Menzerna or Pinnacle

I just recieved some menzerna intesnive polish and final polish in the mail. My PC will be coming in the begginning of next week. I have light, intermediate swirls. Will the Menzerna get the job done with my green pad on the PC, or do i need some pinnacle xmt?

I have some Menzerna samples and was realy raving about them. This was until the new Pinnacle Twins came out. They are all I'm using now. I used Advanced Swirl Remover at Detail Fest to remove some pretty deep scratches on a Camry. It gives you cut with a long worktime and can finish down LSP ready.

I used Advance Finishing Polish last night on a 2004 black M3 with an EDGE blue polishing pad. It took out minor swirls and left the paint so clean.

These two should be owned by everyone!!!

Since you have Menzerna's polishes, there's no need to buy another polish, unless their products can't get your swirls out. If after using their polishes, and your problem is still there, then it might be time to move up.

It's been touted that their polishes are some of the best in the world..

You should be fine with what you have.



And, a "triple" agree; buy some Souveran (paste or liquid)!!

Menzerna should be more than enough. I'm happy with my results. I'm assuming your green pad is an edge2000 pad making it a cutting pad, right? In that case use it with IP and you'll need a polishing pad for FPII. I'll continue the trend and agree with everyone else, take the money saved and put it towards buying yourself a good wax.

Yes i do have the green pad, and the white polishing pad. I was just wondering how much better the pinnacle was because i didn't use the menzerna yet and would maybe return it. Are the pinnacle and souveran sold at like autozone or local stores? How does McGuiars fit in with these products, any good? I like the idea that i can just go to autozone instead of waiting for it shipped. i'm pretty impatient

I think the only place to get pinnacle stuff is right here at AG.

If you're not willing to wait, I know how you feel by the way, then try and find some Meguiars #83 (dual action polish) and #80 (professional speed glaze) at the local autoparts store. Some of them have them, some don't. As for wax Meg's #26 hi-tech wax is good.
