The Best One Step Polish/Wax

[SnipeJDM]

I'm looking for a good one-step product to use on my dad's truck. It's just a DD back and forth to work truck and occasional trail truck. Since it see's this type of duty, there is no need really to spend a ton of time on it, but I do need to get rid of some water spot etching and give it some protection. What do you suggest using? How is the Poorboys Polish w/ Carnauba or should I just spend a few extra minutes and two-step it. Thanks!

PwC doesn't contain any abrasives IIRC, so if the waterspots have etched into the paint, it isn't going to help.
My favorite 1 stepper is meguiar's colorX. Cheap, available OTC, and looks good for only doing 1 step.

booooooo gators! you just wait until next season when the golden knights whoop you on the grid iron!

Klasse AIO . It has light acrylic paint protection, and will equal a carnuaba cleaner product in terms of durability. You could also cover it with any pure sealant or carnuaba when/if desired for addtl protection.

snicker snicker, ha ha. good joke. I guess we'll take it easy on ya for the first minute or so to make you think you have a fighting chance. I can't wait to watch some Gator football.

Killer, I was just looking at Klasse on the website and it seems to have good reviews. I've never used a chemical polish before. I may get a small bottle on my next order. Thanks.

Mine is Megs #6. I just posted some pics with an Aviator that got it slapped on. Black too.

I like to use Klasse AIO or Poorboy's PwC.

I'm about to try Werkstatt Prime Strong - depending on its performance, it may become my new replacement.

I recommend Meguiar's ColorX. It cleans extremely well and lays down a highly reflective, long-lasting polymer finish. I've used Meguiar's #21 Synthetic and NXT Tech wax but ColorX is still my favorite! Try it and you'll be pleasantly surprised.

I apply ColorX with a Meguiar's G104 cordless buffer and I consistently get spectacular results that rivals any 3-Step (cleaner+polisher+wax) system! As for the G104, I highly recommend this cordless buffer. As a matter of fact, I also own a Meguiar's G100 and a Craftsman buffer and I always seem to go for the G104 due to its versatility and ease of handling.

ColorX + G104 = A Winning Combination!

I would also top it off with Klasse High Gloss Sealant Glaze. It is very durable, and that's what you want on a work truck...be sure to work on a cool surface OUT of direct sunlight, as HGS is very finicky.

If possible, do multiple coats of SG. I know you are only looking for durability, but the extra coats make a difference in appearance for not much more work.
