If I was to buy just one polish from Menz..it would be the 106FF....its a very versatile polish with pad combos....it can do from mild swirls to some pretty decent correction....with a rotary with green wool or green pad I have taken out some nasty defects....it is LSP ready 99% of the time after buffing...great product..I have polished paint...chrome...and headlight lenses with it and never let down...

It's funny you mention that Surfer. People always used to look down their nose at Poorboys because it dusted too much. But HEY right now Menzerna is all the rage and it dusts so much, people will think you're doing lines off the car you're detailing.

Just funny how powerful the bandwagon is.

Then it was weird as some said they never got dusting from SSR's? I pretty much only used Optimum for no dust, as last time I tried a polish and it dusted the particles were on the garage floor making it slippery as hell. I hope Menz doesn't dust bad

Menzerna will dust if you use edge pads but not much with LC
A hint of glycerin in with the polish will stop that and extend the work time a little too

The difference I have noticed between 85RD Finishing and 106FF is this

106 has much more cut and provides really good wetness and reflection clarity
85RD doesn't cut much, less working time but fractionally higher wetness.

A friend in WA called Auto FX says that 85RE5 is the best menzerna of all

I have all three and from my experience you can't tell the finish that each of them leaves apart. They're basically the same polish with different levels of cut that all finish at a "5" on Menzerna's chart.

85RD, RE5 and 106ff all finish the same. RE5 has a cut level between 85RD and 106ff.
