The progression is engineered: each stage clears the marring left by the previous stage, then sets up the next. Cutting Compound flattens the deep defects but leaves marring. Polishing Compound clears the cutting marks but leaves micro-haze. Finishing Compound clears the haze and brings the paint to mirror gloss.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsing them out of sequence, or skipping stages, defeats the calibration. The three-step system is the right approach for full paint correction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"color: #0e7a42; border-left: 4px solid #22c55e; padding: 4px 0 4px 16px; margin-top: 24px;\"\u003eUse it for\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFull paint correction on a heavily oxidised vehicle, restoring deep gloss to a 5+ year-old daily driver, prep for a long-term ceramic coating, learning paint correction with a calibrated set rather than mixing-and-matching compounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"color: #0e7a42; border-left: 4px solid #22c55e; padding: 4px 0 4px 16px; margin-top: 24px;\"\u003eHow to use\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStep 1: Cutting Compound on a foam cutting pad, work until clear, wipe.
