In extremely dry climates, you may experience slight dusting of the EPIC compound. To reduce the dusting, simply apply your compound to the pad surface and lightly mist the pad water. Next, do the same for the surface of your panel. Run the orbital buffer at the lowest setting and work it slightly back and forth until you feel the foam pad drop or sink even closer to the panel. Once this has happened, apply two more ¼" drops of the compound and go about your normal buffing process. Showroom Shine would also work as a substitute for water.
