I'm considering Menz 203. Would like to know what's your favorite one-step polish/ AIO.

Thanks!
 
i have heard great things with megs d151

i am using it myself on the wife's black caliber
 
I have a lot of cars that look fantastic with Menzerna SIP (PO83) as a 1 step. As long as you fully work it in and break it down it finishes fantastically well while removing some serious defects.

AIO = Optimum Poli-Seal

One step and AIO are two different things. If you are talking about a true one step (one polishing step with an addition protection step after) I would say that Powerfinish, SIP, and Meguiars Ultimate Compound are all high on my list. For AIO's I have to go with Optimum PoliSeal. I haven't tried GSP yet, but I'm sure that will get the nod after I try it out.
 
Menz Power Finish and Megs Ultimate Compound have worked well for me. I haven't used SIP.
 
I second the Optimum products: Hyper Polish for 1-step; GPS for AIO. (just tried GPS...a winner)

I also like CG Blacklight as an AIO on darker paint with minor swirls, which is a product very similar to GPS (glaze/polish/sealant). Expect 3-4 months protection and insane gloss.

These products have one important thing in common with me...VERY, VERY easy to apply and effortless removal (completely dummy proof), and work exceptionally well with BOTH a DA polisher, or by hand.

I've only ever used Blacklight as an LSP. When you use it as an AIO what pad do you use, and how many passes? Thanks!
 
I didn't get great durability with Blacklight? Hmmm I think I will try again?
1 step polish I like Menz 203s or Prima Swirl
AIO depending on correction level Meg D151, FK 215 or Opt Poli Seal
 
Pinnacle XMT360 is great to work with and I use Megs D151 when I need more correction.
 
Wolfgang Total Swirl Remover (Worked down properly leaves a great finish)

For AIO? Optimum Poliseal (The only one I have used) and extremely happy with the gloss it leaves
 
I like to use the XMT 360

One Step Polish Menz 203

AIO currently DG 601/105/501 mix, cleans well, protects. is slick and glossy.
 
Well some AIO can be used as a one-step polish too. hence why I included both.

Didn't really liked Poli-seal and First gen Compound II.. they both caked my pad to a point where... after 3 wash they are still not perfectly clean.. suck.

Exactly. I had a couple of bottles of 360.. got rid of them because d151 is cheaper and cut more.

Interesting, maybe I'll try this with a white pad in the spring instead of 106fa

I've only used it by hand as an lsp. Gloss is pretty insane for sure.
 
Duragloss 501---inexpensive, doesn't stain trim, great longevity, great shine, and strong cleaners with nano-abrasives.
