Stage 3 Finishing
The final pass to a flawless finish
Soft99 Finishing Compound closes out the correction process by eliminating the micro-marring, fine holograms and buffer trails that remain after cutting and polishing. One careful pass with a finishing pad and the right machine is all it takes to unlock the depth and clarity hidden beneath the surface.
Why Soft99 Finishing Compound

-
Coating-Compatible Surface
Water-based and residue-free, leaving paint perfectly ready for ceramic, sealant or wax.
How It Compares
Soft99 Finishing Compound vs. a generic finishing polish
Not all finishing polishes are built to close out a professional three-step correction. Here is how Soft99 Finishing Compound stacks up against a typical generic alternative.
| Feature | DetailerSA | Alternative |
|---|---|---|
| Removes micro-marring and fine holograms | Yes | Yes |
| Low-dusting formula for cleaner work | Yes | No |
| Long working time for controlled finishing | Yes | No |
| Water-based and coating-compatible | Yes | Yes |
| Part of an integrated three-step system | Yes | No |
| Safe on all paint colours | Yes | Yes |
Coating-Ready Results
Leave paint primed for protection
Because the formula is ultra-fine and water-based, it leaves no oily or waxy barrier behind. The moment you wipe the panel down, it is properly prepared for your choice of wax, sealant or ceramic coating, so the protection bonds the way it should.

Questions
Frequently asked
What stage is this in Soft99's polishing system?
Soft99 Finishing Compound is Stage 3, the final step in Soft99's three-step polishing system. It follows the cutting and polishing compounds, refining the finish to a flawless, mirror-like clarity before protection is applied.
Which machines is it compatible with?
The compound is designed for use with both rotary and dual-action (DA) polishers. DA polishers give beginners more control and reduce the risk of burn-through, while experienced operators can use a rotary for faster results on larger panels.
Which pad should I use with this finishing compound?
Pair it with a soft finishing or ultrafine polishing pad for best results. A finishing pad maintains the low-abrasion character of this product and helps maximise gloss and clarity. Avoid cutting pads - they will introduce more abrasion than Stage 3 requires.
What defects does it actually remove?
Soft99 Finishing Compound targets micro-marring, fine swirl marks, light holograms, fine buffer trails and any remaining haze left after the polishing stage. It is not intended for deeper scratches or heavy swirls - those should be addressed in Stages 1 and 2 first.
Is it safe on all paint colours?
Yes, the formula is suitable for all paint colours. On darker colours where holograms and micro-marring are most visible, the finishing stage is especially important for achieving a truly flawless result.
What products can I apply over it once finished?
Once the panel is wiped clean and inspected, the surface is ready for wax, paint sealant or ceramic coating. Because the formula is water-based and leaves no oily residue, it does not interfere with the bonding of coatings or sealants.
What does 'long working time' mean in practice?
It means the product stays workable on the panel for longer before it flashes off or dries down. This gives you more control during the finishing pass, reduces the risk of the product drying into the surface, and generally results in a more consistent finish across the panel.
How much product should I use per panel?
Start with a small amount on the pad - a few pea-sized dots for a standard-sized panel is typically enough. The low-dusting formula is efficient, and over-application increases clean-up effort without improving results. Work one panel at a time for the best finish.
