    Removing polish with wax and/or sealant

    Yes, I am that lazy.

    Do you use this method? Which products are the easiest?

    This is equivalent to soaping up in the shower and then immediately drying off with a towel….

    You can do exactly what you want by just using an all-in-one which is wax and polish together, a good one is blackfire One Step.

    Re: Removing polish with wax and/or sealant

    I don’t actually remove all of the polish with an LSP. Rather, I don’t strive to buff to perfection as I immediately apply a wax or sealant with a small amount of polish residue still remaining and use the wax or sealant to finish.

    Ummmm.......

    If you are "that lazy", how did you muster the gumption to get dressed and walk outside to the vehicle?
    It is no coincidence that man's best friend cannot talk.

    •With the innate idiosyncrasies involved
    in attempting the total removal of Meguiar’s
    M07’s (“Pure Polish”) residues being the
    one exception…

    -I personally don’t ever use this method.



    •Rather:
    -I don’t consider it to be a “Best Practice”
    in the overall scheme of Detailing.

    •Then again:
    -If this method works for you guys…

    Could have swore I read somewhere on AG that a little polish residue actually aids in bonding.



    Of course I can’t find the reference now.

    It was a review of a specific paint cleaner or polish (No not DG 601).

    Maybe P21S paint cleaner???

    Re: Removing polish with wax and/or sealant

    Is this initial question referencing to a "method" developed by a famous detailer that he applies an AIO in 20 mins around the car and remove it with a "sealant"???
