I'm looking to purchase some Klasse AIO and want to prep the surface before I apply it. The surface is in excellant condition with very minor swirls. I have the PS21 cleaner and 3M Perfect-It III Machine Glaze (05937) and 3M Foam Polishng Glaze (05996). Which would be the better product to use prior to using the Klasse AIO. I do have a PC and will be using it to apply the above. My plans are to use P21S wax over the AIO as I have the P21S wax also. Any prducts I should not use prior to the AIO? Not opposed to purchasing other products to achieve the results I'm looking for so I'm open to suggestions.

Also curious on suggestions on where to purchase the AIO. I was going to go through Pakshak because I wanted some additionl MF towels but noticed they have the 10oz Klasse AIO for I think $22. and looked at Autogeeks site and I think it was listed for $14. Thanks for your thoughts guys.
 
AIO will remove whatever oils are left over from any glazes used before it. You are nest of with mild polish.



I would use a nice mild polish by PC to clean up and minor marring you do have. As your planning to order from Pakshak they have a wide range of all the fave. mild polsihes on there. For me I would probably use Poorboys SSR 2 and a polishing pad before the Klasse AIO.



Alos consider a sealant before to use after the AIO and before the P21S.
 
Honestly, I'd go with Optimum Polish then as 3dog said, go with the Werkstatt line. Prime and Acrylic Jett look incredible.

I agree with scottwax, Optimum is a great polish that leaves a nice LSP-ready surface.



AIO will remove any chemicals, oils, fillers, etc on top of the paint when applied. This means glazes and products that hide defects, rather than removing it are also out.



As Richt said, consider trying a sealant between the AIO and the P21S. It is starting to get cold up here in the northern hemisphere so the durability of a sealant may be needed especially since you live in illinois (which gets snow, and therefore salt/sand on the roadways).

The sealant makes sense however all this attention is for my garage queen which is already tucked away for the winter and won't see the streets until April or May. BUMMMER. Not being familiar with the AIO product I'm assuming that my game plan is OK, which is at least as we speak, use the 3M perfect-it III, AIO and top it off with the P21S.
