I have a bunch! I've used it exclusively since I did a review on it a month or so ago and have been using it on and off for about 6 months. http://www.autopiaforums.com/forums/detailing-product-reviews/38936-hd-uno-review.html . Hope that helps if you have any questions feel free to ask!

Nice review!!!!! :rockon :bigups
One thing I've been reading a lot about UNO is, if you use too much, it has a huge effect on cut. As you said, less is definitely more!! Barry Theal recommended using one dime sized drop when more polish is needed.
Do you review UNO v4?
I'm new to machine polishing but have had great results with UNO V4. As mentioned less is more--prime the pad with 3 pea size drops then add just 1 pea sized drop for the next section. Flat pads work best (no CCS pads) - I use Buff and Shine 5.5" with my GG DA. On my VW clear I tried an Orange pad--did six passes at speed 5.5 with moderate pressure then 2 passes at light pressure and it is LSP ready, but then did 4 passes with a green pad and it was even better. I've had no dusting or caking what so ever--clean pad on the fly after every 2 sections. If you search around on Autopia.org you'll find allot more info from pros. Some are using it with PFW pads with great success. In general though less is more and UNO likes pad speed.
It's a great product for newbie/weekend detailers like myself--$18 gets enough UNO (16 OZ) to do 4-6 cars and even includes a free bottle of POXY sealant/wax hybrid which really has a great look.

Let us know Mark on how you like it. When one uses too much of product it will affect the cutting ability alot.

Not sure about different labels but the newest version just came out this week.
V4 will be right on the lable.

I don't think so Mark. If you weren't really versed with the product how would you know about the different labels. I have know idea what the third version of MS looked like but I know what the newest one does.
At least thats the way I took it.

No he's not. The v5 will have a completely different label than v4 has, and it's not even going to start shipping until the 16th, or so 3D says.
I don't know what changes were made to the label between v3 and v4 but I'm pretty sure it is noted. The v3 I have is a pre-release lab sample, and my v4 is the retail bottle.

I got mine last summer, so it's not the latest. Thanks. I like the version I have, it works well.

Not all that long, I don't think.... 6-8 months maybe? My memory is failing me on an exact date.

After reading Jsmooths review I was just about to order some but held off. Glad I did now, another couple of weeks isn't going to matter for me. One good thing I've learned from the post is that thee are options to the pads used. I was thinking or was under the belief that you needed their pads to get the best results. Has anyone used it with a rotary or is a DA the way to go?
