Ya that's why I wanted to try them. But these are definitely "top shelf" polishes.

The next time I run into hard clear, I'll be sure to document how they perform. I have a Toyota MR2 scheduled next, then a Lexus. I don't expect either of those to have a hard clear - but we all know...you never know until you perform a test spot. I have a feeling it'll do great when paired with a microfiber pad, or even a thin LC Foamed Wool pad.
If anyone else has experience with these polishes on hard clear, please chime in. (I know RaskyR1 had a lot of experience with these polishes)
All of my testing on the Civic was done with a Porter Cable 7424xp by the way. I'm waiting for a G15 to show up as an open box deal

I feel the BOSS polishes really excel on the harder paints, or maybe that's just it's because it's what I see most often.
Fast Correct paired with Fast Cut MF or even the BOSS MF pads cuts and finishes very well, and with no dusting.

This VW GTI that Kevin recently did was cut with Fast Correct cream and he has a nice 50/50 in his thread.

OP / Lonnie - If you like M105/205, you'll absolutely love HD Cut & Polish.
HD Cut will cut as well or better than M105 and create barely any dust. Super long work time (if desired) and removal is extremely easy unlike M105 cementing itself to the surface/cracks.
HD Polish is the benchmark for finishing polishes IMHO. No other polish finishes as well, is as easy to work/remove and doesn't leave any nasty residue behind. This product should be in everyone's arsenal. M205 may have more cutting power (when used in extreme workflows), but doesn't hold a candle to HD Polish in the finishing department (where it matters).
2 totally different products designed to perform 2 totally different tasks.
Adapt is a compounding polish designed to level heavy defects and finish out flawlessly.
AAT Polish is a finishing polish designed to remove the halograms/hazing made by AAT Rubbing Compound.
Both cut and finish very well, but the edge goes to Adapt for cutting and AAT Polish for finishing.

I recently coated my car and opted for just a fine polish since I'd compounded and polished 3 months prior. I test spotted WG finishing glaze next to HD polish and was amazed that HD polish looked better in addition to being a lot easier to work with. Great stuff!
