Renegade Q16 Super Fine Sprayable Metal Polish
Renegade's Q16 Super Fine Sprayable Metal Polish is designed to revive polished surfaces with its convenient spray formula. With finer abrasives than its EZ Red counterpart, its perfect for on-the-go use. The fine abrasives give you a show-quality finish by removing light haze, imperfections, and water spots. It's perfect for polishing diamond plate as well, because the easy-to-spray formula won't cake up or harden, but will still cut through those surface contaminants. The cleaning agents and sealants will leave your metal surfaces bright, clean, and protected between more intensive machine polishing sessions.
Pro Tip: Apply a protective coating such as Renegade Hydro Guard Sealant Spray or Graphene + Ceramic Spray Coating to protect your newly polished wheels and tanks while also prolonging their shine.
How to use Renegade Q16 Super Fine Sprayable Metal Polish:
To maximize results, make sure that the surface to be polished has been thoroughly cleaned with Renegade Savage APC (All-Purpose Cleaner) or Renegade NOtorious H20 Waterless Wash or prepare the surface by removing surface contaminants.
*SHAKE WELL BEFORE USE*

Questions about Q16 Super Fine Sprayable Metal Polish
Direct answers for choosing, applying and maintaining the finish.
What is Q16 Super Fine Sprayable Metal Polish used for?
Q16 is a super-fine sprayable finishing polish for polished aluminum and stainless steel. It is best for light haze, water spots, minor imperfections and routine final-pass maintenance on wheels, fuel tanks, diamond plate and polished trim.
What metals can I use Q16 on?
Q16 is intended for polished aluminum and stainless steel. Test a small, inconspicuous area first when the metal, coating or finish is uncertain.
Does Q16 remove heavy oxidation?
No. Q16 is a super-fine finishing polish, not a heavy restoration compound. Use Pro Red or a mechanical buffing process for visible oxidation, mineral buildup, sanding marks or severe weathering before refining the finish with Q16.
Why is Q16 useful on diamond plate?
Its sprayable consistency distributes across raised patterns and recessed areas more easily than a thick paste, reducing heavy buildup in the diamond-plate pattern.
What is the difference between Q16 and EZ Red?
Both are sprayable, but Q16 is positioned as a super-fine final-pass polish for maximum clarity and light imperfections. EZ Red is a quick-maintenance option for touch-ups and show preparation.
What is the difference between Q16 and Pro Red?
Pro Red provides a more aggressive correction step for oxidation and mineral buildup. Q16 is the finer finishing step for restoring clarity after the surface is already in good condition or has been corrected.
How do I apply Q16?
Clean and dry the metal, shake the bottle thoroughly, apply a light amount to the surface or polishing pad, work it with light pressure until a dark haze develops, and buff the residue away with a clean microfiber towel.
Can Q16 be applied by hand?
Yes. Q16 can be worked by hand with a clean polishing pad and removed with a clean microfiber towel. Work in manageable sections for even coverage.
Should I spray Q16 directly on the metal?
You can spray a controlled amount directly on the work area or apply it to a polishing pad first. Applying it to the pad offers extra control around adjacent surfaces and tight areas.
What size is Q16?
Q16 is sold in a 24-ounce spray bottle.
Can I subscribe to Q16?
Yes. When the subscription option is selected, Q16 renews automatically and the upcoming delivery can be skipped or canceled through the customer account.

"Product separates within a day. A little concerning if this product is 50% water. The product does work good though. Will wait and see in about 6 months if the water separation has an adverse effect on the product."

"I used the spray wipe on wipe off that renegade sold me, I was in search of a product that I could use without lots of work involved and speed up the process of maintaining the shine I already have and I tried other products, but this is absolutely the best I’ve used… simple and quick and it performs as advertised…"
