? DP - Cut, Swirl, Finish, and Amigo?
Question from a new user of these products. All of these are a polish/cleaner to some degree, strong to mild. So like in OG's DVD, they all comes off while still wet, in theory, is that correct? Not like a wax that you wait to remove it untill it dries, like Epic.

Yes. You don't let any of these polishes dry. Even while polishing, you don't want to buff so long they become dry. You want the polish to stay wet so it will continue acting as a lubricant between the pad and the paint.
Amigo is a slightly special case because it's part glaze and part polish, but still in general when using these 4 products as polishes, you don't let them dry--there is no benefit and it just makes removal much more difficult.
