Do you QD after you polish because there`s so much dust do you just use a MF towel to wipe all the dust off? I know driving at 75/80 mph for 10min doesn`t get rid of all the dust.

Haha, easy solution. Ill be using Optimum and Menzerna soon. XMT dusts a good amount, no where near as much as PB SSR`s or CG Diamond cut though.

Dust, dust and more dust. That`s my experiences with menz ip at least. I wear a particle mask sometimes, that`s how much it dusts on me. But i love the results i get with it.

Optimum Polish, on the other hand, does have very minimal to no dusting.

yea but all of the corrective products dust. So is washing the best solution since? I live in an apt so it`s not easy for me to wash my car.

Actually - Optimum Polish has pretty good corrective abilities for a non-compound and it does not dust much at all. Just a quick wipe with a QD and a MF towel after using OP and you`ll be good to go - no washing necessary IMO.

I haven`t used PB`s polishes - but it is my understanding that they do dust a good bit.

If I do wash my car after polish I`d actually have to drive to a Coin Op. That means two trips to the Coin op... -__-;;

Rubbing compounds and polishes ARE dust. The liquid is merely a "solvent" medium used to distribute the dust, and usually evaporates quickly. If you are going to do more than wax your car, you will likely be producing dust. Don`t forget to tape off the seams of your engine bay. Dust gets everywhere under the hood.

cool thanks for that tip. ok i guess i should focus my question a bit more. would QD after polish be SAFE or would i just be marring up my paint again?
