About To BUY MENZERNA PRODUCTS, ANY ADVICE?
I was online and looking at the Menzerna, and i'm pretty set on what to buy. The Finishing glase, and final polish. Im not sure I need the intesive polish because I have no deep scratches, just minor swirl marks, and I think the final polish will eliminate that. I wanted to get the FMJ, but you can only buy it as a kit? I dont need those damn rags, just the bottle. Anything else I need to buy or sounds good?

Yea, I was thinking of the Klasse, because the FMJ is like $40, and I dont need the rags, got plenty of good ones like that. The intensive polish they say is for like water marks or swirls you can get your finger nail into. My swirl marks aren't that deep. But if I have to buy it, I gotta buy it. I didnt want to spend like $60 for all of this, but I may have to. I think the Zaino is a little cheaper, but I head the menzerna is better then that. IDK.

id say get IP/FPII i wouldnt get the glaze, if you want a glaze get something like Vanilla moose or red moose. i wouldnt bother with FMJ either theres other sealants like Meguiars 21, Poorboys EXP, Zaino etc. but if fmj's what ya want go for it.

So, what is the glaze? Do I really need it? And what is the best paint protector to put on, blackfire, fmj... what else? its a daily driver, so something that repels water and stuff would be great. and its red.

Ohhh, the Z2 pro is a sealent like FMJ or blackfire? I didnt know that, I thought it was just a polish for shine and stuff. I dont need the glaze from menzerna? the final polish will do just fine? after the Z2, can I put another coat of final polish on it? would like to layer this stuff up.

Z2 Pro is a sealant.
You shouldn't need a glaze if you do the job properly with the IP and FP. FP has slight abrasives which will remove a sealant, so you can't layer it, but you can layer Z2 Pro (or the sealant you choose).
It scares me that people let you use a rotary buffer on others' vehicles without knowing what abrasives/polishes do.

At work, its a lot easier considering I use generic stuff. We have three waxes. A compound which has like little grits of sand in it, a polish, and a regular wax. I know what abrasives are and such, but ive never used zaino or menzerna. sorry were not all geniuses about wax's and polishes like yourself Zaneo.
