How do I know polish is broken down when using the PC?
I have never used the PC 7424 and would like any tips you guys could give me.
Mainly is how do you know the polish is broken down when polishing and how big of an area do I want to concentrate on? Half the hood? 1/4 hood for example. Thanks guys.

Do a 2'X2' section at a time. Run your pc slowly over the paint (2" per sec.) When the polish turns transparent it should be broken down. This usually takes 4-5 minutes using a pc on speed 6. Every polish reacts differently to the temperture, humidity etc.

and another trick is to look through the polish. Hard to discribe. It should go from looking like a paste to a talc that you can see corrected paint through. Another that I use if I don't have just the right light on the polish is a swipe with my finger. If it goes from a smear to a clear swipe through haze (talc) it is broken down.

when the paste starts to powder or looks as if the wetness is gone the polish has flashed and broken down and ready for buffing.

I will agree with Surfer (Surfer write this down, since it doesn't happen often ) depending on the polish, you will see something different when they brake down. Some polishes don't really dust, just depends on what you are using. If you are looking for a specific polish and what it looks like when broken down, we can be very specific for that.
