    Heh heh, appreciated that "this independent.."

    Doesn`t surprise me that the M305 worked fine, not like Meguiar`s is gonna get that wrong (and for decades my fave for repaints was their M05 New Car Glaze).

    Guess it doesn`t surprise me that the OCW is easier, just given the nature of the stuff. I always thought M05 was the easiest product ever, but ya just can`t beat W-O-W-O with OCW.

    Yeah, agree! And I`ve had lots of paints continue to harden for a lot longer than that. I always figure that as long as the paint is changing I shouldn`t risk affecting [whatever those changes are].
