They seem to take a touch more effort to wipe off, but the results are truly worth it to me.

Some took pictures of it and best described was it looked like spaghetti was shooting out between the pad and paint LOL. Even worse was it for them who washed in the garage and then polished a while afterwards. Some gas stations has these garages to do both washes and polishing and mechanical work in them for a good price. These who used them at this places always had problems with the fg400. But it was around 2 years ago they changed the formula slightly and got rid of this extreme behavior.
And yeah with these lower loop nap mf towels being of a higher quality. Is working great on with removal of polish and waxes. Also since you don't get the amount of residue to wipe off with the newer polishes since they are a little more concentrated. Helps out to with these mf towels.
Understandable you have your eyes opened for new products to get your work even easier. The right thing to evolve.
Have you tested the Sonax Paint Cleaner with Hybrid NPT protection. It has great filling ability from it so it can be a little hard to see the true results. But this combo with PNS or BSD would be a killer combo I think. The most negative I have heard from it is the bottle can be a finicky to work with. Otherwise easy to work with and also great performance and easy with a polisher and by hand. Don't know why they recommend you to not use it on a new to 1 year old car. It can be it's more aggressive than it says to be.
I'm more opening up a discussion topic, and seeing comments regarding the topic in a dedicated thread.
Of course, there is the added benefit of seeing all these theories and techniques that could make things with existing products easier / faster.

I have honestly never even tried it. The FCC and/or CC finish down so nicely, I can go straight to my LSP.
It is no coincidence that man's best friend cannot talk.

Funny how some of us think so differently. I find Menzerna to be some of the worst to wipe off. Very oily. To each their own.

Re: Polishes With The Easiest Wipe Off
I’m sure someone will consider it blasphemous here, but I always wipe off my polish with a spray of Carpro eraser or 50-50 IPA. That way it’s NO Effort/simple and I get a perfectly pristine surface for the LSP. Since polish is a mechanical action, it doesn’t hurt to get all the chemicals off either with a spray prep. Been doing it this way for 20 years.

Re: Polishes With The Easiest Wipe Off
Not sure why it would be blasphemous to always do a wipe down. Is it truly needed? Not sure, but it surely doesn't hurt to give any LSP the cleanest possible surface when applied.
In regards to polish wipe off, I've found the Griots BOSS polishes and the current gen of Blackfire polishes wipe off really easily with the win going to the Griots. The older Blackfire SRC line and Wolfgang polishes tend to be pretty oily and even with a panel wipe take more effort/product/time to remove all the oils when doing a panel wipe.

I think Glen meant using IPA or Eraser on the initial wipe off. Like killing two birds with one stone as they say. I maybe wrong, but that's how I read it.

Correct……I have a very weak rotator cuff on my right arm so bearing down on the surface , no matter how easy the polish is to get off, it’s a bit of a struggle especially on a vertical surface. Spraying it and let it melt a bit just wipes it off quickly and clean.

Try griots brilliant finish rinseless wash mixed 6:1. Should loosen it up nice. Pure rinseless is another i’d try.
