You can`t compare N ultra cutting compound to an ultra finishing polish.

It really depends on the paint hardness and pad used. I will say that I was able to finish out hologram free with M101 and a W8207 polishing pad on a rotary, where a MF pad (both types) hazed the paint.



As aggressive as M101 is, I find that it is able to finish out very well, even on soft paints. It is no PO85RD finish, but for a deep scratch busting compound, it`s excellent.

No comparison to 85rd at all, but if you wanted a comparison then I`d compare it to 105...except that it cuts faster and leaves a better finish behind on most paints.

How`s the dust/mess factor compared to 105?

It can get dusty, but I haven`t been able to spot any filling, so that`s the tradeoff

I guess. A dab of d300 will help knock the dust factor down.

So it is high on the scale of cutting power???

Without a doubt. Killer cutting power. IMO.
