Can I use Meg #7 with AIO?

Hi there,



IMO, you wouldn't want to use #7 before AIO, as AIO cleaners would remove anything #7 leaves behind. AIO also has a strong polishing action than any action #7 would provide.



So you would have to use #7 after AIO, and it will work fine. The only caveat is that you will be unable to top with Klasse SG, as it won't bond over #7's oils.



Hope that helps.
 
I was hoping to use #7 instead of SG because I am doing my car tomorrow and dont have3 any SG. I would put it on after i would put down the AIO. Would that be alright or would it hurt the overall shine?
 
Sure you can, it won't hurt anything. Actually, it will probably make it look even better. :2thumbs:

Did you buy a bottle of #7 already?
 
Yeah, #7 should really be sealed in by topping with a wax. Left untopped, #7 will start to go away in a few days, and a heavy rain will take most of it off. It will need to be reapplied after a wash. By itself, #7 is really only a good idea for a showcar or something else that gets #7/driven or shown/redone. It's a "weekend-long" LSP, durability-wise.



I've never tried #7 after AIO, but I can't help but wonder if it won't just float on top of the little bit of protection AIO leaves behind, making for a less-than-swell appearance. Or if the solvents in #7 will compromise the AIO with the same result.



I'd much rather use either AIO or #7, and top whichever one you use with a wax. In the absence of a wax, I'd expect the AIO to last a *lot* longer than #7 so I'd rather use AIO by itself.
