Quick polish question.

I have the following in my arsenal:



M105

M205

Z-PC



I'm looking for something with a medium cut...



Will I benefit from owning PB SSR2.5 or Menz SIP?



Thanks!

I hate PB polishes period but as far as SIP goes, I doubt you'll get much benefit over using M105 with a less aggressive pad, something like LC white and/or green... SIP/orange is about as aggressive as M105/white imo, but M105 is so versatile and has too many variables to easily compare.



In short, I think you can get your medium cut with M105 or M205 and some 'matching' pads... I would be more concerned about a finishing polish as I've heard M205 is fairly aggressive on the softer paints.
 
Hmm thanks for that. Gonna cancel my PBSSR2.5 order then.



Z-PC is a pretty good finishing polish IMO since its a diminishing abrasive.



Maybe I'll replace my SSR2.5 with something else... maybe the 106FA but they don't come in "sampler" size portions.



Damn the Menz 32oz sizes! I think I'll try Menz products after my Zaino / Megs / PB stuff is out.
 
^ Yeah I've been looking at abrasiveness charts all day.



I think I'm good with what I have (M105, M205, SSR2.5, ZPC).



Once I'm out of these, I'm definitely gonna try some SIP/IP and 106FA
 
^ Very nice! Didn't know you updated it. Last I checked, SSR2.5 had 2 ratings! :)



Thanks, thats very helpful. Excited to try it out... heard about its dusting issues though.

Hey now! It was in its infancy! :D



I have found that when using 2.5 with an orange pad, I get more dusting than with a white pad. If you work it too long, it will start to dry out and dust. I have never really had much of an issue dusting but others have.
