4 Compounds/Polishes to last you a lifetime??
If you could only have 4 polishes/compounds to tackle anything that comes your way, including single-stage paint, during production detailing what would they be?
Preferably if you would list them in order from most aggressive down to least aggressive that would be a huge help. In other words what products would you have lined up for your test spot?
Reason I'm asking is I am running low on my compounds and polishes and my current supply consists of WTSR Meg's UC and UP. Although I am not unhappy with these products I would like the best bang for my buck on future purchases. I have two single stage paint corrections coming up and need to purchase some stuff before I tackle them. Any help would be greatly appreciated. If it helps at all my buffer I will be utilizing is the Flex 3401 w/ hybrid pads. Thanks in advance.

Re: 4 Compounds/Polishes to last you a lifetime??
I just finished a '93 Ford Ranger with Single stage paint. I used Meg's UC and UP with my Flex 3401 with great sucess. I used the Hydo-tech pads though, don't think it would make that much difference. I also used M205 on the door jambs and they came out looking great.
If I were to choose another set of compounds, I have had really good luck so far with the Menzerna SF-4000. but would recommend the FG-400, SF-4000 then Power lock combo. The Menzera seems to have a little longer working time and does not seem to dust as much.
I am sure that everyone has their favorites, but I have just been starting out and this is what I have found.
I hope this helps you a bit.

My new go to is d300 for correcting then m205 for finishing. D300 doesn't dust and has given me some great results.
