I ABSOLUTELY LOVE MENZERNA! I started using the Optimum line this summer and thought I would give them a try. The only real reason I used OC this time is because I ran out of Menzerna IP. FPII is top notch, IP and PG is great but they do dust quite a bit. Im ordering some more FPII, IP and the other blackfire (menzerna polish) this week. Im still getting used to Optimum. I feel they have TONS of lubricants in the polish (hence the longer working times) but on the negative note with the optimum polishes when I wipe with a MF towel to remove the polish after buffing the smears liek crazy and takes a great bit of effort and multiple passes to remove. I resorted to using 50/50 dilution of alcohol/water in order to remove the optimum polishes left over smearing. With menzerna I use one MF towel and the surface wipes clean without the smearing. I think i may be using too much polish on the pad with the optimum. I'll try less next time to see if it helps. Menzerna will always have a place on my shelf for polishing though!
I dont like them, I will be using them today on the BMW and see how they do. Im gonna try a lot less polish on the pad. Also the Optimum Polish I have is very CLUMPY. I mean so bad that it doesnt want to come out of the little spout many times. I think some other members had the same problem and its just a bad batch. Im bout to toss it out. :sadpace:
