Cheap, Effective AIO for my wife's van

I am fanatical about washing, polishing and sealing my car. I know that. But it's a little harder to get excited about my wife's van given that it's relatively neglected.



However, I do like to fix it up for her once and a while and I'm looking for something I can buff on w/ a PC to polish and seal. Durability and value are key here.



What would you recommend? A Collinite product? A Duragloss product? Chemical Guys? Thanks!
 
the two best AIO's Ive used hands down are XMT 360 and Prime Strong. You cannot go wrong with those. I can walk away from 360 but I like to top Prime Strong with some sort of sealant, preferrably Acrylic Jett Trigger because they are most compatible together.



Hope that gets you started.

There are tons of good product that our fellow autopians recommend here. I do use Klasse AIO and SG. IMOE, it gives longer protection for your car. You can top its SG with DG AW, but haven't really use DG AW yet. For now Im happy with Klasse twins result.
 
+1 for the XMT360 . thats what I use on my wifes cars and alot of customers .It does some correction and you do not need a topper but you can add if you want. I have used optiseal and it looks sweet.
 
After reading some other threads, something I should have done before posting this one :o

it looks like I may go w/ poliseal. Cannot beat the price and lots of folks say it looks great.XMT costs quite a bit more per ounce. Anyone try the Poorboy's PWS?
 
autoglym super resin polish or 1z paint polish. (If you want to go a little further a second step would be collinite 845....realy easy and fast to apply and will add durability :) )
 
If PwS is as nice as PwC, then I think it would be worth a shot. As a whole, Poorboys products are about as easy to use as it gets. Personally, I'll use Poli Seal then spray on OCW as I wipe off the Poli Seal. So it's getting a little bit of abrasive polish and a wax as you remove.



I may have to try the XMT360 product here if many more people comment on it. 1 Steppers arent what I'm used to, but it sure would be nice if I could get by with them on light colored cars.
 
XMT 360 is a great product. But for a cheap effective AIO, I would go with Poliseal. You get a huge container of it. It is a great one step, and can be applied by hand or by machine. I also love Prime Strong, XMT 360, and KAIO.
