PowerFinish PO203S, Final Finish PO85U, MicroPolish PO87MC, SuperFinish PO106FA, Final Polish PO85RD.



With so many finishing polishes, how does one choose whats right? Their website doesn't do a really good job at comparing them to each other.



Does anyone know the differences? Has anyone actually used all of these and compared them?
 
I don't really think that PowerFinish would be considered a finishing polish. I don't know if the search is working yet, but these polishes have been discussed to death. I'm pretty sure you've already looked at this page: http://www.autogeek.net/menzerna-of-germany.html but you can look at the cut/gloss numbers. The PO106FA and PO85RD were developed for the Ceramiclear (nano) paints...although AG doesn't say that about PO85RD, that's my recollection.
 
85rd has a strong following, and 87MC seems to be phasing out. While I like 87MC, I'm going to try 85rd when I run out
 
Setec Astronomy: Thanks. I had not looked at that link but it is VERY helpful. I finally know the difference b/t all of them.



Bottom Feeder: Dont know if you have looked at the link Setec posted, but if you havent, you may find PO85U is closer to the 87MC that you like.



Legacy99: Judging by the info on Setecs link, powerfinish may be too aggressive for what I need. But if the IP does not do the trick, I will surely follow your advise and try the powerfinish.



Thank you all for clearing things up for me!
 
I personally usually finish with 106fa Super Finish, or 85rd Final Polish. They both technically finish the same, but Super Finish has a little better cut from the start. The diminishing abrasive however breaks down to the same size after a while. Hence why Super Finish is a few bucks more than the Final Polish. This information I got straight from Menzerna USA.

Super finish is using the finest abrasives, and they are a lot more expensive then many others.

87MC is and 85U is not so popular in Europe and I believe that the dealers are selling RE5 and RD instead.

I finish only with Super finish nowadays.



We did get a visit from Menzerna a week ago, and he used PO203 Power finish on 80% of he's works. For heavy compounding

he used S500 fast gloss and PO106 Super finish for finishing.



I posted some pictures from the days with Axel here:

I'd stay with 2 polishes ... PO203 and finish up with PO85RD ..... That combo should handle most any situation you have. It will produce stunning results!
