Super expensive, but a very nice compound. Cut good, finishes great, no dust and very user friendly. However, it must be worked longer to get the best results from it. Great compound, but not my first choice for time sensitive details.

Apex detail has a great series where he compares cutting compounds if you haven’t seen it.

One I’m interested in trying out personally is hd cut+

I bought it along with a few others, so going to try them out and see how they do, if I don't like them, well oh well. I can always go back to D300

LOL...I know that feeling. Gotta try for yourself to really know. Which others did you buy?

I've tried all but the Gyeon.
PA:could have polished that panel all day, never dried out.
400: nice but the smell and couldn't get the pads clean, they stunk like gas !
Jescar: Very nice, not too much or too little oil, but was noticeable during wipe off.
I used a foamed wool pad and surprisingly had almost zero dust. Hit it w/ MF pad and could have gone to an LSP.

So Cruz, I have to ask you. You said in another thread that 99 percent of your jobs are AIO. Do you sometimes make a few compound passes before the AIO on messed up cars? If so, what's your strategy to keep the time in a salable area.

Oh, one more thing. Is there a reason McKee's Fast Cut hasn't been mentioned yet?

Both cut well on a microfiber pad. FG 400 seems work a little longer without drying out. D300 seems to cut a little faster. I love them both but if I could only have one it would be FG 400. FG 400 works better on a foam pad compared to d300 which I only use on microfiber cutting pads.

So, the above is correct, but as of late I've been doing less of the AIOs and I've worked to change how I'm viewed as a detailer and have changed my competition. Because of this I now for the moment have a need to compound note often

I’ve used PA Master Compound. I didn’t care for it. It just wouldn’t cut like a compound. I would call it more of a heavy polish. PA needs to stick to waxes, sealants, and coatings where they really shine. A company rarely does everything great.
