FAQs
Quick answers from the Ethos team.
Is this kit right for my paint?
It is built for full restorations and coating prep: moderate-to-heavy swirls and RIDS, finished to the highest gloss. Light swirls only? The One-Step Kit is enough.
Do I need a machine polisher?
Yes. Everything in the kit is built for a 5" DA polisher, the safest choice for first-timers.
Do I have to do all three steps?
No. Step 3 is optional. Jewel on Black Foam for soft or dark paint, or right before a coating.
Can I coat right after?
Yes. Everything in the kit is filler-free. Wipe each panel with Detox first to remove polishing oils, then protect.
What can't it fix?
Scratches you can catch with a fingernail are usually through the clear coat. Not for matte or satin paint, vinyl wrap or PPF.
What if I do not love it?
Every Ethos product has a 30-day money-back guarantee.
