I agree!!! You'll also notice, for some reason 2 users often tend to get complete opposite results with certain products!
I've never had any luck with Optimum OCW and coupe other items. Yet others love it! I've had 845 last a year on an outside parked car and some barely get 3 months. Plenty other example on YouTube and here.
I still like to read what combos work for others and try them out. That's the fun of trying new products and discussing. Products I certainly dont need as an enthusiastist lol.

We should argue about best place to get a plain slice and bacon, egg and cheese?

Exactly!! This is why I read/watch reviews but I still want to make my own decision so I try them out unless they just suck from reviews...hemi I agree with you on ocw I bought a bottle used it on 2 of my cars and never again (for me) I'd rather just use 156 # one man's opinion

I’ve also found it a touchy product. Duragloss Aquawax on the other hand, never a qualm.

Did you find the below link amusing when you responded that you "Already have champ" [called someone wrong] in thread #18... or is that different than disagreeing?
No need to act like a disagreement moderator 1 week later.

It wasn’t a disagreement and it wasn’t about personal experience, the guy was factually wrong. He gladly admitted it.
Appreciate you thinking of me all this time though.
If you would take out the price of Speed. And maybe would want more correction possibly and maybe even a little longer longevity from it. It would be very interesting to do a test side by side with Speed and 3D AAT 505 Correction Glaze. The later as I understand it is much like Speed. But with a higher amount with the abrasives and also without the silicone and just the Montan wax in it. The silicone though could be getting it a little longer longevity and also a higher gloss. I think that it would be an interesting product to test out if you like Speed and could maybe find one that is very a like and maybe better results.
I think that many manufactures has seen that many likes AIO. And with that have made them with a higher amount of abrasives in them so they are more like a polish in that sense. Before AIO was more depending on the cleaning ability from their chemicals in them. And to get a little of the scratches and swirls out the amount of abrasives was not needed to be as much. But to evolve the AIO I think they saw the benefits with the more true correction from the AIO and not when the protection and glossenhancers worn off you still had a marred and light scratched finish. So I can see the benefits with both options of useing polish and protection or an AIO. And also if you get the same longevity from a topped AIO vs the topper on it's own. It's just about personal preference and which suits your work with them.

5 day update on HD Speed: Ok so I’ve driven my car approximately 50 miles since polishing with HD Speed this past Monday. [fair weather, no rain]
I washed my car last night which was the 1st time I touched the car since Monday... There was no beading whatsoever.
Btw this is what the beading looked like just prior to polishing with HD Speed. [and this is after 5 straight days of heavy rain]
Just for comparison, this is Meguiars D156 Synthetic Spray Wax after 1 month on my brothers Jeep which averages 1,000 highway miles per week and was absolutely filthy after 1 month... D156 still beaded quite impressive.
Just goes to show...

Wow thanks for the update Eldorado.
The more I've read and researched, it seems the AIOs are good for detailers offering a 1 step package. To spruce up a customers car, who will not pay for a 2 step or complete correction.
For my friends and family cars, it may be easier to use Boss Correcting cream, followed by an easy to apply sealant and be done.

Couldn’t have said it any better... Boss Correcting Cream can even be used in direct sunlight too. You’ll have better luck using it in the sun than you will most sealants. Lol.

Eldo, I assume your brother’s Jeep had no base LSP, just the D156 applied a month ago?
I knew HD Speed wasn’t durable, but being totally gone after 5-6 days is disappointing. I should note that I’ve never tested longevity with it as I’ve always topped within a week or two, but in my experience there was still some beading at the 1-2 week point.

The paint on my brothers Jeep was as bare as can be. Zero beading prior to washing and zero during the post wash rinse. I used D156 liberally as a drying aid. I was very surprised at how it was beading when I 1st rinsed it down. The beading was just as strong post wash too. Crazy.
This is how dirty it was to give you an idea of how neglected it usually is... Well maybe neglect isn’t the right word, it’s just on the road alot. A true workhorse.

Lol. That Raiders sticker’s covering up a nasty deep scratch. Lol.
Speaking of scratches, I just discovered a couple of new ones on my car after last nights wash... My goodness.

You think your wash caused the scratches, or just something you hadn’t noticed previously?

No these weren’t wash induced... These are deep dare I say deliberate scratches. Either that or these people with CUV’s are even more annoying than thought possible.

You can go right to Poxy after Speed. Very synergistic.
