optimum compound vs mezerna power gloss

Hi,

From your experiences is the mezerna power gloss worth 2x the price of the optimum compound or hyper compound?

Thanks

 

No comparison. PG wins

 

That pretty much sums it up.

 

Ditto here, I've tested both on the same panel, same machine (Flex 3401), same lighting, and just couldn't into what the Optimum polishes due compared to the Menzerna polishes, especially PG and IP (and SIP for that matter).

 

i own both and Optimum for me just didn't' have the same cut as Menzerna, just my opinion though. I'm very pleased with Menzerna, great product to me it's worth every penny but again that's just me.

 

Do you have the compound or hyper compound?

 

I'm sorry but i dont really understand your comment

 

Sorry about that, was meant to say I just couldn't really get into how the Opt polishes perform compared to the Menz polishes. Same as Nice, nowhere near the same bite level. Man, I really chopped up that post now that I read it again...

 

What is the working time of the PG vs M105?

 

M105 is very quick, two passes and its done. Power gloss you can quite quit a few passes out it before its working time is done.

 

I have used Optimum Compound/Hyper Compound and the Menzerna stuff is definately better. Having said that, you can still get stuff done with the Optimum products.

 

OHC works fast with a wool pad and around 2000 RPMs.

 

What kind of paint have you used it on?

 

Menz PG is some powerfull stuff.. from my observations it has even more cut than M105

Compared to PG OHC is like water...lol

 

It maybe paint depended.

For 4 days I worked on a 2002 Carbon black M5 that was very badly sratched up. I tried every compound that I had but at the end I had to get some 3M Perfect it III to get the job done. On this paint 105 worked better for me than PG.

Most powerful compound:3M Extra Cut Rubbing Compound 06060

 

Interesting how different CC's react differently huh!!

 

Yes it is.

 

PG is a stronger compound though I played with OHC today and got some good correction

 

Thomas, on Honda, Toyota and VW.

 

I have to try that soon. I never went over 1500 with any OP polishes.
