Hi All

As per the below chart:

Where would HD Cut, HD Adapt, HD Polish and HD Speed fall in?

Can't read your chart on my phone, but Cut is about a 9 out of 10 on cutting ability and about a 6 on finishing.

Adapt is about an 8 on cutting ability out of 10, and a 8 on finishing.

Polish is about a 6 out of 10 on cutting ability, and a solid 10 on finishing.

Jeez, I thought the Polish was a finishing polish with a 2 or 3 out of 10 cut. Are u sure about that? Also what about Speed?

[Billy Baldone]

They have an updated chart over there with HD on it. Just have to look for it.

[Billy Baldone]

Cut 9. Adapt 6, polish 3, Speed 2.

Meh, I have polished out literally hundreds of cars with these products. They are pad dependent but cut like a beast with a little patience. A 2 and 3 out of 10 cut on Polish and Speed is a rediculous assessment.

I'm a Menzerna user who decided to give HD Cut and HD Polish a try and I can say is that I am very impressed with these two products. The Menzerna products I use are FG400 for the heavy lifting and SF4000 for the polish. I also have SIP and Colorlock wax. I think I might have found a new favorite in the HD line.

Mark what product do you suggest for a jeweling polish?

HD Speed is great. I love how fast it goes on (even doing 6 section passes) and how easy it comes off. It's sunlight safe too. I've used it on two cars now (one black, with 132K miles) and I'm thrilled with the results. Rating at #2 on Cut seems pretty low. I want to give HD Adapt a try next.

Great chart! Thanks for posting.

Polish! As I said it is pad dependent. Just go to a more polishing oriented pad and it jewels great.
