    I hope Kevin sees this thread. I have been hugely inspired by the writings, instructions and advice of Kevin Brown. I'm no noob to paint correction but am perplexed at the thought of doing anything more than finish polishing with HD UNO. I have tried on several occasions to cut paint with HD UNO using the suggested less is more school of thought behind everyone's claims. I understand Kevin Browns writing so maybe he can shed a little light on this HD UNO dilemma. I'd like to learn it and now especially since I have a 3D distributor stopping at my shop I'd like to buy it moving forward but it's been an absolute waste of my time so far. I'll stop there so I don't get myself in too much trouble over here since I'm relatively new to this site. Kevin, if you read this and you are able to...Please tell us of your experience using HD UNO.

    I've got a brand new bottle sitting in my storage, err... my West Coast Buff Daddy Warehouse Facility.

    I'll run the stuff today or tomorrow and let you know what I find.

    Foam pads? Microfiber? Wool?

    Edit: THANKS FOR THE KIND WORDS !!!


    Paint polishing is a learned craft, not an art form.
    Realizing this is the most important step one can make towards becoming a better paint polisher!

    Hey man, you've talked to me and inspired me through some tough times and your writings have helped me to cut my paint correction times in half. You my friend have earned the kind words for sure.

    I'm leaning toward microfiber. I just got a dozen more 5" cutting discs. If I'm going to learn a new to me product I might as well do it with the new machine that the manufacturer has just introduced to the industry.

    Thanks Kevin, I eagerly await your findings.

    Dave, FYI, the UNO you're referring to is different than the new UNO Advanced Cut.

    I just got a sample of the new stuff 2 weeks ago from the local 3D distributor. You saying a newer version came out in the last 2 weeks?

    Ohhh, ok. I thought you were referring to the gallon of product you got from Barry.

    Yeah, the distributor just decanted a few ounces into a yorker bottle and left it with me to try out. I tried it with a rotary and foam light cutting pad using just a few pea sized drops like everyone says to do and it just wasn't working for me. I'm going to shift my efforts to the DA polisher with this stuff for a while.

    The reviews have been mixed with UNO AC. I like M101/M105/D300 better.

    So there's a new Uno? Man, I can't keep up with this stuff...I thought the old(?) version cut fine with a MF cutting disk, not M105 but still OK.

    There is no new version. The last change was last year.

    Ah, OK...but I wonder where my bottle falls

    I got mine from..oh sheesh, when was it?!?...late last year (the "first to attain 30K posts" contest), so I'm guessing it's the current version.
