Hey guys...

My boss wants me to clean up her Suburban a little. Due to time constraints, doing a full paint correction is not in the cards. Basically a wash , claybar and wax. Looking at her paint, she has these spidermarks all over the truck.

So. i'm looking for recommendations on a ALL-IN-ONE that can fill the swirl marks and make the truck look decent.

If i had my way, i'd get a full 3 step paint correction....but that IF i had my way.

Something like HD Speed would be a one step that would potentially remove at least some of the swirls pictured. I haven't gotten to try my bottle yet, but everyone here seems to love the stuff.
 
Menzerna has an all in one now. Cut polish and wax. I haven't used it.
But for a solid cutting 1-step with good ability, I'd go for anything Menzerna Medium Cut line.
 
Doesn't this cry out for CarPro Essence? Or Essence Plus?

CarPro US has an off-label use for Essence Plus on their website:

"However… over the course of development, Essence PLUS grew into something… unexpected but equally satisfying! It is not coated… but uncoated paint that finds its way into the “cross-hairs” of Essence PLUS!

With Essence PLUS, we introduce you to the first NON-abrasive solution to repair fine swirls, when an abrasive correction is not in the cards! While increasing the gloss, Essence PLUS simultaneously cleanses the surface, leaving a “smooth as glass” feel and amazing hydrophobic properties!"
 
I would absolutely want to hit that red paint with HD Speed, orange pad and my Flex 3401.
 
In a pinch Meguiar's Mirror Bright polishing wax works well and is available locally. Works very well with a cutting pad.

If they just want a wash clay wax then look up wash, clay, wax on the rag company youtube channel.
 
Yeah that gm with speed or 360 on a MF pad would work great foam would work too but a MF pad if you have one is what I would test spot with.

Remember the test spot.

Another vote for HD Speed. I've also had success with Duragloss Total Performance Polish.
 
Gus,
Thanks for the pointing out the youtube. I really like the ONR 1 step process!!! I was wondering if I could do the same with other products like the McKee's 914, using microfiber towel and then nanoskin towel. Only thing is finding a wax spray that can use as lube completing a system as a one step. Doable?

Reason I'm asking is I have McKee's stuff in my shopping cart to start out. But I'm wondering if I should just go with ONR complete system.

You could ask Nick if fast wax can be used in the same manner as optimum car wax.

Yes it does, I would probably go for it, but I have both already, so it would be essence then essence plus..... but essence plus is fantastic..I love both products!
 
I use Meguiar's M66 for those applications. It does some polishing, glazing, and waxing.

The only drawback for someone in your situation is that it's only available in the gallon size.

I've been using it with black Lake Country flat pads. Absolutely love it.

Conflict of interest. I wouldn't work on my Boss personal vehicle.
 
When using HD Speed specifically for the purpose of a "quick" job where time is of the essence, do you guys extend the work area? So instead of dividing a hood in 4 sections you might do half/half?

I ask because HD's videos explain that HD has a very long working time. And they demonstrated it by doing half a hood. I'm trying to tweak my technique because when I used it on two vehicles I couldn't quite extend the polish that far out because it appeared to be thinning out sooner than later.
