Default Menzerna 106HMFA

Home Made FA!

106FA
Pros: Dusts less than 106FF, probably the best polish out there.
Cons: Only available in 32oz, so no bulk discount, hard to find.

Heres a solution. Mix 1:5 Clearcoat RMG w 106FF to get the same results as 106FA!

CK red has fillers in it right? Have you done a ISO wipe down after using this combo?

FMNIUS..I mixed up a bottle of 75/25 85rd to RMG..have yet to try it out..my business has been really slow lately. I've also been busy personally, but I want to try it out soon...thinking with either my gray or blue ccs pad.

Yea that passed through my mind, but I did do a couple of wipedowns to get used to the new polish mixture.

Yes it does Dan, I tried once and did not see what all the hype was about. After using the Menzerna line you can get rid of glazes if you use them.

Even though it may have fillers FMINUS is mixing in only 20% and unless RMG was 100% fillers I would think that the chance of the fillers it has masking something would be neglegible if not non-existent. I would think that what the RMG does is provide enough oils to keep the dusting down like Optimum Polish does. Remember that just because a product may have fillers it is not soley made up of fillers. You would need to know the amount by volume to really get a good handle on their ability to cover up. Like I said I would think that FMINUS' mixture would mask or cover up very very little if any at all.

With that being said I can tell you Asphalt Rocket that I have had very good success with RMG after polishing and before LSP.

Better safe then sorry IMO. But as we all know, some "detailers" out there love fillers and they wont be sorry. IMO, they arent detailers and I dont have respect for their work. Like I said, those are just my opinions.
