Question Is this stuff ok? (3M Rubbing Compound)

Got a bottle of this stuff to use with my 10" orbital buffer to remove some swirls and scratches. Planning on going over the whole car.

Is this stuff ok to use for the whole car? Is there anything I should be careful with (using it to long in one spot or anything).

Basicly I dont want to make it worse.

If it's the same bottle I have then yes i think the stuff is great, i usually follow it up with Meguiars Swirl Remover. As for using it on the whole car, i did a couple days ago before waxing, turned out great so i dont see why not. good luck though
