How do you use AIOs?

I am thinking about Klasse AIO and was wondering how to use it. Is it really as simple as applying it and wiping it off? I don't need to do any polishing with my buffer, or use a different polish to get rid of swirl marks first?

Think of AIO as an excellent paint cleaner, not a defect remover.

Some do have good defect correcting capabilities. Prime Strong does a very good job of correcting minor defects. But for the most part, and AIO is what it is called. An all in one type of product. Defect removal, paint cleaning, and sealant "all in one" container.
 
You probably know this, but most corrective procedures will be easier tackled using a machine. You will have more control over your outcome; Being able to use a large range of pads will supply you with the diversity to compensate for an AIO with little polishing ability. What kind of "buffer" do you have, and how bad are the swirls?
 
Different AIO-type products can call for diffferent methods.



With KAIO I don't overwork it and I buff it off before it dries.



I read somewhere that letting it dry will make its (minimal) protection last longer, but IMO it's too much of a PIA to buff off once it dries.

I was talking about Klasse AIO only. It might remove scuffs but not "defects".

I have a porter cable. I was thinking about getting Klasse AIO for it's durability. Zaino is just getting too expensive...
 
I've found that the KAIO is a great product while the SG is so-so.



Collonite 845 over the KAIO turned out very nice on a red Ford Contour I recently cleaned up for a friend. :cooleek:
 
I dont think SG is so so. But i do find that i top it with better products IMHO. I like topping it with Nuba or with Opti Seal.

Do you put wax on after KAIO?

I typically follow it up with Klasse SG. It can be a bit tricky to apply, but once you get the hang of it....it's really no big deal. You CAN top Klasse SG with a wax if you'd like and it will look good. Klasse AIO is a well rounded product. I use it on paint, wood trim in the interior, metal and even the exterior trim on my ford focus.



I also have Poli Seal and Poorboy's PwC as well. They are considered AIO type products as well. Poli Seal has some abrasives and can remove light swirling.
