I'm not 100% certain Dood but I would hazard a guess and say it may be to reduce the hologramming from the wool pads prior to polishing. If the paint is on the hard side it may be more effective to compound again with foam rather than trying to remove the holograms with regular polishes.

I'll ask the question in the OT and see what Clark has to say

Thats it dood


I see Clark replied to my question re the compounding steps...

Clark Wrote:Whilst the wool finishes down pretty well in most cases, it still has a habit of leaving deeper circular marks in places that a dedicated finishing polish wouldnt always fully remove so the second compounding stage is needed to fully remove these marks left over. With wool, when the defects have gone you should ideally stop polishing immediately as you could end up removing more paint than the next 2 following stages will - it doesnt always look very pretty when the wool stage is complete but as you can see it polishes out nicely in the end
