Hi guys, i sell cars and do a little bit of detailing on the side so i wanted to know how i can make my cars looks a lot better without doing a full out detail. I was looking at either Hi-temp, poorboys or chemical guys just because i can get good amounts of them at a time. what is the strongest/best (budget) polish that i can use on my cars without having to follow up with a finishing polish?? any suggestions help, but i really dont want to pay more that 50 dollars per gallon. let me know guys, thanks
 
Meguiar's #66 is a classic one-step for sales, it removes mild scratches, has some filling, and leaves wax behind. $28 a gallon last time I bought some.



Hi-Temp's HT-69 isn't a bad way to go either.



You really can't go much stronger than one of those on a white pad @1500 without needing a 2nd step.
 
Meguiars #66 also gets my vote.



Thats what i use for the cheap 1 step and 2 step packages.



It has enough cut to remove medium swirls. Similar cutting products would often leave marring due to the cutting power. However $66 has some fillers to hide the marring, this allows it to cut more with a given amount of marring. The combination of light fillers and a bit of wax gives a pretty deep wet finish. Sure its not as good as an individual steps but its 90% as good in 50% of the time.



As a one step i use a light cutting pad with #66, however as a two step i use a heavy cutting first and then use $66 with a polishing pad. I find the polishing pad gives a slightly glossier finnish, however i use the light cut pad for the one step for the extra swirl removal. Basically it depends on the softness of the paint.
 
I think the real question here is not what product, but, rather will the Flex have enough action to make these products perform?



One step products are designed to work with the heat and friction generated by the rotary.

I have no experience with the Flex...



BTW, Mequiar's #66, applied with a rotary (<1300 rpm), is a quick and easy process.

Make those cars 'front line ready'!

well I know HT-69 works well with a PC so the flex should have more then enough power for a one step
 
Some of my favorite One step Products available in larger sizes are:

Four Star Professional Cleaner Wax and Optimum Poli-Seal
 
Depends on the buffer and the hardness of the paint.



If its a hard paint and your using a PC then i'd actually use a cutting pad. It should leave no marring at all.



If the paint is soft i'd use a white pad on the PC.



If using a rotary then i'd go with a white pad or even softer.
