Menzerna Finishing Glaze - adds a deeper, wetter gloss to the paint while hiding minor imperfections with micro fine fillers. Contains no wax.




just a couple questions.

1. what pads and machine(DA or ROTARY) was used to get these results?
2. with the NANO(106ff) being pad dependent was the 2500 grit marks the worse that could be removed using an very aggressive pad?
3.and with the NANO(106ff) being made for the scratch-resistant clear coats would i need anything stronger for softer clear coats?


i was thinking of getting 106ff(nano) to remove scratches then make a pass with 87mc(micro polish) to clean up what the 106ff(nano) left. if anything. then run the 115c(glaze) before applying the natty's.
any suggestions on a sealant that will work with the 115c(glaze)?
i was thinking of DG105 or 4star upp. would like to get a nice sealant that will replace to wax. only reason is customers cant be without their cars for an additional 12-24 hours for the sealant to cure before waxing it.
 
Cullen, Micro Polish (87MC= 85RD) has a gloss of 5.

Detailgod, I use 85RD (aka 87MC) and 106FF with a PC and white pad and sometimes go to an orange spot pad for 106 for tougher swirls. Basically, I try 85RD first since it has less cut, then 106FF as necessary. I do also use OC. I have used these polishes on conventional clears (Ford and GM) and hard clears (Corvettes).

As far as sealant cure times, you might look at some of CG's sealants which cure in 30 minutes.

so you think that just getting 106ff,87mc(85rd) and 115c(glaze) will take care of atleast 80% of all paint correction?
 
What would be the benefit of having Menzerna PowerGloss Compound S34A in my arsenal of products?
 
Detailgod, Some finishes may be beyond these products, but in general I would say yes, 80%. In fact 106FF alone is very, very good. The glaze I have not used. Some others might want to comment on how 106FF and 87MC work on conventional clears, but I have had no issues on Ford and GM.

PO106FF breaks down very well, and has a gloss level of 5 (max). You won't need to follow it up with 87mc.

after removing scratches/swirls with 106ff i can go staright to glaze then lsp? glaze for added wetness of course
 
You can go straight to lsp after 106. I have used 106 on about 100 different
vehicles without any problems. You may want to purchase sip just in case.
 
could someone please put the numbers (ie. PO106ff) next to the item for quick reference. Thanks.:cheers:
 
Thanks Truls. So according to the pad chart, the orange Menzerna pad is a finishing pad that produces more gloss than the white?

How PC friendly are these polishes? Do they break down nicely or take a while much like the Optimum line. I love the Optimum line, especially OC, but it just seems to take forever and a day to break down. Feed back please

Much like Optimum, they take a while to break down.....but that's a good thing:D

yepp
 
the Menzerna Glaze is compatible with all sealants, as is the Wolfgang version. (Finishing Glaze) Please remember most products , other than the polishes, are CMA products just using the Menzerna name for licensing.
 
My question is if the 106ff (Nano) is a 2.5 cut and made for ceramiclear, will the IP, 3.0 cut also work on ceramiclear or is it only the 106?
I already have the IP, but haven't tried it on Mercedes or Audi clear. I have both lined up in the near future and was wondering if my IP was going to work or if I should/need to get the Nano/106FF?
Can someone clarify this for me?
 
This should help out.......A LOT!!!!

After the link came up I hit the printer icon (Upper left). It printed a perfectly centered 8.5X11 copy. Now time to study this info.
