    Can I go from Menzerna SF3500 to Powerlock?

    I just bought some SF3500 and Powerlock. I was originally going to go with SF3800 and Powerlock, but someone recommended I go with SF3500 to get the extra bit of cutting action. Now I am wondering if I should have just stuck with SF3800. Do any of you ever go from SF3500 to Powerlock?

    Yep... you received a good recommendation and should be fine.

    Yes, that is a great finishing combo.

    I do either/or and you'll be fine either way. Just for giggles and snickers, do test spots with both and see if you can tell a difference between the 2 products in what you're working with. That's the best way to insure yourself which one looks better before you lay down some Powerlock.

    I only bought SF3500...not SF3800...and I don't want to spend another $12 for separate shipping again....so SF3500 will have to do.

    I was under the impression that
    you wanted your vehicle to sparkle
    like a diamond? How are you going
    to perform the "jeweling step"
    without Menzerna SF3800?


    C'mon, what's another measly $12.00
    in the grand scheme of things?

    I'm sure you'll like the finish. If its any consolation, there are times when i can't tell a difference in my test spots.

    I assume this is sarcasm lol

    I love AG, but the shipping is not great...expensive and slow.

    3500 will be fine. Use 3800 to get that last bit of shine. If you don't have it, get it next time.

    So I am under the impression that SF3500 does not provide a good finish? No way I am doing a three step process as a hobbyist.
