Some of the defects
After testing a few combo's I settled on 3M FCP and a Megs Cutting pad and it was taking 5-6 hits to get a decent level of correction so I knew then it was going to be a hard few days of work. After few hours went by and went to van to get another bottle of FCP and remembered I had a bottle of 105 and some wool pads I bought from the States so thought Id give this a proper go. Only area's that had plenty of paint were hit with this product with remaining area's hit with either 3.02 or
What can I say but this stuff is good, what was taking me 5-6 hits with the 3M FCP I was able to do with 1-2 hits with 105. After awhile I found the product to start gumming up so thought Id give it a go with a Megs pad and the results were still very good. I found you dont work this compound very long as it flashes very quickly and works better with the wool pads if applied to the paint rather than the pad. This was than refined with 106ff
