Unfortunately you will hear a lot of things, "this product is better then this product" "This stuff is hard to get off go with this stuff" blah blah blah.
Only you will be able to really make that determination. Your best bet is to see if you can get some samples of some of the AIO products try them, see which one works for you in terms of both $$ and end results. Then use it.
Mike P. has a saying up here, "Find something you like and use it often". Here is a link to the article that talks about this:

Re: What to charge for AIO's
I myself was thinking somewhere between $125 - $150 for an all in one service. But that is just my opinion.
The AIO is going to take care of the 'waxing' part, now of course if the owner wants something more, then yes they should be charged for it. So your really going to be doing a wash & AIO for the end user.
BTW the only AIO product I've used is Meguiar's Paint Reconditioning Cream (D151) and I thought it did an excellent job for what it was designed to do.
I have a review that is mostly done with some before and after pictures I need to get posted. (also contains a small review of the new Poorboys Liquid Natty's Blue wax.

Re: What to charge for AIO's
Depending on the size of a car, I generally charge between 130-170 (depending on the size of the car) and use D151 as my AIO product.
That price includes wash, clay, 151, and just a basic vacuum and interior wipedown.
Generally takes 4-6 hours
I'm usually able to up-sell an additional "top coat" of carnauba though during these details.

Re: What to charge for AIO's
prices above look good. i live in a small logging community and do friends and neighbors mostly. my prices are way too low for a normal community but i am retired and just want to cover some of the product costs. i do cars for 125, trucks and suv for 175 and it includes full engine detail, interior shampoo extract, dress leather, vinyl, 3 step polish, and then wax sealant. would charge at least 300 in a real city. they still ask for deals. public thinks $50-75 should cover it. well sometimes i get fresh salmon as a tip

Re: What to charge for AIO's
WOW that's a lot of work for your prices, Dave!
You're right...here I would charge about 300 for that kind of work (WITHOUT including shampoo) if I'm doing a true 3 step polishing on a car.
