Hey guys,

As the title suggests, I'm trying to find the best polish to use on my FG Turbo Ute... I'm pretty much a noob to this sort of thing, and like to give anything a go... I have very minor scratches also (from the previous owner that I'd like to fix up)... Can someone point me in the right direction please :)

Cheers

Ethan

I would give either of these a go.

If that doesn't work think about taking it to the panel beaters for a cut and polish. You might pay a couple hundred bucks but if the scratches can be removed safely they'll be the ones to do it. Best results will always be had with a machine buff and the proper products.

I use Farecla G3 or 3M Rubbing Compound. They're aren't cheap but they are the best for removing light scratches by hand.

I use menzerna polish that I get off ebay

They have a few different levels of cuts and shine gloss levels available

I used these a couple months ago and was very impressed with the results

I use Scholl products very good stuff easy to use and get great results with a RO polisher. You have all different grades from S2 ( Compound) to S40 (finishing).

Used to have a low produced carnauba wax called JOF's in the UK, was awesome on black skylines :)

Haven't seen or heard of it in 5yrs, even tried emailing some Harley clubs where I found it originally with no joy... :(

Now use meguiars gold.

Zymol is another I've used but years ago and was expensive as sin !

As for ferecla G3, I use it to polish little marks and paint rubbing from bumpers etc, top stuff, lasts a very long time so no need to use a lot, great quality workshop grade product.
