    BF one step on a microfiber cutting pad will finish better than D166 on a soft foam polishing pad

    I use D166/microfiber when I'm only getting paid for a 1-step on a light color vehicle. Because it's non-diminishing I can work larger areas and D166 removes 70-75% of scratches and marring pretty quick.

    Anytime I working on dark paint or doing a 2-step correction BF One-step finishes better and wipes off easier than anything else on the market. Think of a product that YOU think is easy to remove (Britemax Blackmax) and I promise you BF One-step is even easier. Even though BF One-step has a little more cut than HD Speed, it's closer to Speed in terms of cut, Finish, ease of use than it is to D166.

    Wow, how are you getting 6 weeks out of Speed? I never got more than 1 - 2 weeks out of it. Also a month is a little concerning from D166, I hope in my cases it lasts a lot longer than that.

    I've always been able to get at least a month with HD Speed, even on glass. Maybe they updated the formulation at some point or possibly our application process is different.

    lol, I'm not trying to get your hopes up but I honestly think you'll find BF 1-step even easier. I'm looking forward to hearing your thoughts

    I used speed today for a minor correction for the first time and was extremely impressed with the ease of removal. I plan to top it tomorrow do not worried about longevity but it was sure a pleasure to work with and the results were fantastic.

    AG didn’t put the sample in the order. Review - Meguiars D166 Ultra Polishing WaxAnyhow, I had a sample of Meg’s D166. It left a lot of micromarring on the black paint I was working on. This was with a foam pad. Not impressed thus far.
