Meguiar’s Pro Speed Compound M10032 - Fast-Cutting Compound for Heavy Scratch and Swirl Removal - Professional Car Polish - Compound That Removes up to 1200 Grit Sanding Marks, 32 Oz

Only use it for a couple days but seems really good! Man is it easy to wipe off 👍🏼

If you're looking for a product that works will with 3M pads, costs much less than the over-hyped European counterparts and removes the haze left from sanding, this is it! This is the only product I've found that removes 100% of the haze with only a few passes and works well as a 1-step polish.For my use, I'm using it to remove the haze left by 3M's Trizact 1500 then 3000 pads and with their white compounding pad. I first tried Sonax's Cutmax, which is a step below M105. Both of those products only get rid of ~75% of the haze after sanding. I also tried Menzerna's Super Heavy Cut 300 compound and that gets rid of about 90-95% of the haze after several passes with a good amount of pressure. Haze was still visible when inspecting under direct light, especially on curved panels where heavy pressure or high buffing speed is dangerous. With Meguiar's M100, I can do about 2 quick passes at medium speed and all the haze is gone, leaving a finish that's good enough to call 'show car' quality. The M100 also worked great on plastic bumpers at a low speed where using the other product made no noticeable difference. This will definitely by my go to compound going forward!That said, this compound might be too aggressive for doing a light correction for swirls or car wash scratches. If you use this as an all-in-one compound for light correction work, I'd recommend a less aggressive pad and low pressure.

It is rated as a very aggressive compound. I struggled with my hefty 7-inch Harbour Freight rotary polisher with an old abused wool pad and didn't burn anything, even though it was my first correction job on a car. It removed 1500 grit sanding scratches after 4-5 runs. When I started using 2000 sandpaper, it accelerated the compounding process and the surface of my car was already presentable. I don't have experience with other compounds, but this one worked well for me.

once I figured out to slow down the speed and let it do it's work it became easy. it does a decent job removing swirls. it left a few 1500 grit marks. I decided to cut again with 1500 then 2000, then 3000 and zero marks were left. foolishly I assumed I could do a whole car in under 2hr before I started. this job was 6-8hrs. I'm not mad at all since I learned a lot from it. trusted brand at a good price fit the size

Meguair's products always work well. If not, it is probably you.

Great product

I think it works really well

It effectively removes deep scratches and severe swirls, restoring a smooth finish. The 1-gallon container is great for larger projects, and it’s easy to apply and buff off.
