One step polymer reccomendations?

OK, before the detailing gods flame and jump all over me, let me explain: I have used Zaino for the last few years and I need to buy new stuff, problem is, I just don't have the time to put into the Zaino process of multiple coats. I use clay and am looking for a good and easy process, are there any over the counter products worth using? I don't mind ordering a product online either, I am just not in a position to be able to do multiple coats with multiple products.

I want to clay, and then apply a one step product which does it all, is there such a product available which does a "GOOD" job?

Have you looked into Zaino All in One or Klasse All in One? You could also try a one step wipe on sealant like Zaino Clear Seal or Optimum OptiSeal (which you can get through Exceldetail's site).

Nothing is going to do it all ... if you were using Zaino were you polishing out the swirling and oxidization with a PC prior to applying it?


Even the Klasse AIO or the PoliSeal has its limitations done by hand. Both will have a shorter life than a dedicated product like Zaino.

When you refer to "multipule coats " are you refering to the suggested Zaino proceedure? Which BTW is designed to sell his product.

In reallity all you need is the Z2 and the accelerator ( in my case Z1) and no need to keep layering it as it has diminishing returns adding life. In other words if 1 layer will last 4 months 2 aren't going to last 8.

Right now I am using PoliSeal topped with Megs #21 and getting 5 months life on properly cared for cars. BUT the surface is clayed & polished first.

Ahhhh..........ok, no flame, just a little heat though. The best cakes use the best ingredients. In other words, you can use an all in one, i.e. Optimum Poliseal, Duragloss Total Performance Polish, One Grand Clean N Wax, and get good results, but the protection values are no where near dedicated sealants like UPP, OptiSeal, or Megs 21.
If your insistent on using a AIO, go with Duragloss TPP (105), and use Duragloss AquaWax after each wash. MANDATORY for sustaining some sort of durability without prior polishing.
In my book, theres not a longer lasting or easier to use, all in one non abrasive protectant.
