Best one step products

True, but why do you say "that finishes nice for the lsp"? Prime "strong" is a finishing polish with very little abrasives at all, much less than Optimum and certainly 2.5. It cleans the paint a lot better than those 2, and leaves a perfect layer between the paint and OCW. Which "should" mean longer durability.



I just wish that people would get away from the "one" step mentality. With spray waxes it makes things so much easier and removes the need for that one step product. We all know that AIO and other's like it will not last as long as most waxes.

My experiences with those two polishes on a polishing pad is they leave a finish ready for the LSP, no need to follow them up with a finishing polish. If the car your working on has heavy swirls/defects I'd rather use a dedicated polish to remove a bulk of them, rather then a finishing polish that might hide/remove some. If the finish is in good shape and the swirls aren't to bad than I guess using a finishing polish would be fine.

Do you kinda understand what I'm saying?

I'm confused. I've found that Klasse All-In-One, used alone, still outlasts most waxes. Now, by that I mean carnauba waxes, not poly sealants.



If I was only allowed to use one product on my car to condition, clean, and protect the paint, I think it would be AIO. But I haven't yet tried ColorX, but I plan to!



good detailing,

I use Long Haul Polish as my 1 step. It has decent cleaning ability and is pretty decent with filling in swirls. Also its not pricey and comes off easily enough. At some point Ill try ColorX and do a comparison.

Have you guys ever tried removing Prime with AJ:Trigger?
 
I'm really liking ColorX on my black Hemi and my wife's white Tacoma. I usually apply it with a pc and a polishing pad and remove it by hand with a microfiber polishing cloth. I apply it about every 4 weeks. Both trucks are garaged at night, but are daily drivers.
