What's your go to AIO?

[Beerwulf76]

Would like to know what would be the best all around AIO choice for a beginner on a small budget.Preferably something available in quart size and bigger.
Would Meguiars Paint Reconditioning Cream D151 be a good choice?
What do you use?

My current go to is D151. Mostly because it has decent cut.

I do want to try Duragloss 501 though. For when I just need a cleaner.

It does have the ability to correct, depending on the paint and pad of course. A stronger all in one from Duragloss is #671 Swirl Mark Remover. I haven't dialed in a process with it but I think Richy may have.

Ive always thought of AIO's as production detailing and not for use for us weekend warriors. I dont use AIO's at all but if i did it would definitely be D151 as i hear nothing but good things about it, very versatile product.

I used Optimum Poli-Seal with a PC and white pads on my GF's Accord and had good results- the correction was actually quite noticeable, even with the LC white pad.

If you go this route, keep extra pads on hand, I used 2 on the car, but 3 would have been ideal.

Just because you are doing quality work, doesn't mean every car is getting a full correction. I have grown to love AIO's and generally I add them on top of a wash and wax to add some gloss and remove some light marring. If you are claying, a paint cleaner or AIO is a must in my book.

As for my favorite I love Poliseal and the new Blackfire AIO. In terms of cut the nod goes to PS, but not by much. In terms of looks I have to say I have been looking how the BF product leaves the paint looking. And it preps for the application of another BF LSP. Win/Win for me.

I am itching to try Blackfire Total Polish and Seal. Is this anyone's "go to AIO"?

This is a very good point, that gets overlooked sometimes. AIO's tend to clog up pads much faster than a normal polish or paint cleaner would. It is important to make sure you switch to a fresh pad once the one you are using gets saturated with product. If you keep using a clogged pad you aren't going to get the full corrective benefits of an AIO. I tend to use 4-6 pads on a medium sized vehicle when doing an AIO.

Bad timing, I think Flanny just chimed in on this one. Sorry -

XMT 360 is my go-to AIO. I've been very impressed with it so far. But to totally honest I haven't tried many AIO's at all and its probably the detailing product that I've experimented with the least.

I'm pretty happy with D151 as of late.

[mackdaddyhibble]

Although there are many,and I'm sure some maybe better or worst,Ive only used D151 and I was very satisfied,especially after I applied a coat of carnauba

Ever try it on soft paint (like Jet Black on a 3 series BMW)? If so, how did it turn out?

[tw33k2514]

D151 is like God juice on soft paint. Highly recommend it!

[embolism]

I'm thinking poliseal or poliseal hybrid for my spring detail...
