I used uc on the wife's car today and while it came up really well in the time frame (80-90% of swirls removed) the compound kept "caking" in parts leaving me to wipe hard by hand. I tried different speeds and also lubeing up the pad with quick detailer. Any ideas why this happened?

Re: odd result while using uc and rotary buffer
Sounds like symptoms that are as a result of too much product being used, try a bit less product next time and be sure to clean your pads often.
Also, it should be noted that UC is intended for use by hand or DA, not rotary so you could potentially be handicapping yourself here with erratic product behavior. You may also want to consider a Meguiar's compound/polish intended for rotary use such as M105 (Ultra Cut Compound), M205 (Ultra Finishing Polish), M86 (So1o), or the European-only M101 (Foam Cut Compound) for best results with the machine you are using.
