Okay, I've searched and searched, but have come up empty handed. I'm sure it's around somewhere, but I've looked on MOL, Autopia and here and have not found the info that I'm looking for.


What is the difference between these two products(106FA and 106FF)? What makes one better than the other?

Skool me please :D
 
Well no one answer this one yet, here's my take: 106FA is the replacement for 106ff. To me their are 97% the same, the 106FA I think contains a lttlie more of micro-fine abrasives and dust less. It should remove light imperfections and holograms better but I still have the old version. Now this is my take on this product. Anyone else please join in.
 
Nick, the difference between 106fa and 106ff is a 'tweak' in the lubricants/carriers in the polish. 106fa will do a better job of holding the abrasives in the pad and keeping them from dusting off. This increases the cutting action slightly (not very noticeable in most cases since the 106's are finishing polishes). The finish between the two in most cases is indistinguishable.

106fa: slightly more cut, less polishing dust, slightly faster work time, pads must be cleaned more frequently to remove old polish.

106ff: less cut, can dust, slightly longer working time

I also find 106fa to be a little less finicky then 106ff and seems to tolerate humid days better.

But as far as hands on performance, the most noticeable difference will be the decrease in dust.
 
Thanks for ya'lls input! I definately notice the dusting being less with FA, but aside from that I really don't notice too much difference. I've tried side by side comparisons, and they were consistantly identical, which is why I posted this question.

Thanks guys! You're the greatest!!!
