Re: pwf/optimum hyper comp follow up

You're using OHC/PFW on med to soft clear? Something doesn't sound like it's matching up there. However, if it is more along the lines of medium hardness then following up with FPII/White would be your best bet. If it's really soft paint, then PO85rd/White would fit the bill. It will vary from case to case. Try starting out with PO85rd/White and if it's not cleaning it up well enough, go for the FPII/IP/White.

Re: pwf/optimum hyper comp follow up

In my experience the 85rd has more cut on soft/mid than FPII. So do some testing and see what you get. If you have OHC, do you OP? That is a nice mid level polish on white.

Re: pwf/optimum hyper comp follow up

I don't have OP but want to get some soon as I am getting sick of SIP in this weather I can't use it 9 time out of 10 it ll get so sticky...
It s one mitsu evo and the paint is more med then soft, I use PWF or even wool as a first step, as this is my car I am doing a 99% perfection polish, just no wet sand as it is a daily driver and don't want to take off to much clear.
