I've been thinking about trying out Power Finish, but I also have M105 and Ultimate Compound. Do I really need Power Finish if I have the other two or is Power Finish different enough to make it worth getting?

You can't compare power finish to a compound. It's cut is in between SIP and IP. It finishes down very well.

Would it replace IP then? Going by AG's Menzerna chart, it has the same cut as IP but finishes better.

It has a little more cut than IP. I don't use IP anymore, I use that.

Do you still finish with another polish after Power Finish?

On my own? Yes. It depends on the pad I use. It finished down damn good with the soft LC green pad. If I had someone who wanted a one step. If 106FA didn't do anything, that is what I would use.

Sounds good. Thanks.

I have been using Menzerna products for quite sometime, here is how I use the products, SIP, Power Finish and PO85rd, Power Finish is awesome, but for correction and heavy swirl and scratches SIP is certainly needed. The PO85rd really enhances and gives the paint a big boost.
