Cut Hard. Finish Perfect. Then Prime for the Coating.

Gyeon Q²M Compound+ Redefined paired with Q² Primer — a heavy cutting compound and an SiO₂-infused finishing polish that prepares paint for coating.

Primer is the one people underestimate. It lays SiO₂ into the paint. Most finishing polishes just refine and get wiped off. Primer refines at 5/10 cut and 10/10 gloss, then leaves a base layer of silica bonded to the surface — which is what the coating you apply next bonds into, giving a stronger, longer-lasting attachment than bare clear coat would. It also solves the stage detailers quietly dread: the final wipe-down. Because Primer leaves the surface slick and requires no product removal, the pre-coating wipe stops being a marring risk on soft or dark paint, and if you leave it 24 hours you can coat directly without a prep wipe at all. In front of it, Compound+ Redefined does the heavy lifting — a water-based paste with high-quality Japanese abrasives, almost no dust, a long working cycle that resists drying out, and no silicone or fillers to interfere with coating adhesion.

What's in the Bundle

Gyeon note that Compound+ Redefined leaves light holograms that one pass of Q²M Polish removes. Primer is an ultra-light finish at 5/10 cut, so on harder or darker paint you may want Q²M Polish between the two stages rather than relying on Primer alone. Always test your pad and compound combination on a small area first, assess paint thickness before heavy correction, work in the shade on cool panels, and refer to the manufacturer's label for current guidance.
