Default OMG.. the whole store.

Started out with the Klasse/Pinnacle kit... comes with a MF applicator and a few MF towels along with the Pinnacle spray. Nice, love it... and the pinnacle carnuba SMELLS awesome.

So, I have the 3M scratch remover already and a WhiteBoxTools Brand (haha) polisher (works awesome, btw... everyone get one!). Tried to get out the scratches put on by the PO and the 3M works nicely, but not abrasive enough.

So, I wanted the Menzerna products and ended up with an order for this:

Menzerna Intensive Polish
Flexible Backing Plates for Circular Polishers: 6inch Flexible Backing Plate for CircularPolishers
Advanced 7 1/2 Inch Hi-gloss Pads: 7-1/2" Advanced C.P. White Polishing Pad
Advanced 7 1/2 Inch Hi-gloss Pads: 7-1/2" Advanced C.P. Yellow Compounding Pad
303 Aerospace Protectant: 16 oz. Spray
Lexol Leather Conditioner: 16.9 oz. Spray
Menzerna Final Polish II
Meguiar's Chenille Wash Mitt
P21S Bodywork Conditioning Shampoo
Big Blue II Drying Towel

Default I wanted to make sure I got something that was matte...

I hate a gloss look. I'm gonna test it first to make sure it is to my standards, but from the reviews it looks good.

Default That's a pretty good haul :)

303 is good stuff. For my interior I dilute it 50% with water, a little goes a long way and it definitely leaves a matte finish. You'll like the Menzerna too, it's not that hard to work with once you get a feel for it.
