Seems a reasonable price for a fantastic product! Slightly cheaper elsewhere, but usually involves paying delivery.

I recently came across this product and used it to restore white paint on my car - came up brand new with a random orbital polisher and foam pad.

Finished off with hand applying the Ulimate Wax.

I'd recommend this product to anyone who needs to restore their paint - this product will do it, but not damage paint during the process. Can't speak highly enough of it.

It can also restore faded/yellowed headlights too. I also use Ulimate Wax on the headlights to give UV protection to prolong them going yellowing again.

      Around $34 to $36 per bottle.

        thanks.

  • stratbargain on 10/02/2020 - 12:27

    Same price at Repco at the moment if you have a store closer than super cheap

  • Quarn on 10/02/2020 - 12:52

    How does this compare to T-cut, in your opinion?

  • Rhubarb Jones on 10/02/2020 - 12:54

    How far does 1 bottle go? Do a full car no worries?

      Assuming you are cutting with a machine and not by hand - yes, you should be able to get at least 5 cars out of 1 bottle.

    Anyone recommend a random Orbital polisher?

    • YellowDieselGolf on 10/02/2020 - 13:11

      I bought one of the 150mm single handed Rockwell ones recently for about $30.

      Goes great! Easy to use and not too powerful. Works well on freshly painted and sanded panels.

  • pyr0maniac on 10/02/2020 - 15:26

    Bit of a noob here - would this be ideal if used by hand to remove swirls and fine scratches from a white car? Paint is otherwise in good condition.

      Have tried it and get the job done easily on fine scratches.

  • yikes914 on 10/02/2020 - 17:35

    would this be better than ScratchX 2.0 to remove clear coat scratches around the door handle on a dark metallic colour?

    bought a used 4wd in good mechanical condition but has a fair bit of scratches and looking to get rid of them, majority are just light-medium depth clear coat scratches

      In my opinion scratch X is more a filler rather than a polisher. It will only remove the slightest of scratches. Never used the MUC yet, but expecting it to cut for, thus removing the scratches.

      • yikes914 on 11/02/2020 - 08:24

        alright, i'll give that a go, thanks

    • F1ProjectOne on 11/02/2020 - 14:17

      This one is harsher than Scratch X 2.0. For best results, use this one first, then a polish. For deeper scratches, wet sanding may be required first.

  • YellowDieselGolf on 10/02/2020 - 17:40

    I would start with scratchx. I believe this is more aggressive.

    • yikes914 on 10/02/2020 - 19:31

      i have a few deeper ones so wouldn't ultimate Compound be better to deal with both types at once?

  • tdw on 10/02/2020 - 20:54

    I use this ultimate compound first for scratches. Then if it doesn't have the effect I want, I move on to scratchx. All done by hand but obviously would be quicker with a machine

    I also use Ulimate Wax on the headlights to give UV protection to prolong them going yellowing again.

    You'd have to keep reapplying every few months. A couple of coats of 2k clear would be longer lasting solution

    • placard on 10/02/2020 - 21:01

      I agree re the clear coat, but I've heard mixed reviews of it - some say it streaks on application, others say it affects the light beam. So I'd rather just take a few minutes to wipe some wax over them every few months.

      • tdw on 10/02/2020 - 21:13

        yeah, like any paint, it would need to be polished after application. i wonder if they did that..? having a good even application makes it easier to begin with.
