Guys quick question. What is the working time with SIP & Nano. Is 5 minutes too extreme for SIP? If i am starting to see dust while using UDM does this mean I have over done it? Thanks
 
If Menz polishes start to 'dust' you've worked them for too long

Diminishing Abrasives
Diminishing abrasives require friction, to activate and progressively reduce there size until they become a finite milled dust; they are buffered or cushioned in a lubricating water-based oil film emulsion, usually in a semi-liquid paste. Wet polishes eliminate the heat caused by buffing; heat causes gloss loss.Some very abrasive compound polishes don’t feel abrasive to the touch because the particles are formulated in a solvent or polymer oils in a water-based emulsion and are not released without friction.

The abrasive start off as large particles, which removes the most paint, they are then reduced in size into finer and finer particles, removing progressively less of the paint surface, by the friction caused by the foam pads contact with the paint surface. By varying the size of the abrasive a differing cut is obtained, so the more the abrasives are reduced in size the finer the resultant finish until the particles are reduced to a very fine powder, which in turn produces a burnished surface shine.

It will turn clear with like oil streaks in it, thats when you know you are done.
