This. Good call Berry!

Yup! I keep going back to these. Well, FPII for finishing...

Same for me, but I use FPII because its so great on soft paints, which is where I have problems finishing out M205. I haven't used 85RD, so my opinion might be different if I used that one.

m105, menz SIP, m205.

Agreed again, and for pads, I personally have LC hydrotech Cyan and Tangerine and LC CCS blue/gray for finishing. Some use LC Orange and White. I know Accumulator likes his Griots Orange Pads.



I would like to try Menz 85rd for finishing though, something I have not had yet but I will be due to the popularity and results.

Agreed.

And if I could have only three pads, it would have to be the Cyan/Tangerine Hydro-Tech's and a Black LC Flat.

I have Meg 105, Meg 205, and 3M ultrafine

 

[gmblack3]

No reason to have more then 2.



M105/205 is all I have used for the last year.

have you done a test with a better finishing polish like FPII or ultrafina (of course you have, I know). Do you not get a better finish?



I cant get a proper finish with just 205 as the finish. There is always more gloss to be had from a finer polish IMO Granted some people pay for it and some dont...so some get it and some dont

 

[imported_DiamondD]

menzerna,optimum,3m the exact ones' would depend on the situation.

IMO FPII and UF are only adding oils to the finish. Especially UF as its like using a glaze with fillers via a R/O.

Whats the big deal with the new hydro-tech LC pads?? Are they really worth the price.



My three polishes would be OHC, OC, OFP. Got to love optimum
