Über compound?

Got a free sample of Wolfgang Uber compound 3 and was wondering what the consensus was before I tried it.

Hey Steve do you have any of the following problems with your paint.

Wolfgang Uber Compound is able to remove up to 1200 grit sanding marks, heavy swirl marks, oxidation, and water spots without dulling or hazing even the softest paint systems.

I could probably use some on my car for sure

I only have minor scratches from normal care here in Germany. I'm gonna do the whole car once it stops snowing for good here. I may even take the stripes off so I will need to strip and fix anyway.

Thanks. She's actually up for sale locally. With retirement looming in August and a change in career and move from Europe back to the states it's something that I just have to do. Trust me, I don't want to and I will miss her but she's gotta head off to let someone else enjoy her. If she doesn't sell then one day she will be epic. But it will work out the way it's supposed to I guess. Until then though, I will enjoy every mile. Cheers.

Were you the one I asked to post pics of the area you live in a while back? If not post some pics of Germany please. The first thing people always say to me when I sell a car is man is that thing shinny = sold.

Not best pictures but I got a bottle recently and like it. I used my griots with a LC orange pad.
This is on my winter beater slash practice detailing car lol.
Took these deep scratches out with out a problem and left a nice clean finish.

Do you also have the white and gray pads? If anything, I would pass back at it with the gray pad and a very fine polish. Orange pad with a compound works great for cutting but you gotta go back with a fine. There's a thread I made here somewheres when I did mine. Took 4 days but came out beautiful. Wish I could link it with the app.

Yes I have a white pad but I was just doing a test spot on this car otherwise I would have followed up with with Uber AIO or some other polish. This cars paint is in bad shape and has clear coat failure.
Thanks for the info!
