Do you know that Ultimate Compound is a physical abrasive? Meant to be used with a good polisher/buffer that can go up to 6k rpm. Car should be washed with dawn to remove all wax first then claybar and wash again then use Compound and fallow with scratch x or swirl x, then go ahead and polish and wax lol :thumbsup: Not to bash you but if you just hand applied this to a car that hasn't been clay barred, it probably didn't do much? |

BTW if you did just apply the ultimate compound you may want to apply polish/wax immediately :eek:
Being a physical abrasive it removes some clear coat and could possibly go down to paint if too much pressure applied. Again not to harass you but your paint could be at jeopardy without wax/sealant. |

So should I wash it lol I guess i missed it since I did it wrong what should I do next to correct.
If you hand applied you probably didn't remove much clear coat. Some scratches can come out by hand but deep ones would require a polisher. I'd put a coat of wax on just to be safe if you have time but you probably didn't take much clear coat off. Some people tend to apply too much for too long and it then they start to see paint on the polishing pad haha! Hopefully you can get a better camera some time. I'm sure it looks way better in person. Even hand applying probably removed quite a bit of fine swirls and scratches :thumbsup: |
Just read the bottle sadly all I got was the directions say appl on a clean surface in a cool place. And the first set of directions is for By-Hand application so I was ok on that. Sadly I'm still lost do I wash it or wax it tomorrow? Like metioned only thing it said on applying it to make sure its a clean cool surface.
