Excellent information and I really like the new format Menzerna chose for their products.

Prior to the latest generation packaging I felt their labeling and presentation left a lot to be desired. Once you got used to the products and understood the capability of each you were OK.

The new numbering system takes all the guesswork and confusion out and applies simple logic...

Thanks. Looks like the new names make some sense, almost like the grit rating each could remove.

But this is one reason I also don`t like menzerna polishes. They are always changing their stuff and offer other formulations accross the pond.

I agree, Troy. I used to use Menzerna polishes almost exclusively but I`ve found myself more open to other options due to the confusing switch-a-roos that they pull.

(I still like `em, though.)

Thanks for posting this. I don`t see PO83 (Super Intensive Polish) on the list.

I think they make about 3 different lines, 1 for the US and 2 for over the pond. Confusing for sure.

Me neither but its new code is SI 1500, so they didnt stop making it.

I missed this but I see Fast Gloss, thats new, maybe a contender with the M101 you folks have been having success with. I cant find any US vendors for it though.

It is not listed on their US website, so my assumption is that it is not for the US market. Looks like we have the same polishes that have been available to us, just with the new (and I must say much nicer / informative) packaging.

FG 500 is for now only an overseas product. You can get it shipped here from some vendors tho.

Looks like a pretty simple to understand re-label, thanks for posting the info.

I know the numbering system defined logic but has their basic formulations been changing for SIP, PF. 106FA, 85RD?

I am interested to know about this too.
I just purchased PO85RD from ADS this week.
They got the new version of 85RD but they called it SF 4500 not 5000?
So is 4500 a completely new formula, or 85RD has been reformulated to be even finer at 5000 recently?

Here is a pic for reference:

I see that on ADS site there is SF 4000 and SF 4500, email ADS and ask why it has a different label.
