absolutely. Its a compound in various grades for all top coats. Your metalic is basically a clear coat (laquer) over a cellulose formerly, or water based flat paint latterly. The base coat is your colour whereas in a solid colour, imagine the top coat is a laquer with a colour pigment in it.
Farecla was orig produced for a mop (industrial polishing machine) When i do a top quality job, i always finish by mopping the surface to take any small imperfections out. For this i would use a 1500 grade wet or dry (used wet with soap) to flat the surface, then polish back with G7 on the mop.
They also make G3 which will do the same job by hand and a G10 for perfect fine finish but always put a decent polish on top of any compounded surface to protect it. Carnuba wax is probably the best you can get but it has to be done a sq mtre at a time.
anyone wants to PM me on bodywork issues feel free.
