I bought some on Friday... never used a cutting compound before.. so a little nervous.. but wanted to get rid of the swirls on the car before polishing.

I used a 100% cotton cloth and just followed the instructions on the bottle. Worked far far better than i expected. I just took my time and it worked exactly as it should.

use the megs microfibre application pad, the white one. Then wipe off with a clean microfibre towel

Started Doin My Vec With Ultimate Compound Other Day...Just Got Roof And Front Bumper To Do Tomorrow And Thats It

I Bought A Crappy Buffer/Polisher From Machine Mart..Bought Extra Pads As Well..Ended Up Doing It By Hand..I Use These Pads For Cutting/Polishing (12 Quid For 5 Cutting And 5 Polishing)..Polishing Pads Do A Great Job As Well

Does this stuff remove the top layer of laquer, or just fill the swirls?

I've read the reviews and I'm very tempted.

Microfibre cloth will do the job nicely.

It is abrasive, however, you could use it every day for a year and still have plenty of lacquer on your car. It is very very good. Try it you will not be disappointed!
