Paint defects like severe oxidation, thick scratches, and marring sometimes need more than a standard compound can deliver. Pro Cut is formulated for exactly that level of correction, holding its cut through the entire job instead of breaking down halfway through like a diminishing compound.

How It Works

Pro Cut uses non-diminishing silicon dioxide abrasives that maintain consistent cutting power from the first pass to the last. That means predictable correction across every panel, not just the first one.

For shops, that predictability translates directly into labor time: less re-working panels, more vehicles through the bay per hour. For anyone running it themselves, that same consistency means less guesswork and less heat buildup than aggressive compounds that lose control as they thin out.

This compound cuts fast. Technique, pressure, and working time management matter here more than with a lighter compound, like Pro Shine. Use Pro Cut for automotive, aerospace, industrial, or marine applications.

What You Get

• Non-diminishing SiO2 abrasives that hold cutting power
• Predictable, consistent correction across multiple panels
• Easily removes severe oxidation, dead paint, and marring without excess heat buildup
• Compatible with wool, microfiber, or foam pads on rotary or dual-action machines

How To Use A Non-Diminishing Compound

If you’re unsure of the effects of Pro Cut on your paint, test the compound on a small, less noticeable section first.

1. Wash the surface fully before polishing
2. Apply Pro Cut to a polishing pad (we recommend trying wool) for maximum cut on severe defects
3. Work in manageable sections with a rotary or DA polisher, managing pressure and working time carefully
4. Wipe clean and inspect the finish under direct light before moving to the next panel.
5. Follow with Pro Shine to refine and finish the correction

Blow out or clean the pad between sets to prevent clumping and micro-marring. Running a full correction-to-coating job? Follow with Panel Prep before applying Silver or Gold.

FAQ

How do I know if I need Pro Cut instead of Pro Shine?
For light marring and minor swirls, try Pro Shine’s diminishing formula. For severe oxidation or defects that need real cutting power, try our secret weapon, Pro Cut.

Why does technique matter more with this compound?
Because it cuts fast and doesn’t diminish. A lighter compound gives you more forgiveness as it breaks down; Pro Cut holds its abrasive power the entire time, so pressure and working time need to be managed deliberately.

Will heavy cutting leave marring or holograms behind?
Yes, if you stop after Pro Cut alone, holograms are likely at this cut level. Following with Pro Shine removes the marring and refines the finish.
