Best All in One ?

[BRUN]

I'll be moving out in the coming weeks and ill now be tasked with keeping 2 cars clean instead of just my own, im keen top save time by using an all in one, ill be applying it by PC, what do you guys suggest ?

 

[Coby.]

Limited knowledge but I like Tripple, It's a bit dusty but via DA I got what I thought was decent results

 

[Bluebeard]

By Hand; Auto Glym Super resin polish
By DA; Auto finesse tripple.

I think a really damp pad will help Tripple. Otherwise it dried way too quickly for me.

Lime Prime imo followed by a quick spray sealant. Literally 5 minutes using some.

Need for speed by Dodo might even suit. I just find them better than tripple by machine.

Oh and when you say saving time. If you protect it properly it'll take less up keep. Look out for the hydro2 threads. It's a genius product and is perfect for ease. Even after a light polish via PC/DA.

Autobrite cherry glaze is the best AIO for me. Britemax black max is very good to use with a DA

 

[Gally]

Blackmax, Amigo and Blackhole etc don't have enough bite for me. Britemax do an AIO though and they're products are trust worthy!

 

[BRUN]

hmmm Lime Prime might be an option as its really easy on and off, maybe in summer ill go down that route, but id really like a good all in one I can turn to when im short on time, ive got AG SRP already but its far too dusty, id like something that doesn't dust much tbh

 

[Gally]

Would you like me to post you some reload 2014 to fire over Lime Prime? You could literally remove LP whilst applying reload at the same time if that makes sense.

SRP doesn't dust at all. Unless you put wayyyyy too much on.

 

[Gally]

The new one is much better. Again damp applicator seems best to work it.

 

[Gally]

I actually have a large bottle if you want it Brun. It's the newish version.

Even the best all in ones will only protect for 4-6 weeks, so applying these every month is not saving any time at all. top it with a decent wax or sealant that will last 4-6 motnhs and you'll need to do is give it a quick wash and quick detailer wipe down when ever you feel the need.

 

[Gally]

Alluding to my earlier post Dave! <3 Look out for my thread tonight.

 

[Addicted]

By Hand; Auto Glym Super resin polish
By DA; Auto finesse tripple.

Exactly this, and as gally says Tripple does dry out pretty quickly, so wet the pad to keep it moist.


How about taking a different approach and have 2 products - Tripple (or something similar - preferably not with wax in, so Hydro2 bonds to paint rather than wax, increasing longevity - some sort of polish), then put Hydro2 on top. That or Reload, but I didn't get on with it at all so I personally wouldn't recommend it. That'll last for ages then.

 

[BRUN]

well I used LP on my car a few months ago and put Zaino Z2 on it, so on my own car it will be getting more applications of Z2

the mrs' car isn't quite as well looked after as my own, though tbh mines far from perfect, I just think an all in one every month or so would be the best option on hers

 

[Gally]

Why do that every month though? You can avoid doing it for 3 months really by sealing it in?

Lime Prime even with the simple Hydro2 over the top. Literally spray on and PW off, bingo 3-4 months protection depending on use.

 

[Yellow Dave]

But applying it every month takes longer than simply applying a layer of Z2 over the top once a month as it's a product you already have

 

[BRUN]

i know your all correct, i really should just LP it and stick something on top

 

[JW-172]

I personally think Autobrite Cherry Glaze is incredible by hand or DA. Has an almost infinite working time by hand or DA as it's more oily than SRP or Tripple and it leaves a brilliant result.

 

[Gally]

It didn't have amazing bite by hand I found.

 

[Ol’ Tarby]

I've got a bottle of cherry glaze to try. Gonna use it on the impreza once I get chance to.

Can C2V3 be used over the top, as I've still got half a bottle of that left?

 

[Gally]

Indeed it can. Will seal it in nice. Love C2. Very good spray sealant.

 

[Ol’ Tarby]

Cheers Kev!

Britemax products are hugely underated i think their range is brilliant

 

[BRUN]

anyone used the Finish Kare all in one ?.......ive only tried a couple of their products but been very impressed so far

 

[welshname]

I promise you I'm the laziest detailing fan ever. I used to love spending hours doing it and now I can't be arsed. If the paintwork is corrected to a decent level then by far the quickest solution is to apply HydrO2. It takes about 5 minutes to do an entire hatchback.

Once you've removed all LSP/Polishing oils you leave the car wet, spray it on a panel and immediately jet wash it off.

I love it.

Yep C2 V3 and AB CG is a good combo
