Default Menzerna FMJ or Blackfire?

I am going to be going with the menzerna intensive and final polish, and menzerna touch glaze, but what would be better to go with after that? The choices I have are Blackfire enhancing polish, and Blackfire all paint protection, or the Menzerna FMJ sealant. This will be topped by Pinnacle Souveran Past Wax. What would be the best choice? I'm really looking for the deep wet look on my black WS6. Thanks a lot!

Products are here:
Menzerna FMJ

Blackfire

I use the Menzerna/Blackfire combo and really like it. At first I wasn't to keen on the Blackfire, but it gives the back paint a deeper,richer look. I haven't tried the FMJ, so I'm curious on that one also.

I can't say - I've used blackfire but not FMJ (just came out last week)

Based on experience with other menzerna products I have a tough time imagining FMJ to be anything but stellar. When I get time to try some out I'll be sure to post.

Well, I took a chance and ordered some FMJ along with the Menzerna Show Glaze. This should be a lethal combination for my black car.
