HVY Cut Compound
Engineered benefits
Serious defect removal
Levels deep scratches, P1500+ sanding marks and heavy oxidation.
Fast cut, long worktime
High initial bite with an open working window for full panels.
Low dust formula
Wipes clean between sets, less rework, cleaner inspection.
Rotary and DA stable
Behaves on both machines with wool or aggressive foam.
Predictable finish-down
Leaves a tight haze profile MediumCut clears in one pass.
System-matched
Step 1 of the Prismax 3-step cut for repeatable results across crews.
Application protocol
Prep the panel
Washed, decontaminated, taped and inspected under proper light.
Prime the pad
Wool or cutting foam, primed, pea-sized beads per section.
Work the set
Rotary at 800 RPM with moderate pressure, crosshatch until the cut finishes.
Wipe and assess
Inspect under sun-match light, then refine with MediumCut.
Technical data
Field questions
On softer clears HVY may finish down acceptably, but the system intent is HVY for cut, then MediumCut/MirrorGlaze for refinement, plan two steps minimum on inspection-grade work.
A modern low-dust emulsion: body-shop safe and silicone-free, so it will not contaminate paint booths.
Three to four pea-sized beads per 50 cm section; over-dosing slows the cut and gums the pad.
Blow or brush the pad every set, a loaded pad caps cut rate and heats the panel.
