I like 1z polishes but they dust alot. I've tried the Meguires 105/205 combo and wasn't really thrilled with the results. I have 1 pinnacle step 2 polish that removes a lot of swirls considering its 1 step.

BTW, do you own an atom or did you buy into a track experience for atoms?
haha, I wish...that's me riding in an Atom @VIR during a charity event. It was freakin awesome

Thats exactly what Phil recommended...but told me I could apply it via the PC, but on the Lusso site they say apply using your bare hand

Just use a low speed on a PC. It helps get thin, even, and perfect coating instead of streaks of thick and thicker coating. I suppose the Lusso company is worried about people trying to burnish it or applying it and trying to work it with a DA which is not the point of a sealant.
