    I've used Meg's 205 and worked great in removing my swirls with a rotary also have #7 glaze and gave it a great shine, I also topped it with I think #27 carnauba wax and finishes off great and has a nice durability

    M205 is great... there are way better alternatives to M105. M105 is great at defect removal, but the dusting and tendency to dry like concrete on the paint is just not worth it. I keep some on hand for really heavy duty work... but I tend to go with D300 and MF pads for the majority of my compounding.

    If your new to detailing I would stay away from 105. 105 can be frustrating for new detailers. I switched to Menzerna it has a longer working time and 205 is a great product very easy to use. For sealants I use Menzerna power lock and SONAX Polymer Net Shield.

    What type of vehicle(s) do you work on?
    Is it a hobby or business for you?

    As for sealant, go with Collinite 845. It is an excellent staple in anyone's inventory.

    Its a 2nd self owned business. I work on mostly "regular cars and trucks". No BMW's Porsche's or anything like that where I am.

    I've read a lot about the menza and other products mentioned in this thread. I hear there are some from those brands that give a lot deeper richer gloss. I will need 1 compound for heavy oxidation 1 for swirls and light scuffs. Or 1 product that does both?
    And 1 good polish for after the first or to use on less damaged finishes.
    And maybe a finishing glaze or something to finish with that'll leave that show car shine. Something I could finish with for a good "wow" response.
