    think about it...

    I have and use both. I can't say one is better than the other. Each job requires a different tool..... Sometimes Meg's is the tool and other times its Menz. Both are top notch.

    I have the FG 500, sitting here on my desk just to the left of my monitor and it does cut fast...

    I am still a big fan of Menzerna and remember begging for us to carry it. Others exist, and years later I still reach for it most often. I do however want to try M101 ...

    Been using Menzerna for four years now, still love it!
    1982 Olds Cutlass - my summer toy.
    1999 Suburban - Black of course!
    2002 Bonneville - The Mutt, a mix of everything.

    Just proves the quote I've used ever since I started posting to forums...


    "Find something you like and use it often"



    Here's what that means,

    If you like a product, that usually means you like the experience of using it which includes application, that is you like how the product applies. It also tends to mean you like how the product removes, that is you like how the product wipes-off. It can also mean you like how fast or slow it dries or the fact that it doesn't have to dry at all and you can wipe it off immediately.

    And usually and most important, it means you like how it makes the paint on your car look and that's a huge part of the big picture of owning and enjoying your car, truck or s.u.v. or special interest car.

    You can't really know which product you like best until you've used a variety of products so finding something you like and using it often means you have to do some research and at some point make some purchases and then go out into your garage and do some testing to gain real world knowledge and experience.

    At some point you will find a product you like and if you use it often then your car's paint will always look good because it's only when you neglect your car's paint that it goes downhill.

    Just the simple act of applying and working-in and over the paint a smooth, creamy product, (that is formulated to make paint look good), has a polishing-effect and if done on a regular basis will preserve and maintain a clear, glossy finish and isn't that the primary goal of those that consider them serious car enthusiasts?

    How often you have to repeat this process to maintain your car's finish to a quality level you expect for your car's appearance depends upon how the car is used and where it's parked when not in use.

    A daily driver that is parked outside most of the time, either at work or at home, will need to be maintained more regularly than a Garage Queen that is only driven on sunny days. So adjust your car maintenance schedule to fit your lifestyle and the way you use your car.

    How do you menzerna fans feel about po85rd? Has anyone who's used it felt it really added a little extra gloss to the paint that other products just haven't been able to deliver? It's expensive, and I'm curious if it makes any noticeable difference. Those who have used it, any input on it on light colored cars like silver? How about black cars?
