Klasse AIO is good for everything but what about SG?

All in one is obviously for everything on the car including rubber, plastic, chrome, glass, etc. But does the same go for Sealant Glaze?
 
I think SG is better than AIO on those surfaces. I have had AIO leave white residue if allowed to dry on rubber/textured plastic. There is a lot of variation in those kind of trim pieces, so it may not stain in all cases, and probably not at all if wiped off promptly. SG shouldn't stain at all.
 
I generally use SG on anything I use AIO on, and that's a lot of different surfaces ;) I don't put it on rubber though and I've found a W-O-W-O method (which I usually do *not* endorse) seems to give the most uniform look on textured black plastic.
 
Well, some of us find KSG very *easy* to use but yeah, others have different experiences. Seems like one of those things that people just have to try for themselves.



The last coat of KSG on my MPV's black trim is over a year old and it still exhibits tight beading (and no, I don't QD it). I know beading isn't the last word in longevity, but I also know how it looks when it needs redone and it does *not* need redone yet. IIRC I've only done it three times since new in 2002- each time I cleaned with AIO, four-six layers of KSG, then just washes until it doesn't bead/look the same.
 
APC and a stiff brush works pretty well, but for ease of use, you can't beat Top of the Line's GR-40. You can order it on the trim dying kit page, and it just melts through old wax stains, it's the only thing I use for reconditioning stained trim.
 
A probably-more-expensive alternative is the "dried wax remover" stuff from Griot's. Worked OK the only time I tried it. The Autoglym Bumper Care I like for a dressing takes off mild wax stains too (doesn't just cover them up, it removes them with mildly abrasive cleaners)
