    Just bought a 3401 what compound?

    I did a search on this all I could find was older answers which seemed like everyone liked m105. So is that still the go to choice for most or something else? Thanks Joe

    Re: Just bought a 3401 what compound?

    I'll try to be brief, if you need more info, please, do not hesitate to ask:

    Also, if you can add what you'll be working on, that helps.

    Menzerna FG400.

    Meguiar's M101.

    Hope that helps,

    Kind Regards.

    Sonax polishes are great! No dusting, long working time, easy removal, and great finish.

    FG400 'Joe' Lennon!

    Also recommend you to follow Smack's thread on his technique concerning Menzerna polishes and 3401.

    Thanks for the mention Rafael. It is a great read and this technique is for DAT based products such as Menzerna and Wolfgang.

    I recommend either FG400 or Wolfgang Uber.

    I'd put in a vote for the Blackfire Duo. They are similar to the Menzerna and Wolfgang products.

    I've also used the Meguiars Ultimate Compound and Polish with success.

    I used Wolfgang Uber compound with the Flex and a Blue Hybrid pad on a Lotus V6 cup car and the results were unreal.
