Should i mix these for better finishing ability and a little less cut? Kind of an in between?

If so what should the ratio be?

I do that combo but not in a mix, I just put a little OP on the pad and little OC on the pad and go to work :D

Have you used the OC by itself yet? I did one of my cars with the Hyper Compound and was able to go to sealant without using polish. I've heard others with the same experienc. So you may be able to us OC and skip the polish. Otherwise I've heard of people mixing polishes with good results. Just make sure you polish long enough as that is the key with Optimum because it has longer working time compared to other polishes. That allows the polish to break down to a finer abrassive for a good finish you are looking for.

I would use the OP and OC separately. You can mix the HyperCompound and Polish to make an OC.

Agreed. Don't mix products in the same bottles. 2 dime sized OP, 2 dime sized OC.
