    OK to polish with AIO before CMX

    I'm going to try CMX and was planning to polish with HD Speed followed by an IPA wipedown prior to the CMX. Would it be advantageous to use pure polish without a sealant (Megs 205)
    Will the sealant component interfere with the CMX bonding?

    Even when using Meg’s 201, and I’m not sure if it’s as oily as M205, but would recommend using prep spray or IPA before the CMX. It should bond the best this way.

    You can use CarPro Essence and not have to strip anything, may also even prolong the life of CMX.
