Great cutting compound
The black compound is excellent for cutting through abrasions. I was polishing some aluminum wheels. The faces required sanding the machine marks down after stripping the powder coat off. I thought I had sanded far enough, but small areas were revealed again when I finally started compounding. The black cut through everything I needed it too with ease, and I was only using 4" sisal wheels & spiral sewn wheels on a die grinder! I can't imagine it's versatility on an 8" wheel. Always start out with black compound before a polishing job, and save yourself hours of unnecessary work. As far as cutting, I think the black would probably be 5x more coarse than the brown tripoli, I burned through half a bar of black compound over the course of a valve cover, timing chain cover, and 4 wheels - and a couple miscellaneous parts. So if you're working on a lot of never-before-polished parts, grab some black emery compound and work it with a sisal wheel. in fact, grab an extra if you're doing a lot of prep work on large jobs. A trick I learned is use Sisal + Black, Spiral Sewn + Black, and then spiral sewn + Brown. Going with a sisal does a lot of fast cutting, but I found that moving directly from a sisal to a spiral sewn with brown, had poor results - so I smoothed things out with a spiral wheel and the black before moving to brown. Prep work prep work prep work!
