I have some samples of Power gloss, FP II, and IP. I have a pc and use LC pads. I have a black, orange and 2 white ones. I have used ssr2.5 in the past with a orange pad and was not impressed with the results. This will be going on a 03 vw passat. There are light swirls and a couple scratches.



Do i have to worry about marring with the Menzenda line? What should I work it in speed wise with the pc.

I am sorry I can`t help you with the pads, but I am interested in hearing your thoughts on the SSR2.5. I also would like to hear the results of the Menzerna. I am trying to decide on a Swirl remover for one of my Black cars so please keep me posted. Good Luck!



Edit: Maybe these links might help you.

I just used IP with an orange pad on my black car. It worked great. If the swirls are minor I woud try FP. If that doesn`t do it then I would go to IP with a white pad. I first tried the white pad but wasn`t too happy with the results. the orange pad did it for me. It did leave some hazing which I was concerned about. But the FP took them right out and left a nice gloss.

thanks guys, I think I need to try the IP on the orange pad. I might tape off my hood and do one side orange pad and one white. But come to think about it the orange pad is not that abrasive. The yellow ( which I dont have ) is. WHen I used SSR 2.5 I used the orange pad. I got pretty good results, but I heard that this Menzenda was great. Plus 1/3 of all car makers over seas use it in there factory like BMW/Mercedes etc.

I wondered how long it was going to take for someone to point it out. But you all know what I was saying.
