Default Menzerna USA... What Do You Think?

Ok, this has been really bothering me at Autopia and I thought everyone here should have a look at this thread regarding Menzerna and the whole "filling issue" being addressed. Anyway, I really don't like the way Jeff Silver handles the issue and find him to be unprofessional and arrogant at times.

I think it just irritates me that their products are great but the way that the whole "filliing issue" was handled was done very poorly.

So what do you all think? I'm interested to hear everyone's take on the thread and the whole Menzerna thing.

Those guys are really opening up!!! Maybe Menzerna will take notice!

He's under attack from a lot of angles, which he should address. But mate, there is some name calling on that board that I wouldn't take either.

Let's face it: Menzerna was never made to be used by us shade-tree detailers. That market for him probably only makes up 5% of his total revenue for the year.

In other words, is he really going to care?

He could probably care less either way. I agree with you Denzil.

Threads like that do not help anybody. I am sure a list of people who do NOT think it fills can also be created.

I am sure there are people out there who do not think/know if a product is filling or correcting. The way I see it is if you think the product is filling and do not want to use that product, don't use it.

For me it really isn't about the product at all that I'm disgusted with. It's the way Jeff Silver handles himself on the forums. I mean, apparently he cares enough to post his thoughts regarding his products.

Don't get me wrong, I'll still purchase Menzerna because it's great stuff and I'm aware of how their products behave. I just dislike how it was handled from one professional to another.

I believe every single product fills to a degree. You just need to be aware of it. I never said Menzerna is a bad product, its my favorite. But it does have a learning curve like everything else. Many dont realize that.

wow, thanks for that link... I was just on the phone with Jeff few days ago and had no idea about that thread...

So what was the solution when using 106FF? I got kind of confused at the end of Todd's reply (#67). So use black/blue LC pad with 106FF to finish off?
