That pretty much says it all.
Well, at least most....
As much as I love
Meg's 105/205 combo, when it comes to putting the absolute finest gloss you can get on a car, it is as Rydawg says... can't beat
Menzerna.
Some of their products can be a PITA to use sometimes, but the results justify the work.
I thought I was getting cars pretty shiny til I looked at some of the 'dawg's work, and he gave me some polishing pointers (I was already using Menz polishes). I was stunned at how much better the gloss got. Rydawg is capable of getting finishes so glossy with Menz polishes that even the best of glazes would add nothing to the gloss.
If you are serious about getting the absolute best gloss you can, invest in some FPII and PO85RD. Then practice, practice, practice. Also read up on the techniques (WHICH ARE ALREADY POSTED HERE... please don't PM me.. I'm swamped right now with PM's
) for using them properly. You won't be disappointed.
Edit: I do feel as Patrick does re: the way certain, um, "things" were handled by Menz, but unfortunately I find myself in the position of lining the pockets of the enemy; I just haven't been able to find replacements for Menz's finishing polishes...medium polishes and compounds, yes, but not finishing polishes. Although UF does come close, and it's easy to use.
As for the concealing... a QD of Hi-Temp Prep Wash followed by QD IPA removes *all* traces of Menz residues/oils/concealers/whatever you want to call it.
