Comments about 3M 3M Imperial Compound and Finishing Material:
This compound works 3 times better the the Buff Magic I had been using. Not knocking the Buff Magic, but for the amount of oxidation my boat had this stuff worked GREAT! I compounded a 2000 Century 2100DC that appeared to have never been buffed or waxed, and 3M Imperial Compound brought back to a mirror finish.
Comments about 3M 3M Imperial Compound and Finishing Material:
This compound saves me from having to go around the boat and polish again, it does 2 jobs in one, I used to do compounding, then finesse it swirl mark remover, this imperial compounding does it all in one time. It made the hull look new again, and i only had to go around the boat twice not 3 times, a 34' sail boat gets very big when you have to do it 3 times. I used the entire container to do the boat.

Must use foam pad at 2000rpm and do a 2'-3' square area at a time ( credit given to Sail magazine 4/08 by Geoffrey and Pam Shattuck. For perfect results follow their instructions.

Comments about 3M 3M Imperial Compound and Finishing Material:
I am polishing a 16 year old black hull that has faded. First tried to use this product with a Porter Cable random orbital buffer using a foam pad and the results were so so. Then used a 3M wool buffing pad and a Dewalt DW849 buffer and the results are amazing. It is truly a mirror finish.
