    Compound and AIO for a budget 2 step polish?

    I am looking for a budget 2 step options for my whole sale customers. I was thinking about pairing HD Cut with HD Speed or Menz fg400 and Menz 3 in 1. Does and have enough cut to remove compounding haze?

    If you go the Menzerna route, I know for a fact that 3n1 has the ability to pull up anything left behind by FG400. 3n1 has the polishing abrasives found in PF2500.

    Megs D151. Single step AIO, works awesome, very economical. I use it probably 80% of the time on all of my customers cars.

    Mike,

    The OP asked for a 2 step option.

    While D151 is great for a one step option, a better response would have been M105 and then following up with D151. This would have fit the bill.

    @OP:
    •IMO...
    -I don't see why it has to be a "2-Step".
    -A "1-Step" would be more budget-friendly.

    As such:
    •I'm with Mike on his below suggestion:

    Note:
    •The way D151 performs depends on pad selection.

    My whole sale guys bring me the cars that thier in house detailer can't clean up, i do 1 steps when i can. most of the cars i get are dark colored (mostly black), and they want as many defects removed as possible, but they like it quick and cheap as possible (they try to haggle prices, so i start high and let them haggle down to the price i was orriginally thinking)

    I still wouldn't discount D151 PRC from
    being able to accomplish this task.
    After all:
    It is a paint Reconditioning cream.
