Mezerna Polish for Black car ( Porsche)

[AlPap]

I would like to try a Mezerna polish for a year old car in great condition. Would you suggest using Mezerna Nano or PO 85rd. Thanks for any suggestions. Do you also follow up with WG Sealant?Feed back please

85rd and follow up with Wolfgang Sealant would be a great combo for your black paint. If there any swirls or defects you might want to pick up some SIP since 85rd is just a finishing polish.

Menzerna and black go hand in hand ... listen above and grab both SIP and 085rd.

:iagree: Good call Asphalt.....

Thanks guys for the advice. Will give PO85rd and WG sealant a try.

Pardon my ignorance but what is PO85rd. Would like to try on my black 325ci. Already have the WG sealant. Thanks

Its a finishing polish produced by menzerna.... very light cut to add gloss to the paint... not the first thing to reach for if you need real defect removal

Better than wolfgang swirl remover?

The PO85RD is less aggressive than the Wolfgang Total Swirl Remover...

You would typically use the more aggressive product first and then finish out with the PO85RD



Evaluate the condition of the finish
Choose the right product for the job
Use good technique


That's the basic approach for any detail project... do a test spot before going over the entire car to make sure you're removing the defects and getting the results you want.

The Wolfgang Total Swirl Remover and the Wolfgang Finishing Glaze are both made by Menzerna but either system will work.

I love this thread just because Joe had never used a DA Polisher in his life...

Here's another black Porsche buffed with Wolfgang...

How are you applying your polish? As in by hand or machine and if by machine which machine?

I used SIP then Nano on my 2001 Black Turbo when i got it to remove all the swirls and scratches. Now that it has a great finish, i just follow up with Nano on a white pad and then Nano and gray pad once a year to keep the finish flawless. I have noticed that the black Porsche paint is very prone to swirls and scratches though, moreso than my black Acura. I have to be very careful when I wash the Porsche as even running my microfiber mitt and microfiber towels across it can tend to mar the finish.

"Find something you like and use it often" (http://www.autogeekonline.net/forum/ask-expert-featuring-mike-phillips/24310-find-something-you-like-use-often.html)


Often is a relative word in the context of car maintenance; how often you do anything just depends upon how the car is used and stored. These two factors plus your expectations will determine how "often" you have to do anything to it to maintain the finish to your standards.


Sounds like you've dialed in a system that works for you...

Picture?
