Menzerna Polishing Compounds of Germany has set new standards for workability, uniformity, performance, and quality. Why else would Mercedes Benz use Menzerna polishes to perfect the finishes on their brand new vehicles?

Re: new guy needs help with black car

Hey wise, whats up?

- wash via 2BM and quality wash mitt
- dry via cobra WW guzzler towels
- clay
- polish w/ PC via orange pad using: XMT #3, Menz IP, SSR 2.5, or Meg's M83.
(choose your polish according to price your willing to pay)
- polish w/ PC via white pad using: XMT #1, Menz FF, SSR 1, or Meg's M80.
(choose the same polish series you chose for the step above)
- seal w/ WG DGPS
- LSP w/ Pinn Souveran Paste Wax x2

Good Luck

for your car you can substitute Sig Series II (LSP) for the flake pop.

You would be better off with Menzerna polishes.

Re: new guy needs help with black car

106FF is the final polish, I would purchase SIP and 106FF to clean up light scratches. You can use a white pad with 106FF and then follow up with 106FF on a blue or black pad. You always want to finish with a final polish on a finish pad.

Re: new guy needs help with black car

Menzerna 106FF and SIP // Follow with Four Star UPP Paint Sealant // Optimum Gloss Spray as needed/wanted. Weather is pretty nice in Broward daily .. just hate the afternoon showers.
