Re: Review: Wolfgang Uber Compound
My comments...
I've used a lot of compounds in my life and most never worked as well as the abrasive technology used in the Wolfgang Uber Compound. In the past, anytime you used a compound you expected to see a scoured looking finish. Of course the original defects would be removed but now you would have to remove the swirls and scratches left behind by the compound.
Not so with the Wolfgang Uber Compound. This compound cuts fast and finishes down like a fine cut polish. It has a long buffing cycle and at least on this BMW's paint, the wipe-off was easy.
I's say from the way the product buffed and the residue that built-up on the pad this is a concentrated compound, by this I mean a little product cuts a long way. Until you get a feel for it I'd recommend underusing it instead of overusing it.
I normally use the Flex 3401 on the 6.0 setting for doing correction work, I found this compound worked well at the 4-5 speed range with only medium to firm pressure.
I have not had a chance to use this new compound with wool pads on rotary buffers yet but I will in the weeks to come and everyone that is attending the upcoming Detailing Boot Camp Class, (sold out), will have a chance to test out this new compound on one of our project cars.
This is a great addition to the Wolfgang line of concours quality products. The Wolfgang Total Swirl Remover, (a medium cut polish) and the Wolfgang Finishing Glaze, (a fine cut polish) are great polishes that in the past were more than capable of tackling most car detailing projects for most people. With the addition of a true aggressive compound, the Wolfgang Concours Series is now a very well rounded-out line that will enable you to pick and choose just the right level of cut for your detailing project.
Because all three of these products are Body Shop Safe, they are completely safe for use in body shops (fresh paint environments) as well as safe for use on fresh paint.
Look for some future projects here at Autogeek's Show Car Garage where we'll be putting the new Wolfgang Trio to the test!

Re: Review: Wolfgang Uber Compound
If I had to guess I would say it is closely related to Menzerna FG400 in terms of cut and finish.

My thoughts exactly. Putting an order so I could compare.

Can't wait to see your results. So far I love FG400.
I wonder what the difference would be. From my understanding Menzerna makes Wolfgang correct?

Yes Menzerna makes the Wolfgang line as well as the BlackFire line.

The only Wolfgang products affiliated with Menzerna are Total Swirl Remover, Finishing Glaze, and Uber Compound.
Menzerna does not manufacture anything for BLACKFIRE.
