With the time my job requires, as well as building a new house, I'm realize that for the foreseeable future, I've got be to efficient with my car care time. Additionally, my 2014 silver Accord is getting a lot of miles monthly due to my job. I've accepted that it's a dd and not going to be perfect.

So...I'm looking for an AIO. I've used the griots one step and it's pretty decent. However, I'm looking for the "best" AIO. Decent correction, easy to use, and good durability.

My first thought was BF Total polish and seal. I could top that with CS if needed. If I were to go with tps, any other thoughts on a drying aide or topper? I have a ton of D156, but I'm not sure how those will play together. Suggestions here are appreciated.

Additionally, if you have any other AIO suggestions, I would love to hear them.

Thanks in advance. Anxious to see your responses.

HD speed hands down! Getting rid of my D151 and Wolfgang AIO. These pics are from the other day on my wife's truck.

After speaking with David Fermani from HD at detailfest and him letting me demo this product I picked up a bottle from him that day. I finally got around to trying it on my wife's truck and all I can say is HD Speed for the win!

Stuff is incredibly easy to use. These pics are with my flex set at 4.5 with a white LC CCS pad. Even did the hood with a orange pad set to 6 to see the results. Still didn't dry up or dust. Wiped off clean and didn't leave a haze. Seeing this as a money maker for sure.

How's the durability of speed, though? Any thoughts on the BF product I mentioned?

I'm going to be a little bit old fashioned and propose Klasse AIO. Yes, it has no abrasives so it will not cut (perhaps just a bit with a cutting pad or a polishing one), but then again - it's for your daily driver!! You'd probably want to retain as much clear coat as you can, not cut it each time (even if you're cutting very little every time, you're still cutting)

It is a fantastic cleaner IMO, and the durability is decent.

Another proposition - add a WOWA sealant to your list. If you're worried about the LSP's durability but don't have much time to care for your vehicle, this could be a good option for you.

Of course, coating is also something to think about in your case.

Just repeating something I've read somewhere before:

I believe I read that HD Speed is just made using a mixture of HD Polish at 75%, and HD Poxy at the remaining 25%.
You could take some of your favorite compound/polish and mix it with your favorite sealant and see how it goes. Maybe sticking within the same family line would be a safer idea. For example, 75% Menzerna 2500 mixed with Menz Powerlock @ 25%. Just an idea...

I've had great success with Chemical Guys V4 All-In-One, correction is ok and lasts about 6 months.
