    Re: Menzerna 400/4500

    So is it safe to say I should be able to reach 100% with 4000 and a white hybrid? I passed on ordering the 4500 just yet, but I did get a couple yellows that I`ll give a go with the 4000 to see if I can get rid of those last faint marks

    I am not sure what you mean by reach 100%

    It depends on what you are trying to achieve.... if you mean the removal of DEEP defects like swirls and scratches , then SF4000 may not have enough cut to remove enough paint to remove them....you may need to increase the cut.... if however you mean will SF4000 be able to remove the SHALLOW hazing or micromarring left behind after your initial polish (to remove swirls) then IME, yes.... it has removed the hazing left behind from FG400 and a blue wool hybrid pad for me on harder VAG paint.

    Also, if you are using SF4000 for your final polish, you will want to do so with the LEAST aggressive pad you have so that the pad itself is not causing any micromarring.

    For example you may find that on white car with hard clear, SF4000 and a white pad finishes down acceptable for you.
    But use that combo on say a black car with soft paint, and now the hazing is noticeable and would require a softer pad (e.g. black) to ensure a perfect finish.
