Recently I just bought HD speed and with my Porter Cable with anorange pad I did the entire car yesterday. Results for excellent really happy with how easy it was to apply and remove. It's on an Audi A3 white I wasn't too concerned with any corrections considering the paint was fairly new and honestly I don't have the time to polish for two days straight HD speed was perfect for my car. My only question now is what could I top it with? I do have collinite 845 but I recently just saw in my local AutoZone had Sonax Net Shield. Who has had experience with this and is it worth my time applying considering the application I hear someone annoying. Let me hear your thoughts on if Sonax is worth it and it's durability? Thanks guys I'm really enjoying my old hobby once again

I don't "top" an AIO (all-in-one)
immediately after its application.

IMO:
That would make it an AIT (all-in-two).

On the other I hand, I pretty much always top HD Speed with HD Poxy as they are designed to work "synergistically" with each other.

With a da it takes maybe 20 minutes to apply HD Poxy to an average sized vehicle and this step adds months of protection to the Speed not too mention the depth of shine it adds. I let it cure for about 45 minutes then wipe it off.

Here's a couple examples of HD Speed topped with HD Poxy, from wash to finished approximately 4-5 hours max, boom done:

Just top it with a spray wax after you wash it in a week or 2. No need to turn it into a 2 day job if you didn't want to have to spend 2 days on it, right?😃

I have red pads would that work fine with proxy? I normally apply wax by hand. Sorry I don't have much experience

So the net Shield isn't worth it?

LC red pads are fine for LSP applications.

Im with Bob, if you are going to "top" it any way why did you choose an AIO? I wouldnt top it until the next wash.

This is why I prefer machine application, you can never get this kind of even coverage by hand. You also do it way faster and use much less product when machine applying.

Speed contains Poxy which contains Montan Wax so I wonder if the PNS would bond well??

Using Speed instead of a straight polish really amps up the shine/depth before adding a coat of Poxy so there is a reason to use and AIO rather than a straight polish.

If you want something quick you might give it a coat of spray HD Express wax--spray it on, spread with a foam pad, wipe off--looks great!

I use PNS quite a bit, but only as a topper on coatings or very clean "sterile" paint as a standalone LSP.

HD express was designed as a topper for speed
