Hi Temp EXPCL

[SVR]

While surfing the net the other night, I found a site of a company in Panama City Florida who sell Hi Temp and other interesting products and do ship internationally

So I sent them an email and they actually responded quite quickly
Anyways I saw listed on their site, Extreme Power Cut plus leveller.

Is this stronger than extreme cut leveler?
Both claim 600 grit removal.

Also if using this with strong foam and wool, would this remove too much clearcoat on previously polished cars?
I won't provide the link to site or name of company for spam reasons

Can't help with any differences/not between that and the regular H-T EC leveler, but I suggest you take the grit-rating with a grain (or a whole shaker full) of salt. The H-T EC isn't all that aggressive IMO, I sometimes wish it were considerable more so. So if I had to guess, something a bit stronger would be pretty safe.

Yeah, the last time I ordered HTEC from topoftheline, it came with the name on it from the OP's post.

They do the name changing all the time with their medium cut polish, too. Seems like they keep changing between .357 Magnum and Medium Cut.

Don't you mean the *heavy* cut = 357 My bottle says 357 but IIRC it's supposed to be the Heavy Cut.

Doh! that's exactly what I mean. Thanks for the catch.

Matt, it is always better to follow their numbers!

Got a linky?

I've found them! Sent a message - hopefully they answer quickly.

Today I noticed how low I'm running on my HTEC. BTW I used it on an Accord with a Menzerna orange pad and my Bosch short throw high speed DA on speed 6 and it corrected really good and LSP-ready.

UPDATE

After the HTEC Plus sitting on the shelf for months without much use (using menzerna big time), a friend came around with a severly neglected 1997 VT Commodore

So out came the HTEC as it didn't matter if we burnt the paint
After trying PG with wool to no avail, the ultimate combo did the job

HTEC and Edge black wool. Spread at 600, straight to 1700 for 30 seconds then back to 1000
All marks totally gone and just a few swirls from the wool
I really love the Edge wool

We finished off with IP and 106 and Driven quick spray at 1000 rpm
So I got excited to keep playing with the product

A few days later a green original paint Rover RV8 came in with some very nasty scratches
The Edge yellow and HTEC for 40 seconds wiped them all out

So this is my now go to leveler and I'm loving it
I'm just about to order some HT Smooth cut and the CCS euro hand pads from Auto Pro detail products tomorrow

They are terrific people to deal with

SVR- Ah, thanks for that. I'll have to try the Edge wool/HT-EC next time I'm working on the M3.

Heh heh, with all the fuss about M105 these days the EC hasn't been getting much attention but I'm not about to just let it sit on the shelf while I try every new product in town

Yeah... that's *my* job.

HTEC is genial and dirt cheap.

i have used HTEC with an orange pad on a rotary, then 83 on a orange pad with PC on two different sections...the PC side was more clear and removed more defects...both worked unltil wet cleared, then wiped off...this was on a chrystler coupe...I was shocked...I was only doing a two step, so I didnt want to bring out the wool on it...any thoughts?
