    1-step polishes with no wax/sealant/coating... whatever?

    i'm detailing an old work truck so i used the sonax perfect finish 4/6 because i didn't want to do two polishing steps. as you know wax/sealants are getting easier and easier to apply so i don't mind the wax/sealant step. its nice to just use one polish step to correct and finish since that's what takes the most time. do you guys know of any other products like the sonax perfect finish?


    if it was my car i would of used something like the griots boss correcting cream followed by the perfecting cream or the rupes finish polish followed by the ultra fine finish polish but its not worth it for an old work truck thats rusting on the lower panels. it be nice to have some good options for this situation to save time. as you know this job is a lot of hard work

    I think you're looking for an All-In-One (or AIO) product. HD Speed is incredibly popular right now. I'd be curious to try Menzerna 3-in-1 too.

    Off-thee-top-o'-me-head...
    Here are just a couple of
    abrasive products that can
    finish out "LSP-ready":

    •Meguiar's:
    -Ultimate Compound
    -M205

    Menzerna FG400, Optimum Compound and or Polish,Megs D300, UC and UP are some of the ones I've had success as a one step. I'm sure there's a lot more when you add in the different pads available today

    Test what you have.

    The Correcting Cream may finish well enough.

    Or you could go the extra 1/4 step by applying an AIO like a wax with a DA and a light cut polishing pad after to add a slight amount of gloss

    Technically any polish falls within what your looking for.

    Here's a polishing compound

    Rupes UHS polish is another polishing compound with the UHS pad.

    m100 with a yellow uro-tec polishing pad is my favorite 1-step for hard paint.

    Scholl Concepts S20 and a maroon uro-tec heavy polishing pad for 1-step on soft/sticky paints.

    Nothing beat Rupes UHS for one step polish. You can get your favorite sealant or wax as you need. Don't use HD speed, the LSP that could me with it is very weak, and if you apply your favorite wax on top of them, it will dissolve away together with speed in 2 weeks.
