I`ve got about 10 hours logged on my new PC so I`m still a big time noob on it. I`ve been using 3M FI-II and SMR, and I`m about to try PI-II RCFC. The SMR seems really easy to work with and it does seem to buff itself out relatively quickly once it starts to dry a bit and then it cleans up really easy with a couple wipes of the MF. The FI-II however has been a PITA! I work a 2X2 area for a couple or three minutes and it starts to dry. When I pass back over a section with the PC it looks wet and then dry quickly. I went as far as to keep "working" it until a section just barely looked wet after a pass and almost insantly dried. I try to wipe the section off with a MF and it is really hard. It leaves an oily look and I can`t really see if I`ve gotten all the swirl. Before I MF, the section is completely covered with the FI-II and doesn`t seem to buff out at all on its own. Do I need to work it even more? When do you stop working it? How dry is too dry, when will I start to harm the paint/pad? Will the PI-II be about the same as the FI-II as far as ease of use? Thanks.
