Now I've used all 3 before and know how each one works, but things don't add up. Here's the 3 for reference:
Menzerna Super Intensive Polish, Menzerna PO 83 , Mernzerna PO85RD 3.02
Meguiars Mirror Glaze #105 Ultra-Cut Compound 32 oz. New D.A. Version
3M Perfect-It 3000 Extra Cut Rubbing Compound, 3m perfect it extra cut compound, 3m rubbing compound 06060
For example, 105 is suppose to be good for 1200 grit sanding marks and up and so is 3M 06060. However, the 3M stuff is far more gritty and can cut much faster with less product. Probably why it costs so much. I use that stuff on a wool pad and a rotary after wet sanding and it works wonders fast. I would not use the 06060 for normal compounding like most use 105 for as it is too aggressive. What's up with that?
Now SIP is good for 2000 grit and higher sanding marks, but I've used it on a rotary side by side with 105 and the SIP did a BETTER job at cutting and finished down better. What gives? On a DA, it would probably be the same result, but I would guess you would have to work SIP longer as it's suppose to be finer. I did not have time to try that to test my theory.
