So I been using menzerna AIO and enjoy the results but I'm not sure how long the durability is. I been looking but can't seem to get a answer so if anyone knows let me know. Also I'm always looking to try other AIO and have narrowed it down to Meg's d151, HD speed, or just buy more menz 3n1. Anyone know the durability on all 3 of these products?

HD Speed is awesome. HD Poxy last about 3-4 monthsish. So probably a little less?

I've been wanting to try Griots Finishing Sealant, maybe toss that in the last as well.

D151 is in my arsenal, but I dont think it lasts more than a month in HI. I never use is as an LSP though.

U should try Essence, supposedly the protection it leaves behind can last up to a year. And no matter how aggressive a pad I've used, it never has left any DA Haze.. even on black cars. Even if the protection lasts half that out here in HI it'd take it over the other choices.. stuff is legit!

I also use D151. If I'm looking for longevity I top with 845.

Right now I use menz 3n1 and top with 845 and or EX-P since I'm trying to use it up. Just looking at more options.

I like the durability and correction that can be
achieved from the below AIOs:

•3M: One Step Cleaner Wax

•FinishKare: #215 One Step Cleaner & Surface Sealant

•Klasse: Klasse AIO

•Meguiar's: A12; M06; M66; M305; D151;
Black Wax; White Wax; ColorX

•Mothers: California Gold Brazilian
Carnauba Cleaner Wax

•Optimum: Poli-Seal

As an aside:
"Topping" an AIO with a dedicated LSP, for added
protection/longevity (whether real or perceived),
is probably a procedure or practice that's best left
for an individual's personal preference, IMO.

Big fan of the relative correction and ease of use with HD Speed.

I've been a big fan of Meguiar's M66. Great, great product, but I did one recently with D301 on a finishing pad... It was really nice! Very easy to use, and looks great. Not sure about durability, but I'm not that worried about it either. She'll be going through car washes, and I'll be performing the service again this spring...

I've been currently using D151 myself. Don't really know about the durability of it, however the correction I get from is is phenomenal. With products like these I couldn't really expect to get more than maybe a months worth of protection.

I use XMT 360 and they claim it lasts 3-4 months.

personally i havent had any durability test,
because I usually re-wax my car every 2-3 months due to above surface containment and claying.


also I am against using finishing wax on top of AIO, because I think that just beats whole purpose of using AIO.

The longevity will vary. No way to say that xyz will last 5 months. Its impossible cause there are lotsa factors that come in to play. Thats why you havent been able to see a definitive answer.

I also agree that topping an AIO kind of defeats the purpose, just use a polish then a wax. Makes no sense to me.
