If you need a rocks-in-a-bottle compound, their Extra Cut is OK but it does dust a lot.



The Showcar Paste Wax got reformulated a while back, I haven't tried the new version but the old stuff is nice.



The PI-III twins (05933 RC and 05937 MG) were my standard recommendation for ages, but these days I'd go with something else.



If you use their PI-II Fine Cut Rubbing Compound (I forget the number..), be sure to wear the proper mask as it contains silica based abrasives (which can kill you just like asbestos).

We can still get Perfect It III here in Canada. Machine Glaze is still one of my favorite light/medium abrasives. Works great by hand. I replaced Perfect It III Rubbing Compound with Megs Ultimate Compound.

I haven't tried the Meg's UC, but I do like their M105. Very different from PI-III RC though, whole 'nother league cut-wise.



I've recently been thinking that the PI-III MG doesn't *quite* leave a nice enough finish; I think a quick pass with something like a Menzerna finishing polish would be more satisfying for me. It's the sort of thing I never thought about before playing around with other stuff.
