When to use this?
compare to Advanced Swril Remover & Advanced Finishing Polish, is it the same?
 
No it is not, it is used just to clean the paint up after using the swirl removers or after just washing to clean the paint after a wash so the lsp has a nice base to adhere to.
 
as offered it has no polishing ability. Originally designed to be used before the Pinnacle waxes as they have no cleaners in them. It will offer some light filling in my experience.
 
so if i going to use advanced swirl remover, advanced finishing polish, clay bar, Pinnacle Liquid Souveran™ Wax, when do i use Pinnacle Paintwork Cleansing Lotion?
 
so the step is:
1. Wash
2. Clay
3. Swirl remover
4. Finishing Polish
5. Paintwork Cleansing Lotion
6. Wax

is this true?
 
I would interject that when polishing there really is not a need for the paintwork lotion unless some very light filling is still needed. The lotion was designed for those that dont polish and chemically cleans paint and preps for carnaubas specifically.
 
so i needn't use cleansing lotion if i use from step 3 & 4?
 
its no longer a necessity .... I suggest

Wash --- clay --- polish (or paint cleanser) -- seal/wax

if youve clayed and polished, not sure were the paint cleanser can help.
 
If you do not do an ipa wipe down after polishing I would suggest using the paint cleaner before waxing.

I know there is some debate on other forums that Menzerna masks some marks and iso wipe is probably good advice to check on polishing progress. I have however found no durability or curing issues with any sealant or wax over Menzerna and that includes Zaino.
 
I would use an IPA wipe down instead of step 5 to inspect your work after polishing. Some polishes leave behind some oils which might hide some marring still on your paint. An IPA wipe down will also get the surface preped for your wax.

I hear what you are saying but you should do an ipa wipedown to check your progress, this goes for any polish. This wasn't directed toward Menzerna but to any time you polish and with any brand of polish. This is to remove the oils as Rsurfer said so you can cjeck your progress and so you have a clean step for your next polish step or lsp.
 
Would there be any issues with using paintwork cleansing lotion immediately before a sealant.....like Fourstar UPP?
