    The Essentials

    Paired with the polishers in the kit, these pads, tape, and tools provide the precision and correcting-power to clear your paint of scratches and haze. The RUPES BigFoot Claw Pad Tool helps keep your pads fresh and spreads compound evenly on the pad for a consistent polishing experience, while the 3M Precision Masking Tape helps protect sensitive areas like black plastics or headlights from your polishing compounds.

    Griot's Garage Boss Fast Correcting Cream

    • Sizes Available: 16 oz or 1 Gallon
    • Use Case: Removes moderate to severe defects
    • Formula: Diminishing abrasive, low dust, long work time
    • Finish: No haze or micro-swirls
    • Application: Easy wipe-off, rounded-tip bottle for pad loading

    Sonax Perfect Finish

    • Polish (In the Middle): With the combination of this Sonax Perfect Finish and the Jescar Correcting Compound that I have in store, I've found this type of medium polish unnecessary.
    • 1-Step: This is generally a polish that starts out cutting to some extent and diminishes as you make more passes to finish out the surface. Sonax Perfect Finish is an example.
    • Finishing: I happen to use Perfect Finish to finish most of the time, but there are dedicated polishes that are used to refine the surface after compounding or when you just want to clean up a car that doesn't have any major defects.

    CARPRO Eraser

    • Purpose: Removes polishing oils for clear inspection and better bonding of sealants/waxes/coatings
    • Uses: After compounding, after polishing, on glass prep for coatings
    • Characteristics: Less aggressive than IPA, pleasant scent
    • Packaging: Available in 1L or 1 Gallon bottles

    Basic Polishing Package

    If you want to polish your car, this polishing package is the place to start to set you up for success. There’s a ton of information and an insane amount of product choices out there, making it challenging to figure out exactly what to get. That’s what Uncle Matty is here for. I have curated the best products out there to build your polishing arsenal. 

    Polishing your car is super simple. Many of you have seen me do paint corrections several times over the years with all sorts of different vehicles. The steps I follow consistently are to prep the surface, tape the trim, get a random orbital polisher and some pads, and move some polish around on the paint. That may be an oversimplification, but this process will get you great results. Attempting to narrow down the hundreds of products I either have in my cabinet or have tried and thrown away has been both difficult and fun, especially since each paint reacts differently to different products and techniques. 

    This package includes the must-have products I find myself using on almost any car. For the people who need polishers, the Mirka polishers available as an add-on to this package are super legit. While these polishers are more expensive than most (especially the Mirka), they will last you a lifetime.

    I understand this adds up to become a costly package, but I assure you I’m not marking anything up. Every single item here I’m selling at retail. The value I’m providing you is just putting it all together, so you don’t have to buy everything piece by piece. However, if you only need a couple of items from this kit, we have everything available in our store a la carte. Want my full setup? Check out my Ultimate Polishing Solution.

    This package will not come with the Rupes 1" polisher
