Menz dusting? Any good prevention tips?

I used Menz IP on my truck for the first time this weekend and it really dusted up a lot. I like the RMG mix idea. Is there any other good products that can be mixed with IP and FP that wont reduce its cutting ability too much and still help create less dust? Thanks!

You could put in Red Moose Machine Glaze, it will decrease the cut a little bit. I've never heard of OP being added to IP.
 
The problem with water based polishes like Menzerna is that they tend to dry up quickly in warmer climate thus leading to excessive dusting. Try spritzing your pads with a little water. This will reduce the dusting and pad hop. Also, spin the pads on a nylon brush when the pad gets loaded with product. This will keep the polish from clumping up.
 
Use a rotary!! I hated how much SIP and IP dusted with my PC, but as soon as I tried it with my rotary it was like I was using different products!! I was getting almost no dust at all and it cut better and finished even nicer!!

Personally, Ive had bad results mixing Menz polishes with OP. I noticed faster buildup in the pad, and the IP still dusted as fast. IP and OP dont mix that great for me.
 
I still have some old (non VOC compliant) 1Z polish and I've used that with Menzerna polish at times. My favorite is RMG but 1Z is pretty good too if you have any.

After the abundance of dusting, I switched to the rotary for one panel. Same problem, only now the dust was all over the truck.



Im going to go with misting the pad a bit next time. It did start to get pretty hot out that day so that may have been part of the problem.
