Was wondering how long it takes you guys to do this to an average sized car.
Wash
Clay/Nanoskin
One Step Polish
Wax/Seal the paint
When doing a one step polish, how big of a section are you tackling at a time?
Thanks!

Lots of variables such as how much surface area and how dirty the car is. I will usually work for 5 hours straight without even do a one step correction.

5-8 hours for me assuming I am doing no other correction or cleaning.

Just did this today on my dad's car (Father's Day gift) and took 6 hours. Small 2000 Toyota Corolla.

Are using an AIO or light polish removing light defects?

Used to take me 6-8 hours but the more I add time saving products (like a foam gun, pressure washer, steamer, blower, nanoskin mitt, etc) I probably save myself an hour or two. Also having someone there to run the water, help dry, and wipe off product helps a great deal. When I have large vehicles I usually pay one of my friends 50 bucks and beer. Lol. That saves a huge amount of time.
