yes i know that thanks, what im saying is, there probably was no need for a cutting compound to be used, and a decent wash and wax wouldve sufficed

Why not? Whenever i get a new car or a friend or family member gets one i always cut the paint back...And i always see a differance.

if the car is regularly done with polish and wax then i wouldnt use a cutting product but the first time i would to get rid of swirl marks etc etc.
