A new tip for PC owners:

Recently Meguiar's introduced some new products using "micro-abrasive" technology. These products include #105, Ultra-Cut Compound and #205, Ultra-Finishing Polish in the professional line and Ultimate Compound, SwirlX and ScratchX2. These products make your PC much more effective at removing RIDs and scratches. They also can be used by rotary or by hand. The key to their effectiveness seems to be to properly prime the pad with the compounds or polishes. To do this apply product to the pad and work it in with your hands until it is evenly embedded in all the pores of the foam. Don't leave lots of excess on the pad. These new abrasives work FAST. What used to take two or three passes now are done in one. Begin with heavier pressure and finish off with light pressure. I'd have to say that since I started using these new abrasives I no longer even pull out my Makita 9227. To my surprise the PC now handles difficult paint correction as well as the rotary.
