Out of the 106ff and po85rd in which steps should they be used? Which should be the true finishing polish with a white pad and which should be used for more aggressive swirling and scratchs? Currently i only have the po106ff and been using it for a finish polish but im confused cause it seams the 85rd might work better as the finish polish? Any help here thanks!

106ff is a bit more aggressive (but still not much), so RD will finish better, especially with a finishing pad. Personally, I prefer Micro Polish as a finishing polish, IMO it brings out more gloss as it is the least aggressive of all the Menzerna Polishes.

Both are finishing polishes although 106FF has a bit more cut and can be used with a white or green pad to do light correction work. PO85RD does give quite a bit more shine but is strictly a finishing polish and should only be used with a black or blue pad.

Could you use 106ff with an orange pad and finish with the 85 on liek a white or grey pad? Will this combo work.

106FF doesn't have enough cut to remove heavy swirling. It is after all a finishing polish. I would pick up some SIP to add to your arsenal.
Try 106FF on green or white first. If that doesn't work, SIP on green or white. If that works, I would then finish with 85RD on blue or black. If not. SIP on orange, then 106FF on Green or white to remove any hologramming and then finish with 85RD on blue or black. I always use green instead of white. The green pads were made specifically to work with Menz polishes. They have 20% more cut and finish down better. It seems like alot of work but doing it properly is alot of work and the results are worth it.

I did not know that about the green pads, thanks!

[Truels2]

were is the best place to pick up some blue/green and black 5.5 inch pad's? And the cheapest place to purchase SIP and the 85rd? Any ideas? Also my vehicle is in damn good shape so im thinking i could eliminate the 106ff totally and go with the Sip on a green pad then finish off with the 85rd on a black pad how does that sound? or should i be finishing with a blue pad?
