Hey fellow detailers :props:

I'm not quite satisfied with the cut of PO106FF, but I like the way it finishes. For a 1-step polish on a dark colored car, would adding some SIP to PO106FF slightly increase the cut while still giving a nice deep finish?

Or if I should stick to one single Menzerna product?

Thanks

SIP finishes down quite easily on its own. You might move to it and then come back to 106FF afterwards.

If I need a 1-step, then I should stick to SIP? I was expecting the mix of SIP to give maybe 30% more cut to PO106FF without affecting its jeweling property.

Here's the info that I got somewhere else: if you mix the product 70/30 SIP/106fa you will have liquid that will perform on par (equal to) PO203s Power Finish.

True assumption?

203 is indeed the best choice if you need a 1 step from Menzerna. I dont mix products, so I cannot say for sure but I believe the abrasives are different in SIP/106FF/FA (ceramiclear).

SIP does cut more, and finishes down quite well, but for best use you would want to finish up with a lighter polish and pad afterwards. I personally would not finish with SIP ...
