can i tcut my china? - kingy - 20-05-2012

You can but there's much better stuff out there. If you just want a polish, get some Auto Glym SRP. But remember you'll need to go over it with a wax afterwards

If I was you I'd just srp it. You paint isn't damaged or anything if you just want the shine give it a good polish with srp. And then wax will bring it up lovely

SRP uses fillers to mask and fill swirls the oils and resins are like a temp wax and enhancer sort of Auto Glyms all in on polish and wax. which is why its always best to follow up with a wax. eventually the resins and oils wear down and leave oily residue and the paint becomes duller
A compound purely removes the swirls and defects in the paint removes "dead" clear coat to revive the shine (hate that word) which is why its more important to protect it with a wax as all that happens is the fresh clear coat you have exposed soon becomes dead again.
