Actually do all of the professional line have diminishing abrasives, if not how can you tell?

I believe all of the 80-series polishes have D.A.; though again I could be mistaken (just like my half-awake reply about 80/82 on the agressiveness scale -- I knew better, I swear! ).

Hey,

Each product in the 80 series intended for cleaning the paint, contains a unique diminishing abrasive tailored to that product's intended purpose. As such, depending on the aggressiveness of the product, it will start out somewhat aggressive and then break down providing a finer finish.

Meguiar's 80 series was designed with BC/CC paint in mind. Moreover, certain products can be used with a DA, others can not.

Meguiar's #85 Diamond Cut 2.0 and #84 Compound Power Cleaner are rotary buffer only.

But Meguiar's #83 DACP, #82 SFP, #80 Speed Glaze can be used with the Rotary, DA, orbital or by hand.

Meg's #81 Hand Polish can be used with the DA, orbital or by hand.

I hope this helps!
