    Menzerna 3n1 is my AIO of choice however I am a bit biased. I use it most of the time with the white Hybrid pads driven by the 3401.

    Menzerna 3n1 features the same abrasive material as used in PF2500.

    Thanks! I'm looking into that same setup with the white hybrid with my Flex.

    I use the same setup as Mike. I to find that if you leave it on the panel for a few minutes it becomes easier to wipe off. That said I've started to dial back how much product I use. After my first couple cars using Menz 3n1, I decreased to 3 or 4 pea sized drops instead of nickle sized especially once the pad is good and primed.

    Thanks to this post and all the feedback from you guys, I will try some HD Speed. If the results are similar I'd be up for saving a few bucks and put it in the piggy bank.

    Re: Menzerna 3in1 vs. HD Speed

    I have used HD Speed on a few cars now(yesterday a Ferrari 599)and am very impressed by the correcting ability and easy wipe off. Took holograms out of the trunk in 3 passes( roughly 2-3 minutes to do the trunk) and nice shine, easy wipe off. Not so much with the Menzerna of which their compounds/polishes I use almost exclusively for correcting/polishing. Not sure about durability but you can always top it with something.

    Re: Menzerna 3in1 vs. HD Speed

    i am a huge fan of Menzerna. i have use both 3in1 and HDspeed quite a bit, and my got to is HDspeed all day over 3in1. best thing is to buy sample sizes and try them for yourself. an 8oz bottle of 3in1 will go pretty far and won't break the bank.

    Not to derail, but if lasting protection is your thing HD Polish topped with a dedicated LSP is the way to go. Speed can be topped but you are really contradicting the purpose of an AIO. HD Polish + Optimum Opti-seal has been a winning combo for me for many years now.

    Re: Menzerna 3in1 vs. HD Speed

    What kind of durability are you seeing with Opti Seal? I just cant find a LSP that I like. Either it is hard to apply or easy to apply and wont last.
    And what do you use to apply?

    Agree that it defeats the purpose of an AIO to top it.
