A specialty compound for precious metals that produces beautiful colour and gloss on many surfaces.

Menzerna P164 is a universal colouring compound suitable for use on precious metals, aluminum, stainless, brass, coated surfaces, and plastics. High performance polishing minerals produce a light cut and high gloss colour sufficient for a mirror finish in some applications - much like Matchless 8B56 (Blurple). As a result, this compound is quickly became one of Stephane's favourites. Spectrum recommends pairing this compound with medium-firmness buffs like our secondary cut/colour buffing wheels and soft buffs like our mirror finishing buffing wheels.

Cut / Gloss: 4 / 6

Useful in many processes, follow with Menzerna P275 Finish and M5 Super Finish on precious metals and stainless steel. Although P14F Medium Cut and 480BLF are recommended as the standard aluminum compounds by Menzerna, we find that P164 Medium Cut and 480W Finish pair extremely well on softer alloys.
