Hmm, wonder why they didn't call it glanzerna?
I'm not crazy about the name either. Sounds like one of those "made for tv" advertisements.

SM dropped Menzerna for their own brand of who knows what... Now I see Jescar is dropping it as well. Where else do you guys get your Menzerna compound? |

Hi Brian, Quick Question - I've only ever used the StewMac Colortone Buffing Compound. It has worked well for me but is the Menzerna any better? Jescar seems to be a pretty good company, Have you heard anything about the new line they just released ? |

I thought it was interesting that Jescar gave a 1-1 mapping of their new GlanzMax (dislike the name BTW) line to the Menzerna line. Reading the announcement and looking at the packaging it almost looks more like a rebranding than a new product line. It would be easy to think that Jescar owned Menzerna and was just rebranding. That’s not the case, correct? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro |

Rebrand? I dunno... Why? Menzerna is an industry standard. I wondered if SM was doing that. I imagine these are asian instead of german made replacements. Not necessarily bad... I have used it a long time with nothing but good results and it is a known in my process. I know exactly how much to sand what and when and when I can switch compounds without needing to jump back. And another thing I know about finish work, the seemingly small changes will cost you greatest most times. |

I JUST got in a Menzerna bar from Jescar, so I checked their site just now. If you scroll down the Glanzmax page and see where they match the product to a Menzerna- the Menzerna is a hyperlink to that product and you can order from there. Seems it doesn't have it's own page anymore. |

I agree, Joe. The name is pretty bad. It's interesting how a good name can impact perception of quality. BTW, I've been trying to reach you without success - nothing important, just wanted to check-in since it's been a while. -- Simon |
