Is this a 1 step?
How is the finishing ability?
How it compares to 3D One or Sonax Cut & Finish?

Their polishes are terrible, IMO.

Not a one-step compound/polish and definitely not a one-step cleaner/wax.

From the description on the Autogeek store page it reads like a a FINE cut polish. See the below scale,

Heavy or aggressive cut
Medium cut
Fine cut <---
Ultra fine cut


I explain and share the above 4 category scale in my how-to books

:)Thanks Mike

I was refering to a 1 step polish
A cleaner wax I call it more a All in One (AIO)

If is a Fine polish then I definitely have a purpose for it and will be using it soon

So I recently spent an entire day Saturday using a DA polisher for the first time in my life. Like you, i had a free bottle of Resto Max that i decided to try on a tuxedo black Ford Fiesta. I used 3" hydro-tech orange pad which were on clearance. I also had a bottle of Meguiar's Ultimate Polish with hydro-tech red pad that i used as my initial test polish/pad combo. I did not do 6-8 passes over the entire car. I did roughly 4 passes on some trouble areas (dull/oxidized/resprayed) and a couple original panels in the few hours i had that day.

My n00b impressions of Resto Max:

A LOT of dusting
easy to wipe off
Meg's Ultimate Polish left more lubrication on the pad after finishing a panel.
stains textured plastic cladding trim

Reminder: i am inexperienced and my car has had several body panels repaired and resprayed so my results felt inconsistent. I was able to hide some deep scratches on the wheel arches, but similar scratches on the curvier spoiler did not go away. And other than the dusting, results look similar to Meg's Ult. Polish to my untrained eye. I think if i could learn to control the stalling of the pads, and did more section passes, I could produce more noticeable results.
