LP-97 Advanced Liquid Rubbing Compound FAQs

What is the best way to remove deep scratches from car paint?

For deep scratches, a professional-grade rubbing compound like Lunaris Advanced Liquid Rubbing Compound (LP-97) is highly effective. It removes oxidation, sanding marks, and moderate to deep scratches while restoring a smooth finish. For best results, use it with a foam or wool buffing pad and a rotary polisher.

Can this rubbing compound be used on wood surfaces?

Yes! Lunaris LP-97 is formulated not just for automotive detailing but also for wood finishing and refinishing. It helps remove surface imperfections, oxidation, and dullness from polyurethane-coated wood and lacquered surfaces, making it a great choice for restoring furniture and wooden floors.

How does oxidation affect car paint, and how can I fix it?

Oxidation causes car paint to look dull, faded, or chalky over time due to exposure to UV rays and environmental pollutants. To fix oxidation, use Lunaris LP-97 rubbing compound, which effectively cuts through oxidation layers, restoring the original shine. Follow up with a wax or sealant for lasting protection.

Is Lunaris LP-97 safe for clear coats and repainted surfaces?

Yes! Lunaris LP-97 is silicone-free and filler-free, making it safe for clear coats, repainted surfaces, and body shop applications. It doesn’t mask imperfections with temporary fillers but genuinely restores the surface.

Can I apply the compound by hand, or do I need a machine?

While applying by hand is possible using a microfiber cloth or foam applicator, for the best results, especially on scratches and oxidation, use a rotary or dual-action polisher with a foam or wool pad.
