It is a solid colour, but I wouldn't call it a dark colour Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/55664-which-polish/#findComment-841837 Share on other sites More sharing options...

IIRC both are just light polish glazes. They wont do a good job of getting rid of swirls, not enough abrasive in them. I havent used them ever as I usually use the swirl remover ssr 2.0 or 1.0 then a ex-p sealent and then a natty's wax.OH and rapid is a light coloured color in my opinion Edited 14/03/09 05:57 AM by ravenhard Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/55664-which-polish/#findComment-841842 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use that when I couldnt be bothered doing a full detail or for the oldies car. Would be better than the glaze Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/55664-which-polish/#findComment-841947 Share on other sites More sharing options...
