I've read where some have suggested you can to straight to applying an LSP after using Meg's Ultimate Compound.I know ideally you want to follow up with a fine polish.Is it true that that UC can leave a finish fine enough to be LSP ready?

Yes, especially on hard paint and especially on lighter colors.

Yes I guess, I applied ultimate polish on a test area but saw no results so I went straight to the wax.

The label recommends to follow UC with NXT or Ult Wax.The label of the Ultimate polish recommends to use the polish after the UC and then wax.Use them in order Compound/polish/wax and you'll love how it looks.

uc is pad dependant for me so if im heavy cutting, no, its not straight to Lsp...D151 with polishing pad first...

What kind of pad would you be using if doing heavy cutting, orange?

What kind pad would you recommend for it to be LSP ready?

I find yellow 5.5" flat to be very effective on harder clear coat.

Yeah when I was experimenting with the Ultimate line I did a Ultimate compound on half a door. Then the other half I used Ultimate compound and Ultimate Polish. I couldn't see a difference. It was on my Red Toyota

i did a hand correction using euro ccs foam pads (aka man vs machine method) with UC and it finished to what looked LSP ready. although I used UP, it might not have been necessary as I was highly impressed with how UC finished, it was hard to believe it was a compound, since it finished like a polish.
