Aio

[moeferg]

What is everyone's favorite AIO? What kind of pads do you use with it? Do you use it in conjunction with anything else?

I use XMT 360 on the wifes DD, works very nicely on a white pad. Sometimes I top with XMT spray wax.

XMT 360™ Corrects, Cleans, Seals: Remove swirls, scratches, clean the paint, and restore shine with xmt 360. swirl remover, paint cleaner, car wax, all in one, one step cleaner wax

For an AIO with some cleaning, D151 Paint Reconditioning Cream.
For an AIO that looks good and last, M20 Polymer Sealant.

I've used Z-AIO by hand and DG 501 with a white pad and liked them both. I would like to try some Poli-Seal or GPS next time. I top with DG 111 or Opti-Seal.

Duragloss 501 , great chemical cleaner with very very fine polish and durability last like dedicated LSP.

Re: AIO

IS the Duragloss the marine polish?

Yes

My favorite used to be Optimum GPS, but lately it's been Megs D151.

I'd really like to try DG501.

Bobby man to be honest, after reading many forums, i put my trust in any product you go out your way to get. If bobb got it, im getting it lol straight up 501

Blackfire total polish and seal or poorboys polish with sealant both excellent

I enjoy using Blackfire TPnS as well. Typically with black or white pad on PC7424XP.

DG 105 has a little less cleaning ability than the 501 but it would also be considered AIO. Would 105 be the more suitable paint cleaner for a newer car? I've used it before and then topped with 111 but I never used 501 and not sure if I need to on a newer car.

I've used DG 501 on new cars with no problems.

One of my favorite Mike Phillips' Articles: http://www.autogeekonline.net/forum...erence-between-cleaner-wax-finishing-wax.html

An exerpt from this article:
"A cleaner/wax or cleaning/sealant would offer some level of cleaning ability using either chemical cleaning agents, solvents and/or some type of abrasives and often times a combination of all three. Cleaner/Waxes are also referred to as One-Step products or All-In-One products. Cleaner/waxes can be used to restore neglected paint to good to excellent condition depending upon how bad of condition the paint is in and the cleaning ability or strength of the cleaning agents in the cleaner/wax".


Besides all of the excellent AIO’s/Cleaner-Waxes/Cleaner-Sealants pictured below…
I still like Meguiar’s A12...In the maroon bottle!!
