Shine Supply Flat Top Compound

An aggressive cutting compound, with no fillers.

Shine Supply Flat Top is a truly unique cutting compound with a short cycle time, delivering an aggressive, efficient cut. It works brilliantly with any DA polisher and can achieve a one-step finish on a variety of paint types. Shine Supply developed it for hard clear coats, such as those on many European cars, where it finishes to a near-mirror on a dual action polisher.

You can achieve brilliant results with microfiber pads using this compound, and thanks to its dry formulation, wipe-off is ridiculously easy. The difference with Flat Top is that it uses triple-filtered agglomerates: the abrasives are tumbled and purified three times, giving them extremely smooth, refined edges. As they break down, they refine the finish as a fine polish would, rather than marring it.

This means the cutting process is easier, quicker and more efficient than ever before. Available in 473 mL and 3.78 L bottles.

Features

• Very easy wipe-off
• Finishes down to an incredible gloss (can even one-step some paint systems)
• Very high level of cut
• Extremely efficient and versatile

Directions

1. Use a microfiber cutting pad on a dual action polisher. Flat Top is not recommended for rotary polishers, as it flashes and dries quickly.
2. Prime the pad with product in an outer and an inner circle.
3. Spread over a section of about 60 x 60 cm on speed 5.
4. Make two slow passes with moderate pressure.
5. Add four small dots of product and work the same section for two more passes without pressure.
6. Wipe off the residue and follow with a polish.
