Has anyone ever mixed polishes ?

[mpmiller37]

I was wondering if anyone has ever mixed polishes. For example suppose I liked the results of IP and the working time of #80, could the 2 be mixed during aplication or does this lead to problems ?

I`ve mixed Optimum Polish and Optimum compound and used it to great success. I can see this working because both the polish and the compound are made by the same company... I don`t know if mixing brand would work.

Yow! I have heard of people mixing the various Optimum polishes to get an "in-between", but even polishes in the same series from the same manufacturer can have different working principles (Meg`s 80-series). I think it would be a long shot that different brands could be mixed with good results...unless of course you`re in that other thread where all the products come from the same plant...

You may come up with a miracle product and you may come up with a rotten egg. I would like to think that the different abrasives will break down differently with different the different lubrication that the products are likely to have. Make sense?



(OT) I don`t think anyone indicated in the other thread that *all* the products come from the same plant but there`s clearly a number of rebottled goods out there. (Back to topic)
