since 1950. After the Second World War, Franz Hoffmann began making care products under the Sona name, used mainly for household silver polishes; for the car care line an X, standing for wax, was added, and SONAX was born. Today SONAX GmbH is the German market leader for car care, sold in 110 countries, and it treats Made in Germany as a promise to its customers, private and professional alike, as well as the motorsport industry.

At The Drivers HQ we stock SONAX online with UK delivery and in our Ilkeston shop, across its two main lines: XTREME for enthusiasts and PROFILINE for professional detailing. Popular choices include CutMax, Perfect Finish, XTREME Ceramic Active Shampoo, XTREME Spray+Seal and the PROFILINE Leather Cleaner.

Choosing a SONAX PROFILINE polish

SONAX rates its PROFILINE polishes for cut and degree of gloss, and gives the finest sanding marks each one removes, so you can match the polish to the paint.

  • CutMax (cut 6, gloss 4) is a highly abrasive polish for rotary machines, for heavily weathered, scratched or sanded paint. It removes sanding marks of P1000 and finer, and its Low Dust Technology keeps dust down.
  • Ultimate Cut (cut 6+, gloss 3) removes marks of up to P1000 even faster at high polishing speeds, for fresh paintwork or very large surfaces such as motorhomes and boats. It is silicone-free.
  • Cut+Finish (cut 5, gloss 5) is a single-stage polish that removes P1500 sanding marks, nibs and spray mist with a high gloss and easy wipe-off. It is silicone-free and low dusting.
  • Perfect Finish is the finishing polish: it removes marks of up to P2000 grit and leaves a high gloss without holograms or buffing marks. It is silicone-free and can be used on an orbital machine when only a finish is needed.

On heavily marked paint, cut with CutMax or Ultimate Cut and then refine with Perfect Finish; if one stage is enough, use Cut+Finish. Use a separate pad for each polish, clean the pads regularly and keep off hot panels. For pads and machines, see our polishing pads and polishing machines.
