    Polish Drying Too Fast...

    Hi D&D I had the same problem on my car saturday night and have had it happen on customers cars now and then. It was cold inside the workshop. I did the lower part of the left front door and it kept hologramming from dry buffing due to something in the paint. A stronger clay bar and prepsol...

    Getting the gloss.

    We all know that the current range of polishes use aluminium oxide, glycerin, bentonite, volcanic ash etc to remove swirls and scratches from our beloved paint but what ingredient in a final polish makes it bring back the true gloss and are there any polishes or glazes available that don't...

    Menzerna Chart

    sounds great. it's not david at optimum polymer technologies? Is the euro pad a malco branded one, I haven't heard of Euro before I am waiting for the sydney based dealer to finish all the red tape with creating the business, getting approval for importation etc etc Once that's done, I'll be...

    Menzerna Chart

    Any type clear whatsoever. Pete, I agree about meg's, turtle wax etc and there's no doubt that system one is a great idea and obviously works well. If we were to meet, I'd go with G Techniq. The newest technology in polishing which only removes the tiniest amount of clear and cuts from 1000 to...

    Menzerna Chart

    I must disagree with you there. Unless it's G Techniq, there is nothing that compares to Menzerna Have been using Menzerna since 04 and tried over fifty brands of polishes as well (still use others as well) and the end result with them is unmatched. 106FF and RE5 stand alone. My shop must...

    Water Spots - Any way to prevent them?

    A top quality sealant will prevent those. Topping it with wax also helps alot I won't mention the brand of sealant I've used that stops them as you won't like it. One of those that starts with G andanother that starts with F. Same company makes them and are not polymer based.

    Is there a matrix showing Polish advantages/disadvantages?

    Menz 106 is virtually dustless and breaks down slowly and has good burnishing power (don't like the word cut anymore) 91L can be very high dusting but DG PBA 601 stops that XMT #2 breaks down fairly slowly and has no dust

    Menzerna Polish Why So Many??????

    Well I won't be buying PO87MF or PO85U anymore 106FF has good cutting, can finish with a polish pad if you want or take it further RE5 gives same finish but less cut and PO91E burnishes more than SIP though can be dusty. There's a definate difference between Blackfire FF and Menzerna FF. I'm...

    Boy this is one thread with alot of anger Menzerna and I met in 2004 and I've never looked back Obviously my experience is with a rotary and I apply it to the paint, not the pad Don't start with a six inch line as that's way too much. One to two blobs of it on the paint is enough for a front...

    New Technique- Pad cleaning

    Recently I got a 7.5 kg Hoover Boss top loader and instead of using the DP cleaner or laundry liquid, I use wax free car shampoo and boy does it clean the pads back to like new Plus the velcro backing stays put. I always double rinse them afterwards to make sure their is no residue still inside

    International shipping

    As long as the gear gets to me within two weeks I am happy. I have never paid a cent for customs since buying internationally in 2000 (videos, laserdiscs and dvd's) and not once has anyone else beat USPS pricing Why pay more for it to arrive in two to four days than to just wait three or four...
