    AIO Followed By Finishing Polish - Wipe Down/Off AIO Between The Two?

    My problem was my incorrect use of the term AIO, thus a vocabulary problem. I thought what I had was considered was an AIO but it in fact is a one-step polish. Once we sorted that out, the rest then made more sense.

    AIO Followed By Finishing Polish - Wipe Down/Off AIO Between The Two?

    Thanks everyone for the super helpful tips, suggestions, all of the above! I've almost finished the car with SF2500 this go-around and I must say, it looks really good with a respectable amount of gloss thus far. I was looking to throw that little extra step of using a finishing polish since...

    AIO Followed By Finishing Polish - Wipe Down/Off AIO Between The Two?

    Thanks Desertnate! You are correct, I had my vocab wrong. I was calling SF2500 an AIO but it's a one-step polish (which I assumed to be an All-In-One). So based on at least what you're saying, then I'm good to go with the SF2500 (not an AIO) followed by a finishing polish. I want to try the...

    AIO Followed By Finishing Polish - Wipe Down/Off AIO Between The Two?

    Ok gotcha. What would you recommend if I wanted to perform a light polish and to end with a ceramic coating?

    AIO Followed By Finishing Polish - Wipe Down/Off AIO Between The Two?

    Or, now that I'm thinking about it, the finishing polish is what I may be not understanding correctly. SF2500 takes out 2500 grit marks and the Blackfire SRC Finishing polish I have takes out 3000 (I believe). 3000 is finer than 2500, correct? I assumed that if I wanted that "Extra" finish to...

    AIO Followed By Finishing Polish - Wipe Down/Off AIO Between The Two?

    Hmmm...Ok I must of misunderstood the products. So, the Mezurna PF2500 is an AIO that is designed to: Menzerna Medium Cut Polish 2500 is made for the OEM market as a quick way to polish out light flaws and amplify the paint’s gloss. It has the cutting ability just a step below Super Intensive...

    AIO Followed By Finishing Polish - Wipe Down/Off AIO Between The Two?

    I was going to apply the finishing polish after the AIO. I know that Menzurna products typically are oil-based. Would doing the finishing polish + the paint prep not ensure I don't have issues with the AIO? Or, what am I supposed to do after using the AIO but before putting ceramic coating?

    AIO Followed By Finishing Polish - Wipe Down/Off AIO Between The Two?

    Hey guys, I know I've seen this answer before somewhere but it's been a challenge to find the info (for me) via the search feature. My question is, if I'm using an AIO to do some light correction (using PF2500) and I want to do a round with a finishing polish (looking to buy 3D HD+ today), is...

    McKees 37 Coating vs PBL Diamond Surface Coating vs PBL Diamond Paint Coating

    I just experienced this my self using McKee's paint coating for the first time. Its my first time using a ceramic coating. I was surprised to see how much it streaked which I assume is due to me using too much product. The paint was squeaky clean as my coating applicator (also a Lake County...

    Plan of attack - Black 2013 S63 AMG Sedan - Thoughts?

    I've used sonas on this car thus far with no issues. I do cut it slightly with a little bit of water but I've used it full strength, too.

    I can skip using the ironx on the wheels and just focus on the cars paint.

    Plan of attack - Black 2013 S63 AMG Sedan - Thoughts?

    Hi everyone, I'm hoping to get some advice/critique on my current plan of attack on correcting and then coating my 2016 S63 Sedan. Currently the car needs a very light paint correction due to the dealership washing the car after service as well as parking it overnight at a hotel where the...

    Wolfgang Fuzion vs Blackfire Wet Polymer Spray - Have both, here is my observation.

    Awesome! Thanks for the replies everyone. Based on the two products, I suppose I'm leaning towards liking the BlackFire better simply due to its really easy on easy off and super slick feel. In hind sight, I would of bought the gallon (or two) of the Blackfire for the cost of the gallon of the...

    Wolfgang Fuzion vs Blackfire Wet Polymer Spray - Have both, here is my observation.

    Hey everyone! I'm hoping to get some feedback regarding an observation I recently had while using Wolfgang Fuzion (spray) for the first time. I picked up a used 2013 S63 AMG Sedan in Black and performed a simple 1-step paint correction followed by applying 2 coats of sealant (both Merzurna)...

    Review: Wolfgang Fuzion Spray Wax

    I've never used this product before but picked up the gallon size to try it out :-). It seems like the most logical choice when you break down the price for the single serving versus the gallon.
