    Re: Suggestions for one step.

    I feel like some people didn't read the OP.

    You have a lot of cool products/pads to play with, lots of possible combo's for a 1-step.

    Since you're new to the Duetto and have the Rupes products why not familiarize yourself with their system and find a nice combo. Maybe start with the yellow pad and yellow polish and see what kind of finish that leaves. If you need more cut, bump up either the pad or polish to the green. I feel like that combo should leave a pretty nice finish on soft Toyota paint. If you have the time of course, a 2-step process would be even better using their blue compound and finishing with the yellow polish.

    Let us know what you end up choosing and maybe post some pics!

    Once you get out the swirls the rids will stick out something awful so I'd have a plan to go after them unless he's just going to put them back in again. Sounds like you'll have to have the talk with him. It may not even be worth worrying about all the swirls if he's not on board with preventing them in the future.

    Thanks for the input....Hes really likin the way my mustang turned out after I polished it out and how good it looks even after a month of not even washing it. Its really in pretty good shape...and hes willin to learn and do what it takes to keep it that way. I must admit...Megs Hi-Tech Yellow wax surprized me. Dealer told him it didnt need wax cause it had a clear coat on it.

    Re: Suggestions for one step.

    If it's not too bad try the Meguiar's D-151.
    Often it works very well for me, but the finish is really bad the results or so so.

    Meguiar's White Wax is another good one, over the counter too.
    But from reding your post I'd go with the Meguiar's UC then top it with a good sealant.
