Re: Rubbing compound

"Rubbing Compound" is an old single-stage name for a product that removed scratches when rubbed into the paint with a terry towel.

On clearcoated paints, rubbing compounds need to be followed with a finishing polish. I would highly recommend avoiding the use of a compound by hand, they're really only for rotary use by a skilled user.

I would avoid using Turtle Wax rubbing compound...ever.
