It's a very good polish, water based and contains no abrasives, the level of cut is dependent on the pad used. It doesn't leave a finish, it removes scratches, swirls and oxidation so you need to finish with a wax or sealant.

I have some and it is excellent. However my Lexus has really hard paint so I would have had a million times better results using a machine.

Speedfreek sorry bud but your find Lexus paint to be very soft, unless its been resprayed

In that case, p1 is rubbish lol. I was rubbing like a goodun and it got a lot out but still left a few feint scratches.
Still think the true test is on a machine though

Most Jap paints are soft. It doesn't matter what polish you use if applying by hand it's going to be VERY hard work. So much easier with DA/Rotary

I use GTechnique & it's brilliant, if your careful & not using wool you can actually get away with not doing a second stage polish to get rid of marring saving time. I was using Menzerna polishes on my IS220d but Gtechnique is my new weapon of choice. I've even just bought the glass polish & sealant to try so I'll let you all know results when done.
