there are many good products out there, but if i ever have any doubts, you can`t go wrong with meguiar`s.
Meguiar`s Ultra Cut Compound M105
Meguiar`s M205 Ultra Fine Polish

It hasn`t been met very well by most. I personally have no experience but I am a fan of Menzerna FG400/SF4000 and Wolfgang Finishing Glaze 3.0 which is made by Menzerna.

I use V36 a lot and actually really like it. I love the gloss and over all look that it produces. V34 is useless though because its marketed as a compound but cuts like a medium polish, so save your money on that one. Its really hard to go wrong on polish though because most of them out these days will do a good job. It comes down more to finding the right compound/polish for the application.

For me, I like M105 followed by Menzerna 4500. Has worked for every vehicle I`ve done.

If you have M101 I think the only thing you`d need to address is somewhere between that and a polish, maybe look at something like Menzerna PF2500 or PO83RD, and for finishing polishes, M205 is great but there are plenty of other options that I won`t even begin to expand on. I`m just suggesting that you have something with a bit less cut than M101, because when M205 doesn`t cut it, you`ll want something to try before going straight to M101.
