Very difficult to get out of the bottle ...after much shaking and squeezing at the same time I got some on my cutting pad . As soon as I turned the polisher over to begin polishing the product fell off the polishing pad!!Not one drop of compound had gotten into the pads fibers. To use it I had to remember to put it on the pad and before turning it over I had to rub it into the pad.After using it for a few minutes It became obvious that it was not going to remove the 2000 grit sanding marks I had made on an older green Miata. May use in a pinch but will not be my go to compound.Too many products better and cheaper on the market that do the same thing!
