Or, about the differences and similarities! I have a handle on it a bit, I think it just needs some sorting out.
Here`s what I think I know, please correct the mistakes.
Menzerna FP: all abrasives, no fillers.
3M IHG: All fillers, no abrasives.
Meg`s #7: some abrasives, some fillers.
Eagle 1 Ultra Glaze (all I know is what Scotty said: "It`s green." I`ve had it a while. From the bottle: "The ultimate wet look... hides hairline scratches and cobwebbing... must be used on a non-oxidized surface"): I`d guess same as either IHG or #7, but which? I don`t think this is available as the same name any more.
Pinnacle PCL: Mostly fillers, some abrasive? I`m confused, the label says non-abrasive and citrus based but the product description says it contains natural earths, kelp, rinds, etc, which sound like abrasives to me.
P21S PCL and GEPC: are these the same? Are they the same as PPCL, or more like IHG? If they aren`t the same, how are they different, and how do they relate to the other products?
Safe Cut, by "The Wax Shop": I think I have a handle on this one, it`s like Meg`s #9 I think. It says on the bottle, "Swirl and haze remover. Designed for overspray, water spots, oxidation, and fine scratches." It shouldn`t be in this group of products, it`s maybe a step more aggressive. Their next product they call "Super Glaze Wax", though, and say that it is "non-abrasive", but if it`s a wax it doesn`t fit here either.
So, I`d guess that You can use IHG over top of PPCL/GEPC/PCL, over top of #7, over top of FP (not that you`d want to any of that, but you could), but not the other way around?
Sheesh. And all I wanted when I first showed up here was a shiny car. Look what`s happened to me!
