    Smile Suggestions for one step.

    I am about to do a one step on my brothers 2010 Blue Tundra. Its never been waxed or polished. Still...the paints not too bad...mainly swirls and a few RIDS. It has been washed on a regular basis and looks decent from a distance. Out of my arsenal of products...what do you suggest? I have: M105/205....UC/UP...XMT FSR..XMT Finishing Glaze...Rupes Zephir, Quartz and Keramik...Megs #6 Cleaner Wax....#7 Show Car Glaze..#27 Hi-tech Yellow Wax... #27 Synthetic sealant 2.0 and Megs NXT Tech Wax 2.0. For Pads I have...Megs MF cutting and finishing..Rupes, all except white...and LC Orange, White and Black. I want to do what I call a one-step....AIO with an addional layer of protection of some kind....or a Straight Compound or Polish...with an additional layer of protection. I will be using a brand new Rupes Duetto and a PCXP. Thanks...Tony

    P.S. Test spot will depend on results of concensus..

    Re: Suggestions for one step.

    I'd recommend testing the Megs #6 first since it is the only true AIO in your arsenal. It might be good enough that you wouldn't have to do separate polishing and waxing steps.

    Re: Suggestions for one step.

    XMT FSR#2 could be a good one-step if the swirls are minor.

    Re: Suggestions for one step.

    On softer clear coats Menzerna Full Acrylic Jacket and orange foam. It's a great AIO and has more cut then most AIO's. It still has cleaners in it but it can tackle minor swirls without a problem in soft clears. It also has a decent work time and does not dry up quick like others I have used. Menzerna does not offer it in the line anymore but you can still find it.
    The only other AIO that I know of with good cutting ability is Werkstat Prime Strong.

    Thank you...I'm gonna try to work with what I have. I'm still learning and want to see what I can do with what I have. But I will keep your suggestion in mind for future products.

    Thanks....sorry for the typo. I really like the Hi-tech yello wax. I used it on my mustang a couple of weeks ago and it still looks amazing.
