A.P.D.

after seeing Menzerna alot on this fourm I am interested in trying it. Which products do you reccomend?:work:
 
PO85RD, P203S, which are final finish and super finish respectively.



For compounding I usually use M105, but if you do a lot of details Powergloss comes in handy sometimes.

What do you normally top that with as a LSP?

Menzerna products much like many other polishes will remove swirls . . . . but for good that is all up to you or if you are doing other peoples vehicles up to them and their washing techniques.



Swirls/Marring is usually introduced to the paint by improper washing techniques.



I currently use:



Menzerna SIP (Medium High Cut)

Menzerna 106F (Medium to Low Cut)

Menzerna P085RD (Finishing/Jeweling)



You may also finish down with 106F if you switch up the pads on your DA or Rotary.

BTW nice avatar. That car is pretty sick.
 
Im going to buy M105 and M205 and noticed that a lot of people love the P085RD, should I buy it instead of M205? Its not that much more expensive, and it seems to finish beautifully

IMO not that i have tried it but from what i have seen and understood . . . . M205 will give you a little bit of correction as it is a finer polish instead of a abrasive one.



P085rd on the other hand is strictly a finishing/jeweling polish that is only to finish up and provides really no cut. So i think they are a little different.
 
I like the 105/205 combo a lot. But after 105 I would rather use SIP or IP because you use so little. A bottle of SIP lasts me a long long time. 205 is one heck of a polish but it is expensive and you have to use a lot more of it.



I Think SIP is very versatile and using it with different pads lets you finish down very well. I don't know what I would do without 105 and SIP.



I do have to admit that after looking at my bottle of OPtimum polish sit on my shelf for six months I finally put it to use and give it another try. I was impressed with it on certain colors. Don't think I could ever use on a soft black but it worked great on a blue Accord

I agree with you when comes to SIP . . . . . that bottle lasts for ever LoL. I'm just nearing the end of my bottle that i purchased about 1 yr ago and i have done a ton of vehicles with that one bottle. It goes a very long way.

Although SIP can finish down very well with the right pad, your missing out on a lot of gloss by not using 106FA or 85rd to finish.

agreed. I guess there are final polishes for a reason . . . . . and it generally doesn't take a very long time to hit a vehicle with say 85rd as you arn't correcting just giving the paint some Luster

Using 85rd can take as long as a compounding step if you really work it in slowly to maximize the gloss. Say a 3 series coupe, it takes me about 2-3 hours with 85rd.
