So there's more to making a good compound than adding some aggressive, fast cutting abrasives to some kind of carrying-agent. Remember, for most of us the goal is always more than working fast, it's about creating a masterpiece, that's where polishing paint becomes an art form. M105 cuts fast and then polishes out leaving a very nice finish. It will still need at least a second polishing step to remove swirls instilled by the rotary buffer, (anything rotating on the surface of paint is always likely to leave circular scratches that show up as buffer swirls or holograms in good lighting), and your cutting pad.
I've only used the M105 on the Joker Hood, this was cured paint, not fresh and not soft. We finished the hood with the Abralon #4000 grit foam sanding pads and used the M105 with a wool cutting pad to remove the sanding marks. It took two applications of product for each section we buffed to completely remove all sanding marks, not just make the paint shiny again. (There's a huge difference).
As always the best thing for people to do is to test our product against whatever product they're currently using or thinking of going with and make up your own mind based upon your real-world experience actually using both products.
