Product description
Heavy cutting compound
The first step to a flawless correction.
A heavy-cut compound that physically levels the clear coat around deep defects, rather than hiding them, so the improvement lasts instead of washing out.
See the difference
Same bonnet, one tin. The left half is chalky, faded and swirled; the right half has been cut with Auto 1000 and the colour and reflections are back.
