Re: Some inital thoughts on Carpro new Clear Cut Compound
Did a little test spot on a carbon metallic black CTSV with clear cut, BOSS G21 and Rupes green pad. Holy smokes did it destroy these defects. The paint is pretty swirled out and this hit it in one step.

Would be nice to see correction on more serious defects.

I wonder if this if more agressive than Menzerna 300 and Meguiars M101?

Justin, can you lessen the haze left behind if you don't follow the instructions and ease off the pressure on your last pass?

Actually I tried this and it didn't work. I tried shortening the work time to and it hazed more. I also tried using a yellow pad on the Ctsv instead of a green pad and got a worse finish with it. It definitely is a little quirky but when following the directions it works. I also just tried it with a microfiber cutting pad and it works awesome and does leave some hazing. No matter what though it does dust. But that doesn't really bother me.

Re: Some inital thoughts on Carpro new Clear Cut Compound
What kind of products do you pro guys seem to use more when correcting gm paint? I've done 4 Silverado and own 1 and my 105 and orange lake country flat get laughed at. Tried a grey thinpro and it worked after about 8-10 passes with a pc7424 on speed 6 with heavy pressure but surely there is something better. Would this new compound be a viable option or should I look into the boss FCC or some menzerna, maybe some m101? Hit me with your knowledge

On GM paint I always get good cut with FG400 or GG Fast Correcting Cream paired with Meg MF Cutting Discs or GG MF. Both will need to be followed with a light polish to remove haze left from cutting step.

I usually follow with m205 but would be open to other polishes
