I got my sample the other day so I tried it on the hood of my 09 XB, I have a Flex 3401 (I had to be carefull cause the pad was smaller than the BP). I was trying to take pictures of it but it is white and super hard to capture the swirls in it. I did post pictures of the door from a 69 Ghia that hasn`t been touched in god knows how long.
This was after one pass (on the left) with little pressure.

This was after two passes, this pass I put quite a bit of pressure down.

You can see the difference, the deeper scratches and rids weren`t taken completely out but it cleaned up nicely.

The right side I decided to try out SIP on a white LC to see how it compared. After two passes, I don`t think the it had the clarity that HDU left after two passes. Plus SIP doesn`t have HALF of the work time that HDU has. This stuff is like OP, it just keeps on going.

I made another pass on the right side but this time with HDU

You can see the drastic change in this picture.

The only problem I had with the polish was on the edge of the passes I was doing, if you didn`t overlap them the polish was hard to take off cause I guess it wasn`t broke down enough. After a full pass when I was done it left like shadows of where the pad had been It may have been the humidity, or the heat caused by the lamps but this was when I was working on the Scion not the door. On the Scion I did one pass and it worked well, but the second pass with pressure it took out whatever was left(swirls). There were a scratch or two that didn`t come out but removing the swirls worked very well. I like the polish cause it works well, the passes are smooth, and removing the polish(on the door) was pretty easy. I want to try it on my girlfriends VW CC and see what happens since I`m hearing the harder the clear the better. I hope this helps
