                      IDEAL Finish

                      IDEAL Finish is a novel abrasive media engineered for the extreme gloss in the final step of automotive polishing. It is faster, more efficient, and increasingly cost-effective for automotive clear coat polishing that requires a swirl and hologram-free finish. Fresh off the OEM assembly line, straight out of a body shop paint booth, or dull finish on your daily driver, IDEAL Finish is perfect for final step polishing.

                      IDEAL Finish: High Gloss at Low Cost​

                      IDEAL Finish is comprised of a high-strength polycrystalline alumina (Al2O3), with primary crystallites on the order of 50 – 100 nanometers (nm). Its aggregated small-grain alpha alumina particles produce sharp, high strength cutting facets which translates into an exceptional surface finish when polishing automotive clear coat. Formulating with these fine alumina particles of tightly controlled distributions in a polishing slurry enables fully-reliable automotive polishing with low risk of generating new defects such as holograms. This means a uniform and glossy finish on black paint in reduced polishing timeframes.

                      IDEAL Finish: High Purity​

                      IDEAL Finish is provided fully dispersed without chemical addition in a near-neutral pH aqueous solution concentrated at 30% solids loading. This high-purity abrasive particle dispersion is suitable for polishing clear coats of any variety.
                      IDEAL finish, as with other IDEAL automotive finishing products by Saint-Gobain, can be modified for a customized solution.

                      Contact us to order IDEAL finish or collaborate with us on a custom version!
