3M™ Perfect-It™ EX Ultrafine Machine Polish quickly and completely removes ultrafine swirl marks, even on difficult dark-colored vehicles.

You get polished surfaces without machine polish swirl marks – all at lower material costs and process times.

3M™ Perfect-It™ EX Ultrafine Machine Polish
Available in a variety of sizes
More Wet Time, Less Sling
You never thought one machine polish could deliver both of these important advantages during final paint finishing — until now. Our 3M™ Perfect-It™ EX Ultrafine Machine Polish stays wet longer on the substrate, meaning you don't need to keep reapplying it and using valuable product during the process of machine polishing and swirl removal. This can be especially important in places where heat and humidity are common inside or outside of the shop. Yet the polish also holds better on the pad, reducing the mess, waste and cleanup time associated with sling. Quite simply, our Perfect-It™ EX Ultrafine Machine Polish (PDF, 721 Kb) is our highest-performing machine polish for better material cost efficiency, lower process times and refined, swirl-free final paint finishes.

An Excellent Finish, Fast
As the final step of a truly professional vehicle paint finish, our Perfect-It™ EX Ultrafine Machine Polish quickly and completely removes ultrafine machine polish swirls even on the most difficult black or dark-colored vehicles. At its heart is aluminum oxide, the same mineral used in many of our top-performing abrasive discs and sheets. In fact, fine grade aluminum oxide discs are part of the Scratch Refinement stage of our Perfect-It™ Paint Finishing System, which includes our EX Machine Polishes. This abrasive cuts quickly and uniformly in a very fine grade to remove ultrafine swirl marks left during the machine polishing process.

Part of the 3M™ Perfect-It™ Paint Finishing System
3M™ Perfect-It™ EX Ultrafine Machine Polish is integral to our 3M™ Perfect-it™ Paint Finishing System (PDF, 2.6 Mb). Developed to keep pace with evolving paint and clear coat technologies, the Perfect-it™ Paint Finishing System is ideal when the finest finish is required for every level of clear coat and paint repair. This system uses a progressive series of abrasives, buffing and compounding pads, and specially formulated polishes across four stages of repair to produce showroom grade finishes with deep color and rich gloss.

For the best swirl-free finish on all colors, we recommend using Perfect-It™ EX Ultrafine Machine Polish with a blue Perfect-It™ Quick Connect Ultrafine Polishing Pad, PN05708 or PN33286.

The Science of Better Paint Finishing from 3M
With its formula that stays wet and still reduces sling, our Perfect-It™ EX Ultrafine Machine Polish is an integral part of our Perfect-It™ EX Paint Finishing System of polishes and pads, as well as our overall Perfect-it™ Paint Finishing System which also includes advanced abrasive discs and cloths. For ultrafine swirl mark elimination and polishing even on black vehicles, it is another example of how 3M applies science to the lives of collision repair professionals, consistently improving your efficiency, throughput and value as you prepare painted surfaces.
