Iv been seeing 1Z polishes popping up every now and then. Are people using there proline(High Gloss Polish & Intensive Paste)?How effect are they?Do they compare with menzerna?
I've heard from Scott (killrwheels) from AG that those polishes require a little learning curve, and not as effective as Menzerna Nano polishes...I personally never used them, I love Menzerna polishes.
I bought the 1z Intensive Polish, I don't care for it, it's runny and gums up your pads. Menzerna is much better.
I've never tried Menz SIP, but I don't mind the 1Z IP. I didn't experience too terrible of gumming, but I clean the pad after each panel. As far as it's effectiveness, I used 1Z Proline exclusively on a Ford F250, here's a few pics: hood before/after 1Z IP/green CCS/makita: door panel before/after 1Z IP/green CCS/makita:
I like them. The Pasta Intensiv is a gritty compound but its initial coarseness quickly goes away and it behaves like a finer polish. Good for beginners too, because 1Z doesn't require high speeds. In fact they work beautifully between 900 and 1200 RPMs.
I have all three, however have really only used the Intensive Paste so far. I actually like how it works in and finishes. It is a bit runny, but I didn't notice the gummy part that others mentioned. Overall I'm happy with it, but I still use mostly Menzerna.
