My question is. if you want to but a potential form into polite form would it be

はなせる or はなせります

would I do this for all verbs to?

like if i wanted to say 本を読めばあたまがよくなます
If i read books, I will be able to become smart.
Would that be right?
はなせる is correct.
はなせます is incorrect. Say はなせます.

Yes, you can put all verbs into these two forms, but verbs do conjugate differently with many exceptions.

本を読めばあたまがよくなます is incorrect.
本を読めばあたまがよくなます is correct.
