How it Works
Phase 5 Polish is the professional’s choice for removing heavy scratches and swirls from fiberglass, hard paint, and durable gel coat finishes. Fiberglass and gelcoat are typically reserved for vehicles that take the toughest beatings, like off road ATVs, quad bikes, RVs, campers, and trailers. The tough materials resist scratches, abrasion, and harsh UV sunlight that would destroy softer paintwork and plastics. When fiberglass does get scratched, swirled, and faded from UV solar rays, it needs a tough compound to remove swirls and marks that mar the finish. Chemical Guys Phase 5 uses a hybrid abrasive compound to cut away deep swirl marks and scratches, then refine the finish to restore deep gloss, pure reflection, and brilliant shine. Phase 5 works with any dual action, large throw orbital, or rotary polisher. Easily remove deep scratches, oxidation, and restore deep gloss and shine in just one polishing step with Phase 5 Polish. Don’t neglect large vehicles like RVs, campers, and trailers. Restore a like-new finish and shine to any fiberglass, gel coat, or durable painted finish with Chemical Guys Phase 5 Polish.
How It Works
Chemical Guys Phase 5 Fiberglass Polish is an all-in-one scratch and swirl remover that restores a mirror shine to fiberglass and gel coat finishes in one step. The specialty polish is formulated with diminishing abrasive technology to combine multiple polishing steps into one polishing pass. These innovative fiberglass abrasives cut fast to quickly remove swirls, scratches, and oxidation, then break down to finish like a fine polish to create a wet mirror finish on tough fiberglass and gel coat surfaces. The unique swirl remover restores a lustrous scratch-free finish without filling in or hiding swirls, scratches, or defects. Phase 5 Fiberglass Polish restores a perfect finish in less time, and works on fiberglass, gel coat, and extra-hard painted finishes. The ultra-refined compound and polish is engineered to achieve the finest level of optical clarity by removing scratches, swirls, imperfections, and even 2500 grit sanding marks. Use Phase 5 for a mirror finish in one pass on motorhomes, trailers, RVs, and offroad vehicles with fiberglass panels.
Versatile Formula For Any Detailer Or Enthusiast
The revolutionary Phase 5 Fiberglass Polish can be used on dual-action and rotary polishers for excellent cutting and polishing ability. Phase 5 works on fiberglass and gel coat surfaces with your pad of choice. Try Phase 5 with any foam cutting pad, or bump up to microfiber for extra tough finishes and deep defect removal. Phase 5 works without oils, silicone, or fillers that merely mask and cover scratches and defects. The glossy and shiny results you see are truly the results you get. Phase 5 Fiberglass Polish is VOC compliant and body-shop safe for any paint shop environment. All types of fiberglass and paint finishes can be successfully corrected using Phase 5 Fiberglass Polish. Permanently remove swirls, scratches, and oxidation from any fiberglass, gel coat, or durable painted finish with Phase 5 Fiberglass Polish.
Phase 5 Saves Money And Time
Not everyone has the time or money for a 3-stage polishing job. Offroad vehicles with heavy swirls, scratches, and oxidation may require heavy compounding to remove deep defects and damage from fiberglass and gel coat finishes. Then detailers have to use finer grades of polish to remove compounding marks and finish with a perfect glossy reflection. For fiberglass and gel coat with swirl marks, scratches, and defects, Chemical Guys Phase 5 Fiberglass Polish is the perfect one-step product that compounds and finishes in one step. Full polishing detail jobs can take dozens of hours per vehicle. With Phase 5, an entire vehicle can be polished in just one pass. Use Chemical Guys Phase 5 Fiberglass Polish for fast and effective removal of defects and scratches in one easy step.
