PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Introduction

We tend to notice swirl marks, light scratches, sanding haze, and oxidation after heavy compounding or during routine paint correction. This shows that although heavy-cut compounds are effective for heavy defects removals, they leave behind micro-marring, haze, or reduced gloss that requires further refinement. The SONAX Profiline EX 04:06 (1L) however is a medium cut, very high finish compound that bridges the gap between aggressive correction and final finishing.

What the Product Does

The SONAX Profiline EX 04:06 removes swirl marks, light scratches, sand haze up to P2000, and oxidation. It does all these without exposing the paint surface to the risk of micro scratching or haze; instead, it improves clarity and uniform reflection. The product combines moderate cutting strength with advanced finishing capability delivering both cut and gloss. This reduces the need for multiple polishing stages in certain applications. It also facilitates low-dusting behaviour, minimising residue buildup. 

Features

  • Medium-Cut Abrasive Technology: It features a balanced abrasive system that provides effective removal of moderate paint defects. This makes it easy to eliminate swirl marks, light scratches, and sanding haze.
  • High Gloss Finishing Capability: It delivers a high gloss finish all in one polishing stage. You don’t need a secondary refinement to improve surface clarity.
  • P2000–P2500 Sanding Mark Removal: It removes sanding marks within the P2000–P2500 range depending on pad choice and technique. This bridges heavy compounding and final finishing.
  • Silicone-Free Composition: The formula is free from silicone, ensuring its compatibility with body shop environments. Repainting processes can be done without any fear of contamination from silicone residue. 
  • Multi-Stage System Integration: It is made to integrate seamlessly between heavy-cut and finishing polishes. This makes polishing work more efficient.

Benefits

  • Combined Correction and Finishing: It removes moderate defects while simultaneously improving surface gloss. You don’t need to spend more time doing multiple polishing steps as it can be done in one step.
  • Improved Paint Clarity: It levels surface defects effectively, resulting in clearer reflections. This boosts paint depth and visual reflections.
  • Cleaner Working Environment: It has a low-dust mechanism that helps reduce dust accumulation during polishing. This keeps both the environment and paint surface a bit tidy and easier to clean up properly after polishing.
  • Controlled Material Removal: Thanks to its cutting strength, the paint surface is not damaged nor is there excessive clear coat removal. This reduces the risk of over-polishing.

How to Use

  • Pad Selection: Make use of a medium foam pad, as pad selection directly affects the final results. 
  • Product Application: Shake properly and apply a small amount of the EX 04:06 onto the polishing pad. Distribute across the pad surface for consistent polishing contact. 
  • Initial Correction Phase: The correction phase requires medium speed with moderate pressure. This is done to remove defects. 
  • Refinement Phase: If you wish to perform a refinement Phase, the pressure should be slightly lower than used in the initial phase. This allows the abrasive to refine the surface and enhance gloss.
  • Residue Removal: Wipe clean with a microfiber cloth after polishing to remove excess residue. Verify that the correction was done accurately at the stage and if you have to repeat any section.
  • Final Finishing (Optional): Apply a finishing polish for maximum gloss refinement. This helps enhance the clarity and removes any micro-marring.
