    Nope, not looking for an AIO. Just don't want to do multiple polishing steps before the panel wipe + coating. And trying to do it with products already in my arsenal. I thought 2500 might get me there.

    2500 is a medium cut polish. It should finish ok on light colors.

    2500 is one of my very favorite polishes. It does a great job removing defects, and finishes down beautifully on some of the more finicky finishes I've come across.

    It is pretty oily, so if you're going to coat, you'll need to be thorough with your coating prep product.

    I typically follow 2500 with Duragloss 101, which will remove whatever oils are left on the paint.

    Thanks. I've noted similar sentiment elsewhere when reading about the PF2500. Thought I might get lucky and it'd be perfect product for what I'm trying to accomplish. One way to find out, I guess. I've had it on the shelf for a year and never got around to trying it. Thanks for the tip regarding the oily. You think Eraser followed by a panel wipe with N-914 would be sufficient before the McKees coating?

    Also-- would DG 105 serve the same purpose as the 101 minus the abrasive component?

    Eraser followed by N-914 might even be over kill, but it should ensure complete stripping.

    Yep!

    I'm not sure on the abrasive content of either, however 101 will remove towel marks for me.

    Overkill. The less you touch the paint, the better. Use several MF towels for the eraser wipedown and you'll be good to go.
