Currently, I'm using the entire Menzerna line for polishes (FP2, Intensive Polish, & Power Gloss). I LOVE FP2, IP is good but can be a PITA sometimes, and Power Gloss is AWFUL when used with a PC. So, I'm looking to change brands at least partially (FP2 I'll keep ;) ). Plus I order 90% of my detailing supplies from Autogeek anyway. So, I'd like to go with a brand sold by the 'Geek.

Anyway, I'm about to run out of IP. So, I'll replace that polish first. But, I'm wondering what are some equivalent polishes that Autogeek sells. I believe either Poorboy's SSR2 or SSR2.5 is about the same level of aggressiveness. Also, I believe Optimum Compound is about the same level too. However, which of the new XMT polishes would have the same level of aggressiveness as these other polishes? #2 or #3? Also, I'm open to other suggestions.

You basically named all the lines that I was going to recommend. I am not 100% sure on this, but I am pretty sure IP is about equivalent to XMT #2. XMT #3 is a little more aggressive and along the lines of SSR 3 and PG. Poorboy's is great, but also, SSR 3 is not recommended for use by PC. You probably won't like it much better than your PG with a PC. Optimum is a great line and I am considering getting their Hyper Compound to combat the worst scratches/swirls I see. Of those 3 lines, anything you pick will work well and you won't be disappointed.

I have no clue! SO I won't be able to help...But I do have a sample of Menze FP ( version one I guess) and I love it! But lately been using a glaze with light polish (VM or Crystal Glaze) for this step so I ahven't been using it too much, but I will! I have SRR2, but I just am not into it. I liek my optimum compound just fine, but it will haze on ya. I ahven;t played around too much with polsihes, but plan on it.
See, told ya I wouldn't be able to help, sorry...
