Anyone else thought a lot about this? What is the ammount of time you have to spend with something like FI-II to get the results out of it? I know people here can spend anywhere from 45 minutes to 3+ hours buffing a car with a PC and FI-II. Does the extra time give extra results?
If no one has the answer i'll volunteer to test this. My guess is after working the compound in for 3 minutes or so it's done all it will, and additional buffing won't really get you anywhere. I noticed this on the viper i did, black paint with a good mix of deep and not so deep swirls. The not so deep ones came out in a few minutes, but the deep ones didn't really seem to budge if i spent any extra time (or even made extra passes). I'll test this with FI-II and bf polish, with my 500 watt work lights and sunlight, with lots of photos. I'm gunna run down to the body shop right now and see if i can get the hood of my civic.. i don't think it's reusable anymore. I'll post updates.
