People need to remember that M105 doesn't play by the same rules as other compounds as it uses a new and unique non-diminishing abrasive. So, using a little logic one can find ways to get more time out of the product by keeping it wet, and therefor keeping it working.
There is also a way to buff M105 dry, or essentially completely off of the paint and if done properly it leaves a fantastic finish and virtually no removal of product is needed...but this requires a perfect blend of technique, weather, and cooperative finishes/pads. (and a rotary) |
This is what Greg Nichols and I do. We've both come to the conclusion that we get better results doing it this way than trying to either keep it wet or re-wet it to extend the working time. He taught me this method, actually. It's much easier to watch someone do it than to try and explain it on the forum.
The first time I saw him do it, I thought he'd spent too much time in the sun. Then he showed me the results... it really does work very well.
