Car-Chem Medium Cut Compound is our intermediate of 3 stages of cutting compounds.
Developed in-house by our technical department. Our Medium Cut Compound is formulated with diminishing abrasive chemistry. This means the particles of abrasive start off large, getting smaller the more you work with them. In effect lowering the cutting power over time. It also contains the highest grade of fillers and kaolin clays to help refine, restore and cleanse the vehicles paintwork.
Car-Chem Medium Cut Compound is designed as a refining stage of polishing. It will help to even out the deeper cuts of our Heavy Cut Compound in preparation for our Light Cut Compound.

Top Tip:
Ensure you are working out of direct sunlight whenever you are using a polishing compound, and check that your vehicle is cool to the touch prior to application. For best results use our Prep Panel Wipe between each stage of cutting to remove any unwanted contaminants.

I tried Lockdown on my car for the first time this weekend and was very impressed with the results. Another great product from Car-Chem!
However, I would take issue with Car-Chem’s claims that Lockdown gives up to 12 months protection. I would not expect a product of this type to last that long and would be happy with good protection between maintenance washes. Car-Chem should update their product description for Lockdown and give a more realistic time for the duration of the protection.
I have heard mixed feelings about this product on the Car-Chem discussion groups but personally, I like it. The issue raised seems to be around its difficulty of application. I have applied it to my already polished and ceramic sealed glass and also to my neighbour’s grotty BMW as a test subject and have had no problems. My suggestion is to polish and then clean the glass to get the best possible foundation before applying it out of the sun. You want to have time to buff before it evaporates. Like most other Car-Chem products it seems to be water-based as it doesn’t give off the solvent fumes like its competitors. I’m not sure what Car-Chem suggests but I like to apply perhaps once every couple of months. As expected, once applied, the rain instantly beads and zips off.
I would like to see a smaller bottle offered. Because it needs applying so infrequently I think a 250ml spray bottle would be perfect and allow people to add it to their basket without such a hike in total basket cost. Just a thought.
