    Question about Menzerna HCC300 vs PG1000 combination

    Hello, I read on Menz website that they got this Heavy Cut Compound 300 (HCC300) and claimed to be 2-step in one product (step 1: compounding + step 2: polishing) and for the 3rd step they recommend Super Finish 3500 (SF3500) plus the last step is Power Lock Ultra.

    My question is: Will it give me the same result as if I'm using menz PG1000 + menz SF2500 + menz PP ultra for the finish polish + sealant?

    Because the HCC300 combination seems so promising with newest technology and all

    Thank you

    What type of damage are you trying to remove?

    What kind of car/paint?

    What tool (if any) are you using?

    What type of pads?

    You might be able to get by with the 2500 and a polishing pad.

    If your set on Menzerna go with the FG 400 over the 300, it finishes WAY better.

    FG400 is a great 1-step compound but for me I do alot of wet-sanding/orange peel removal and SHC300 is WAY better than PG1000 at removing sanding marks quickly and even though it will never finish down like FG400, it cuts dramatically more and what's great about it is that no matter how significant the haze is that is left behind, I've always been able to jump straight to the finishing polish step (HD Polish+ or Scholl's S30+)

    I believe that is the purpose of the 300, it does cut more and faster. The op says he's working on what he believes is soft Toyota paint and if so the 300 is overkill.

    Yes this is my point, thanks, i won't do any wet sanding, so can i just go with Pg1000? Because that's what i got for now.
