sunday EB? nasas church ako nun sa 10th ave.
Ultimate Compound and Rubbing compound is the same in terms of function but UC is more effective and thats why its also scary, with UC you need less pressure to remove defects but its also a lot easier to make mistakes by removing too much paint, and UC also finishes better, rubbing compound on the other hand requires a little more pressure and requires technique to be able to work it properly but its pretty much safe, and if you're refering to the picture by weszt, that rubbing compound is actually formulate to be used by hand unlike the traditional rubbing compound thats formulated to be used with a machine, thats megs new rubbing compound and its good for compounding the tight and tough spots like near emblems and its pretty much safe, the main difference is that they use different abrasvies, UC uses SMAT and the rubbing compound uses DAT

ScratchX and SwirlX is also SMAT based products but they are much much less aggressive, scratchx being the more aggressive also for spot treatments and swirlx being the safest among them all, you see if you're using rubbing compound you might actually leave some compound swirls and scratches that should be removed by using a finer polish and this is where scratchx and swirlx comes in, its pretty much like in detail shops, once they use compounds its not glossy because the surface because isn't really smooth and fine so they use finer polishes to further refine the surface to improve the gloss, we even go up to a ultra fine polish to make the paint look like a mirror without any wax or sealant.

As with this sunday, why don't you catch up after your church?
