I use 303 protectorant and cloth finishes and pbl leather and vinyl protectorant and all other surfaces.

I can also recommend the pbl interior coating as well

I would bypass the DA and go straight tot the flex if money is not an option. You will move to the flex as it is inevitable.

Thanks for reply romach
How you like the 303AP?
Any luck on leather seat?
As for the Protector or coating,
I can only access to
Ultima interior guard and 303 AP or optimum protectant. I try to avoid shipping from overseas(expensive customs tax and shipping cost)

Eandras appreciate the tips :)
I heard a lot good things about flex3401
So is hybrid pad + menzerna polish combo better option?
I also plan to apply LSP with it

I have a 3401 and for me the MF pads work best. I also have several LC flat foam pads and some hexlogic pads that work in a pinch.

I've never used Menz but I've heard great things about it. I did a full correction yesterday with an MF cutting pad and CG V34 - worked great. M101/M105 dust too much for my taste and can be challenging to wipe off..... but they work fairly well also for correcting.

i heard M101 create low dust compare to M105 and finish better to near lsp ready.(ihaveacamero's review)

CQuartz Fabric and Leather Coating.

Only issue it needs drying time or to be heat dried. Works great though.

I have 5.5 inch backing plate and 6 inch pads. I have both MF cutting and polishing pads. 1 set from CG and the other set from AG. (LC maybe? I'm not sure of the brand) And a boatload of Foam pads, mostly Hexlogic.

101 definitely dusts less than 105 - but they both can be finnicky to remove. They cut faster than V32/V34 from CG but the CG stuff dusts WAY less and removes much much easier. I've done dozens of details with both lines with great success - but I'm always game to try something "New and Improved":xyxthumbs:

I'm going to get some Menz FG400 and HD Cut because I heard they cut like M101 but don't dust as much and are easier to remove.

FG400 is glorious, zero dusting, cuts similar to M105 but finishes much better. On most cars it can easily be a perfect one-step and LSP ready.

I haven't used HD Cut only Adapt and Polish.

since menzerna is well recommend by all i might take a shot :xyxthumbs:

if use FG400 follow by SF4000 then powerlock + collinite915
PF2500 for maintain etc

Once you do the two step with FG400 and SF4000 you should be able to maintain it for the most part with just SF4000.
