Mr. Phillips:
As always, it is a pleasure. In fact, you first helped me out long, long ago "using the least aggressive product," "wash, clay, clean, polish, protect," and "two bucket method" etc. I have learned a TON from you over the years. In fact, the first time you helped was before you worked for Autogeek... back when I used to rock #83 and #80 on an oversized 7" soft buff 2.0 pad on the G110v2.
Since then, I upgraded to #105 and #205, but those are running low, so I am trying new products and am interested in Menzurna at the moment. I am currently still using the G110v2, which as you know is an entry-level 8mm throw free-spin DACP PC clone. I am using it predominantly with the flat LC pads namely the 5.5" white ones though I bought about 18 of them in all different colors. :xyxthumbs:
Okay, so I bought Menzurna SF 4500 a couple years ago as my first Non-Meguiars polish because it's a top-tier product, and nothing more forgiving than their least aggressive finishing-polish.
Forgot all about it then decided to try it this weekend, and I really like it! The to
Now, I want to complete the series and want to ask which two to buy?
Here is the chart (Source Menzerna, Menzerna Polishing Compounds Products, Menzerna FMJ, menzerna polishes, menzerna car polish, menzerna nano polish, menzerna final polish,):
For all intents and purposes my SF4500 == SF3800 now. They both are a 10 glos, 2 cut, the same color, and remove up to 3000 grit size.
My desire:
One product from their Pre-Polish category (the big gun), and one product from their Polishing category = I want to buy two products having already satisfied the "Finishing" category of the chart.
For example, it probably wouldn't make sense to get MC 2500 "polishing" because it removes grit size 2500; since, the one in the next category "pre-polish" would have to jump at least 1000 in grit size if I got PG 1000, which removes 1500.
That said, the cut is only 2 with my current SF4500. it doesn't makes sense to go to MC2400, which is a cut of 7 because 2 to 7 is a HUGE jump in cut especially when the pre-polish category above has PG1000 with a cut of 8. What are you thoughts on PO 91E? For some reason not a lot of folks are buying it, and the others in the same category got better reviews...
If my pre-polish will have a cut power of 8 or 10, and my final is a 2 for my finishing, then realistically I want a 5. It would seem to me that PO 91E is a good middle at a cut of 5 and a grit size removal of 2000 vs 3000 and 1200. it's more or less in the middle of that as well.
What do you recommend?
Next for the pre-polish, I know I don't want PG 1000 because it is just too close to MC2400. Would you recommend the FG 400 or the SHC 300? I think the FG 400 has been around forever and therefore may be the better choice, but a cut of 8 doesn't seem like very much.
For example, I use Meguiar's #105 all the time, and it has a cut of 12 though it may not be on the same scale.
Would you recommend FG 400 or SHC 300?
Thank you sir!
