I know that there was just a thread about this, but he wanted one for light polishing done by hand. I am looking for one for just the opposite reason. One for a car with really heavy scratches, and done with a machine. I have the GG one but not a super big fan of it. Basicly want to use if for cars that are older and just abused and never polished in it's ten years of life.

There is no AIO thats going to take care of a vehicle with heavy scratches. Just like there is no one step that will take care of it either. Poliseal is nice, and it will put a dent in it while leaving some protection, but don't expect it to correct a lot of damage.

Dodo Juice Need for Speed Cleaner Wax is a very under-rated product...well maybe not under-rated, but definitely not as popular as it should be.

As the above poster said, you aren't going to get much (if any) correction when using an AIO by hand.

I know that an AIO won't take out heavy scratches. I am just wondering if someone know of an AIO that has a heavier polish in it. I have heard a lot of good things about Poliseal though.

mix 106ff or SIP and DG501 in a 4 oz bottle....I use 1 oz of 106ff or SIP and rest 501....use a white pad speed 4-5 pc 3-4 on flex.

Have you considered a glaze to minimize the scratches you can't get out hand-polishing?
It iss an extra step, but an application of something like Poorboy's Black Hole (or White Diamond) didn't take me long and had a noticeable effect on my DD.

You might want to give Meguiar's D151 Paint Reconditioning Cream (http://www.autogeek.net/meguiars-paint-reconditioning-cream-d151.html) a try. It's generally recognized as having more cut than most other AIOs out there.

Mixing polish?! Now that's creative ;) Does it work really that good? I think I might have to try it

Meguiar's D151 would be my recommendation as well.

This combined with a yellow Lake Country pad will give you the most cut. Progressively changing pads; yellow, orange, green, white, will reduce the cut giving you a finer finish.

D151 is great, and that would be my recommendation as well as the changing of pads. Or just use the Kevin Brown Method.

:iagree::iagree::iagree:

It's actually supposed to have even more cut that M205. I just used it on my brother-in-law's Jetta (reclaimed water etchings) and it cleaned it up real nice. Too bad it only comes in gallon form, but at least it's relatively cheap.

In fact...Here is a thread Sully's Detailing just posted where he used D151 as a one step. (http://www.autogeekonline.net/forum/show-n-shine/33658-sully-s-detailing-2007-328i.html)
Here is a direct link to his facebook and at the top are the photos of the BMW. (http://www.facebook.com/pages/Sullys-Detailing/135242869143)
