SMRs

[Sherman8r44]

OK, I have questions about four different SMR`s



1. Does DP Super Swirl Eliminator haze? How well does it finish? What pad(s) should be used with it?



2. Same as #1, but pertaining to Optimum Compound?



3. Does WG Total Swirl remover have enough power to compete with the above two? What pad(s) should be used with it?



4. Does Mother`s Powerpolish have enough power to compete with the above three? Does it have fillers?



I have a B&D RO, I know it`s no PC but 4400 opm and at least 1 amp sure beats hand polishing. TIA!

anyone????

I think you`re going to have trouble finding someone that has tried all of those.



I`ve used lots of products, but I haven`t used any of those.



I`m going to take a few guesses for you though.



Assuming that your question is asking if those first two products are aggressive enough to cause hazing, I think Optimum compound would haze. Compounds are generally pretty aggressive products, and will often leave hazing.



I doubt Mothers PowerPolish would haze, or be close to Optimum Compound, because I believe the Mothers is a consumer-line product. That means that people are likely to use it by hand, and Mothers would be foolish to put strong abrasives in the product.

Mothers Powerpolish is quite strong and the bottle advises machine application. It`s close to SSR2.5 in abrasiveness (but not quite) and finishes up almost as well, ie. very little haze.

Haven`t used the others.

Thanks for the clarification. I didn`t realize the PowerPolish was actually a strong SMR.

I have only used the DP SSE, out of the products you list, on Black at the weekend with a light orange cutting pad, no hazing, work it till it just starts to dust.
