CLEAR CUT.\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eClassic Cut is our everyday diminishing-abrasive compound and the one we run on roughly 90% of the cars that come through the shop. It removes moderate scratches and defects, then breaks down as you work it to leave a clean, clear finish. Built with zero fillers and a low-dusting formula, it holds up in sun, heat, and humidity, which makes it the workhorse you reach for first on most soft and hard clear coats.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiminishing abrasive:\u003c\/strong\u003e The first passes cut hard to knock down defects, then the abrasives break down finer to refine the finish in the same set.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNo fillers, no hiding:\u003c\/strong\u003e Silicone free and wax free, so what you correct is real, not defects masked under oils that wash away later.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLow dusting:\u003c\/strong\u003e Stays put on the panel and the pad instead of coating your whole work area.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePads we pair with it:\u003c\/strong\u003e Microfiber cutting pad or the Tango microfiber cutting pad on a dual action, or a wool pad on a rotary.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWorks in the heat:\u003c\/strong\u003e The formula keeps cycling in direct sun, warm temperatures, and humidity without flashing or drying out.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNot sure which compound or polish is right for your job?\u003c\/strong\u003e Our full guide breaks down every one, with cut and finish ratings, the pads we pair with each, and what to follow it with. 👉 \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/shinesupply.mom\/blogs\/news\/compounds-and-polishes-guide\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRead the Compound \u0026amp; Polish Guide\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e →\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to Use\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrime the pad with an outer and inner circle of product and rub it thoroughly into the pad face.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpread the product over a 2 ft by 2 ft area.
