Optimum line of polishes

[JaredPointer]

I am using a variety of polishes on a "test basis" on the vehicle I am currently working on. Basically, I have some samples of various polishes and wanted to try them out to see which ones I like best.

I have a question about Optimum Compound and Optimum Hyper Compound. Which is the more aggressive of the two? Instinctively i think the Hyper Compound, but I used both on a panel and they seemed to remove about the same amount of defect (in the 85-90% range with one pass) with little to no hazing. I tried the website, but couldn't really tell from there. Someone with some Optimum experience wanna chime in and help a brother out?

You are correct, Hyper is the most aggressive of the three Optimum polishes followed by the compound and then the polish.

Optimum reformulated them a couple of years back, so you might want to check with whoever sent you the samples to see if they are the new or old formulas.
