AIO 's

[Hazcat]

Have you ever had Optimum GPS separate?

Way back when I first joined this forum, and placed one of, if not my very first orders with AG, I bought a 1/2 gallon of GPS. Bought it for use solely on my white cargo trailer.

I used it once, and about 3-4 months later was going to use it again and it was so badly separated it is/was unusable.

I'll be seeking other options in the future should I need such an AIO again.

GPS separates in high heat. You can't store it in your garage over the summer. Same thing happens with Poli-Seal and some of their other products. I've found numerous people with the same problem. This guy has offered replacements in the past.

You may want to contact him before paying to have it shipped to him if you even want a new jug. I find it works great.

Received a large order from AG on Friday which included a quart of XMT 360 AIO. Tried it today it worked well, smelled good and I followed the directions, buffed it until it disappeared using my Flex 3401 with a Hydro-Tech Tangerine 5 1/2 inch medium pad.

The truck I used it on was in good shape so it was hard to tell. I'll try it on something in worse shape in a day or so and will let you know more about it. It's a synthetic polymer so it should last a few months but I won't know for sure until some time elapses.

What I'm waiting on is the new Menzerna AIO that I read about here on AGO a few days ago. Searched for the post but can't find it. Looks like it may be one of the best, from the description, that we have ever used.

Wow interesting I didn't know Menzerna was coming out with an AIO. Great decision on their part. Just did an AG search is this the one you are referring to?

I keep all my car care products indoors, never subjected to high heat, or cold, the GPS never left the house. The first time I used it, I placed some into a new Mustard-Type Squeeze Bottle I got from Sally Supply. When I noticed it had separated in that I went back to look at the 1/2 gallon jug, sure enough, that was bad as well.

To me, it just wasn't worth it to deal with a return of product. No doubt AG would've replaced it no questions asked had I contacted them soon enough, but I let quite a bit of time pass with inaction.

I like and use-have used some other Optimum products and liked(d) them, such as Opti-Seal, OptiBond Gel and Tire Shine. In fact just recently grabbed a gallon of the Tire Shine.

No unfortunately that's not it. The post was from a gentleman from Europe where it has already been released. He said that we might get it around the first of the year. I apologize that I can't remember his name. I searched for quite awhile and did not find it.

If I remember correctly it's a cleaner wax AIO, not just a polish and he said it was an excellent product.

Menzerna just released their first true AIO last month well as a few others at the AutoMechanika show in Frankfurt.

Of course being in Germany where it has been released I was able to get my hands on it.

Mike,

I apologize that I could not remember your name. I have always enjoyed your posts and realize after reading them that you really know what your talking about. Just getting old and couldn't remember.

Really looking forward to your review. Can't wait to get some for myself!

Gary,

Not a problem sir. I enjoy contributing when I can although most of the time it may be German biased.

Anyhow, I will keep everyone updated as I go along. :xyxthumbs:

Best Regards,

Quick question. I just read several threads about Meguiar's white wax and how it can be used as a mild to aggressive cleaner wax depending on pad choice. Seems like a winner but I don't see it mentioned much here. Seems like it can cut like M205 or D151, but leaves behind a good amount (better than 151) of protection. Anyone have experience with it? From what I gather, it should be a very popular AIO but like I said, it hardly gets mentioned.

bump for question.
