Best one-step for production detailing

Does that chart only have AIOs?

No it has the major brands' products from cleaner waxes thru heavy compounds. Google "Autopia Polish Comparison Chart updated 02/2017"
 
My go to All In One polish for daily drivers is Wolfgang Uber All In One. It has an aggressiveness of 6 on the Autopia Polish Comparison chart, and that seems to be what works for me on neglected daily drivers.

Wolfgang Uber All In One, cleaner wax, all in one polish wax
I didn't know that this and megs 151 had the highest cut of the AIOs, I'll have to go back and try it again on some cars to see it in action again

used to use it way back in the day and it was real easy to use and being able to use it on smooth (black) plastics was nice as well, it does a good job of cleaning them up. since having separation problems with their products, i really haven't bought any of their polishes/compounds/AIO's since then...

the white wax is more aggressive than the D151 and it's a consumer product...

I notice for one step type applications, I tend to gravitate towards diminishing abrasives - if I need something that starts strong, and finishes smooth. This is with both dedicated polish, and with Cleaner Waxes (aio).

The products I keep on the shelf/cart:
Rupert UHS/Keramik
Menzerna PF2500 - polish
Meguiar's M66 Quick Detailer - cleaner wax

Pads:
With Rupes, I just stick with their program. I like the Keramik with the yellow microfiber pad, but sometimes I get micro marring, and need to use foam. Last car I did with that combo, I got great defect removal with the yellow microfiber, but it slightly marred the paint. The yellow foam finished beautifully, but didn't remove the defects like the microfiber pad did. So I ended up using PF2500 on a Tangerine Lake Country Hydrotech pad.

I use M66 with either white or black Lake Country flat pads.


I might try M83 Dual Action Cleaner Polish again... It's been 20 years since I last used it, and it was terrible. The one Meg's product I never liked. It would immediately turn to cement once applied to the paint. I chucked the nearly full bottle in the trash...
 
D151 hands down.360 is to weak not enough cut.151 mixed with speed is awesome.
 
I've narrowed it down to three, and I HAVE TO order it today or tomorrow at the absolute latest since it looks like the details will be starting this Saturday.

1) Meguiar's D151
2) Wolfgang Uber AIO
3) McKee's 360

Can I get a consensus?

Any idea where it's at on the cut chart? And I'm guessing it's a SMAT? Weird it's a wax with that much cut in it

I don't think you can go wrong with any of these. I'd probably go by price at this point.

Don't know where it would be on the cut chart but Visitor is correct. It cuts more than D151. It contains the same SMAT abrasives that are found in M101. It can produce some really nice results with a cutting pad and can be used on any paint color. I've used it a few times and it worked out great. The protection lasts longer than D151 as well.
 
Pice wise is it worth it as a dedicated AIO? I'm going to guess no unless a little goes a longggg way

GOOD NEWS!

I talked to customer Service and not only will my order reach me before the weekend, they let me use the discount code for 25% off:dblthumb2::props::awesome:
 
I like both rupes Uhs and hd speed. Both products go on easy, clean and correct and come off easily. Can't go wrong with either one. Phil

When I spoke to Jason Rose (RUPES) recently at Detailers Domain event he stated that the UHS system is designed for European Cars that use Ceramic Topcoats. Can the UHS system by RUPES also be used as a one step?

No, yes...kind of. It compounds and polishes out to a final finish but is not a true AIO. It doesn't leave a protective layer such as a wax or sealant as a true AIO. You'll have to do another step to add wax or sealant.
