Menzerna Polishes vs. Adam's Polishes. . Anyone tried both. .
What are your impressions?
I have been using Menzerna polish for a while now and it is some of the best stuff I have ever used? Now I am seeing alot of hype surrounding Adam's Polishes and I am wondering if anyone has tried both to make a comparison?
Any opinions?

both products are very good... I found that Menzerna products
were harder to remove after being applied whereas Adam's was not.
I think Menzerna lasts longer than Adam's, but that was a minor trade off for me because I wash my car on a regular basis and enjoy detailing it.

picture comparo of Menzerna vs. Adam's (BWW)
I know it's not accurate.. lots of variables.. but the Menzerna products leave a nice crisp and clean shine to a car.

given that they are both polishes, i don't understand ...
the notion of longevity. that should have more to do with the way you clean and interact with the paint after the polishing is complete.

Of course Menzerna is harder to remove . . .. its a sealant while Adam's is a Wax. Menzerna polish
is also meant to be used with a buffer whereas Adam's lower polishes are geared towards hand use.
They're really two different brand lines entirely.
I've used both lines and am now doing Zaino. Zaino is a middle ground between the two IMO . . . the ease of Adams with the durability and finish of a sealant.
If you don't want to do a full detail every 2 months, I'd look at a sealant. Otherwise the Adam's system is excellent.

Just for clarification, I am talking about the product lines, not just particular product of each. .
I definitely enjoy detailing my car so longevity of a product is not really an issue. I am just looking for the best possible products for Moro Blue which can be a challenge to keep looking nice and swirl/scratch free since it is so dark.
I have had alot of success using Menzerna Final Polish and finishing off with Top Of the Line Carnuba wax (best wax I have EVER used). I have not used any of the other Menzerna Products, but I am thinking about trying out the Intense Polish and FMJ to go along with the Final Polish.
I have used Zaino in the past, but I really prefer the Menzerna Final Polish + Carnuba over the Zaino products. . .
On the other hand, I have not used any of the Adam's Polishes so I am curious as to how they stand up against the other products out there.
Thanks for everyones input!
