Need a little help with some of menzerna products I have been reading good things about their products and would like to order some. Comparing them to chemical guys stuff since that's what I have right now would this be correct?

Chemical guys V32- FG400
Chemical guys V36- PF2500
Chemical guys V38- SF4500

Yes it would.

However CG compared to menzerna is like Honda to rolls Royce.

They will both get you there but the rolls is much more comfortable and a smoother ride

(I do not like v32 v34, however v36 is a awesome one step polish for cheap production one step jobs)

That would be about right.

If you are looking for a finishing polish, I would step down to SF4000. Reason is that it has a bit more cut than SF4500 and can finish up anything left behind from the first compounding step.

In my testing, I can compound with the PE14, Hybrid wool pad, and Menzerna SC300. Then come back with round two with the 3401, white Hybrid, and SF4000. The added cut of SF4000 here has no problem finishing up the first step.

For me, SF4500 is reserved when the maximum amount of gloss is desired. Usually in a three step process.

I have tried the FG & PG 400. It doesn't really cut it (hahah) compared to the 3M. Definitely need to try the 300.

300 has insane cut, haven't compared it with Meg's or 3M but I will tell you this.. No way you're going to finish in 1 step after SHC300 with a wool pad. I'd compare it to 1500 or 2k grit sandpaper. Generates tons of friction so be sure to manhandle your machine. I love it though!

Does SC300 cut more than M101? Also how do you use Menzerna polishes, is zenith type technique reiguired? Going to use with Rupes and MF. Also have Rotary and woolpads.
