    The topic is not about the durability because everyone knows the durability is not even comparable to sealants

    Couldn't tell you what exactly is inside it. It's a 3n1 product that performs as advertised.

    Re: menzerna fg400 then one-step polish

    I have in a few rare cases done this. In cases where a dedicated compound/polish/sealant,time allotment was not possible. On some paints 2500 is all you need to finish properly, 4000,4500 are not always needed. 3 in 1 cuts/finishes like 2500. On some paints that typically react a certain way, I have been baffled that my typical "go to" combos aren't getting me the results I am typically used to, it doesn't happen often, but it does happen. So to answer your question, is it a good idea, to use FG400 followed by 3 in 1? In some cases, yes, it will net some fantastic results on some finishes. Which ones? Who knows until you try it.

    Heck yeah it's okay. As long as when you wipe the 3in1 off it looks good to you go for it.

    FG 400 finished down like a polish when worked correctly so all you need the 3in1 to do is clean up any haze left by the compound and the pad.


    I just cut an old 2-door Ford with a real aggressive compound and then finished it with a real light cleaner/wax and the car is sitting pretty out in the garage this morning waiting for me to get out their and finish the interior and top.

    Great Mike! Thanks for your comment. So my reasonament wasn't wrong...
    There is always the possibility to leave a small amount of swirls and scratches even with great products like the fg400. With the 3in1 we sacrifice a little the really small swirls but we're 100% sure we correct all the mistakes made before...
