Need another polish after Menzerna PO203S?
Got one of the DAS6 kits a while back, with Menzerna pads and PO203S. Done a few cars with it and been pretty pleased with results. However, looking at other Menzerna polishes has me a bit confused tbh; would I see better results/any kind of improvement by following the use of 203S with something else, maybe a bit finer?
Cheers

I find 203s usually finishes up really well and there isn't really a need to follow up with a finishing polish, although ive read on some softer paints (hondas) you may want to use 85rd or similar to finish off. Id say have a go and see how it ends up.

Yeah I used the 203S and then the RE85 with my Das6. Previously to that, my mate was talking about a respray lol
Get one of the DAS6s bought, make polishing a doddle!
