    XMT 3 dusting

    Finally got a chance to polish my SUV. It looks great! I was using XMT 3 and XMT 360. For some reason, the XMT 3 was dusting like crazy. I tried everything; priming, not priming new pad, old pad, more polish, less polish, large area,... you get the idea. Is this normal for XMT 3? By the way I am using LC CCS pads (orange).

    Also XMT 360 is great!

    I know personally Optimum Compound and Polish don't dust for me, could have sworn I read people comparing it to Optimum for the no dusting?

    does optimum have a good cut to it?
