Imoto Rubbing Compound (200ml Tube) – Paint Restoration & Scratch Removal Paste

Restore oxidized paintwork, eliminate stubborn scratches, and erase heavy swirl marks with Imoto Rubbing Compound (200ml Tube). Formulated for professional detailers and automotive body shops across South Africa, this high-performance cutting compound cuts quickly through weathered clear coats to reveal a smooth, high-gloss foundation ready for polishing.

Professional Paint Correction & Oxidation Removal

Sun exposure, industrial fallout, and road grime cause automotive clear coats to oxidize, turning paint dull, chalky, and faded. Imoto Rubbing Compound utilizes precision-graded micro-abrasives that level uneven clear coat surfaces safely. It cuts away dead paint cells, fine scratches, and stubborn water spots without burning through delicate edges.

Silicone-Free Body Shop Safe Formula

Safe for professional automotive spray booths and paint shops where silicone contamination can interfere with fresh resprays, Imoto Rubbing Compound provides pure mechanical cutting action. It spreads smoothly by hand or with a machine polisher and wipes away cleanly with minimal dusting.

Key Performance Features

  • Fast Micro-Cutting Action: Rapidly removes P1500–P2000 sanding scratches, oxidation, and heavy swirl marks.

  • Silicone-Free Formula: 100% body shop safe for clear coat paint correction and resprays.

  • Popular Industry Part Code: Matches popular part number RC1.

  • Convenient 200ml Tube: Ideal size for spot scratch repairs or multi-vehicle detailing.

Recommended Application Guidelines

  1. Wash and dry the vehicle thoroughly, ensuring the paint surface is cool to the touch and out of direct sunlight.

  2. Apply a coin-sized amount of Imoto Rubbing Compound onto a microfiber applicator pad or cutting foam polishing pad.

  3. Work in a manageable 50cm x 50cm section using overlapping circular motions with moderate pressure.

  4. Wipe away residue immediately with a clean, dry microfiber towel before the compound dries completely.

  5. Follow up with a fine polish or wax (such as Imoto Liquid Car Wax) to restore ultimate gloss and protection.

 

Detailer's Tip: Always follow rubbing compound with a finer finishing polish to remove any microscopic micro-marring before sealing the paint with wax or ceramic coating!
