Cheap Rubbing Compound? Options

[Scosh]

Anyone know of any cheap rubbing compound that will do a good job? I am on the last step with my car and I need to buff it. Unfortunately I hit my budget and now I am low on money to work on my car. Any help? It will look weird driving around in a color sanded car.

Hey I am a ICAR platinum, ASE Master, PPG platinum certified Painter. What I USE PROFESSIONALLY is 3M Perfect It II rubbing compound. Thats after Ive wet sanded . The compound is one of the best out there. its also pretty cheap I get it for 14.82 a quart. Just look in the phone book for a autobody supply store. You will not get the same result from any of these other products that have been posted. Trust me Ive tried them all. It might satisfy them just enough, But I as a painter would always spot out a half assed didnt know what someone was doing and didnt use the right stuff buff. AND I LOOK AND LAUGH EVERY TIME.Also remember when buffing always use a high speed buffer like a makita 927c. A orbital buffer will not do the trick. and before buffing finish off the sanding with 2000 or 3m trizact 3000 grit disc
