This is the first time I have used OP (1.0) with the Kompressor pads, I noticed that for the first time it started to powder quite badly. What I am missing here?

Version 1, as in the original formula should not be dusting....unless the pad is left to dry out. The newer version doesn't have the same amount of working time so it flashes faster.

Could the pad have had dried product in it from earlier use?

No, it was a brand new pad still sealed up. Wonder if I did get version 2. I got it on a buy one get one free deal at Autogeek. Interesting fact on speed 2 no problems, speed 3 is when it started to powder. This is on a Makita rotary.

How much product did you use?

Maybe a nickel size

Could be that the new pad had some foam shavings from the manufacturing process.

I've never used Kompressor pads, so I don't know how do they feel/work.

Did you shake the polish?
