GYEON Q²M Compound is a medium-cut paint polish that abrades medium scratches, swirls, and holograms from the clear coat, while simultaneously delivering high gloss – for a flawless paint finish as preparation for coatings or as a standalone polish.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn the three-step paint polishing system, \u003cstrong\u003eGYEON Q²M Compound\u003c\/strong\u003e is the middle step: stronger than a pure finishing polish, but gentler than a heavy-cut compound. It's exactly right for the most common application: removing everyday scratches, swirl patterns, and holograms from machine polishing in one step, while already developing a good level of gloss. The compound is designed for use with a polishing machine and a suitable polishing pad, delivering fast, reproducible results.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMedium Abrasiveness – effective against swirls and everyday scratches.\u003c\/strong\u003e Q²M Compound has just the right abrasive power for the most common paint defects: wash scratches, fine swirl patterns, and light holograms are significantly reduced or completely removed in one polishing pass, without excessive paint removal.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHigh Gloss Development directly from the compounding phase.\u003c\/strong\u003e Many medium-cut compounds leave a dull, matte paint finish after application, which absolutely requires follow-up with a finishing polish. Q²M Compound has improved self-finishing: the gloss level after the compounding phase is already high, which reduces the time required for finish polishing.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLow Dusting – cleaner working in the workshop.\u003c\/strong\u003e The formulation of Q²M Compound minimizes dust generation during polishing – less abrasive dust on the vehicle and in the workshop, cleaner work, and less cleaning effort between polishing steps.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003cblockquote class=\"praxistipp\"\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePractical tip from Detailing1:\u003c\/strong\u003e Use Q²M Compound with a \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/gyeon-q2m-rotary-eccentric-heavy-cut-polierpad\"\u003emedium-cut polishing pad\u003c\/a\u003e on an eccentric polisher (step 6–8).

Q²M Compound (Medium Cut) is suitable for scratches up to a medium depth – everyday swirls, wash scratches, light holograms, and defects that are just barely not felt with a fingernail. For deep scratches, severe holograms, or very hard paints, \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/gyeon-q2m-compound-plus-redefined-heavy-cut-lackpolitur\"\u003eQ²M Compound+\u003c\/a\u003e (Heavy Cut) is used, which removes significantly more paint. As a rule of thumb: always start with the milder compound – if the result is not sufficient, switch to Compound+.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eQ²M Compound in two-step polishing\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe standard program in professional paint detailing is two-step polishing: Step 1 with Q²M Compound or \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/gyeon-q2m-compound-plus-redefined-heavy-cut-lackpolitur\"\u003eQ²M Compound+\u003c\/a\u003e (defect correction), Step 2 with \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/gyeon-q2m-polish-finishing-lackpolitur\"\u003eQ²M Polish\u003c\/a\u003e (finalization and high gloss). Q²M Compound is responsible for the correction step: all defects are removed in this step, with high gloss following in the finishing step. Since Q²M Compound already delivers good gloss development, a one-step approach with Compound may sometimes be possible for paint with fewer defects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003ePolishing Pad Recommendation for Q²M Compound\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor optimal results with Q²M Compound, we recommend a \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/gyeon-q2m-rotary-eccentric-heavy-cut-polierpad\"\u003eHeavy-Cut\u003c\/a\u003e or \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/gyeon-q2m-cut-rotary-eccentric-polierpad\"\u003eCut Polishing Pad\u003c\/a\u003e on an eccentric polisher or a medium-cut pad on a rotary polisher. The pad choice influences the effective abrasiveness: Hard pad + medium-cut polish = higher effective abrasiveness, soft pad + same polish = lower abrasiveness. This allows for flexible adjustment to the degree of defect. After the compound step, change the pad for finish polishing with \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/gyeon-q2m-polish-finishing-lackpolitur\"\u003eQ²M Polish\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eQ²M Compound for different paint hardnesses\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDifferent car brands have different paint hardnesses – German vehicles (BMW, Mercedes, Porsche) often have harder paints than Japanese or Korean ones. For very hard paints, Q²M Compound can be used on a higher machine speed. For soft paints (e.g., many Fiat or Renault models), caution is advised – too high a speed can remove too much paint. The test spot is essential here.
