Re: Ultimate Compound - Who's used it, what do you think?

Would there be anything between Ultimate Compound and M105 on the scale that is DA safe?

Not at this time but you don't need a product in-between UC and M105, just cut down on your buffing time for less cut or in other words to remove less material off the surface.

Buff, inspect when the defects are gone quit buffing.

If you want a less aggressive product for DA use then go with ScratchX 2.0

UC and ScratchX 2.0 enable you to tackle just about anything that comes your way that can be expected to be removed using a DA Polisher and it's a simple approach.

Re: Ultimate Compound - Who's used it, what do you think?

Can anyone discuss the cut of Ultimate Compound to the new DA-approved M105? I'm not looking for chemical design, just a simple answer. Which one has more cut?

We've mentioned elsewhere on this forum that Ultimate Compound has a cutting ability a bit above that of M83 which is a 6 on the cutting scale shown on the Mirror Glaze bottles. M105 is a 12 on that same scale so it packs quite a bit more punch.

Keep in mind also that Ultimate Compound and M83 use very different abrasive technology so how they cut is quite different.

I used it least week too. I think it did remove some swirls. It leaves a nice finish. I didn't have to follow it with anything.

Re: Ultimate Compound - Who's used it, what do you think?

i used it on the hood of my girlfriends explorer. It got rid of a lot of the scratches and swirls. Some deeper scratches remained but I am sure it is my inexperience with using my PC (only my second time using it) and just learning the right pad/product combos and learning to work the product properly.

In the hands of an experienced user it probably would work much better. But I like the product and will use it again

I used it last week on my uncles 09 Nissan Murano.
Had a few RIDS, and we bought Ultimate Compound. I used it by hand and I was really impressed on how fast it got rid of them, was expecting a lot more work to achieve the results I got and the finish was ready for LSP.

I will be using it tomorrow.
I'm really interested in that it might finish off LSP ready.

that would be great , but even if it didnt i have no problem using swirlx

It exceeded my expectations for sure! I was surprised with UC's ability to remove defects so easily by hand. It will be a staple in my arsenal!

A friend at the detail shop I worked at brought in a bottle of it. We tried it out. I think it turns out like m80 in my opinion. A great product for the consumers.

Ultimate Compound has been out for a few weeks now and we're seeing lots of comments about how it sounds like an awesome product, happy to see it's already in stores, etc.

Certainly some of you have used it by now and have formed an opinion of the product. So let's hear it - Did it meet your expectations, exceed them or maybe even fall short? Was it easy to use or was there something tricky about it? What did you use it on, how did it perform? We're just looking for some feedback now that several of you probably have it in your hot little hands.
