Default first time using klasse aio

I used klasse aio for the first time and I cannot believe how easy it was to use. The application and removal of this product is just awesome. It really has a wet shiny look to it and did a great job removing all the bug residue from the front of the vehicle. I would strongly recommend its use and I must say its the finest
polish I have ever used. Its the s 2000 of polishes. Happy v-tecing!

I've been using Klasse for a couple years, and love it. The AIO cleaner wax is super easy to apply and rub off, and does a great job cleaning the paint surface of any crap (in fact I rarely need to clay anymore). But if you want a real impressive and durable shine, follow up with their sealant. Rub it on the whole car sparingly (a couple quarter-sized spots will do an S2K door) and let dry. Then go back later on with a water-dampened micro-fiber towel and a dry one. Panel by panel, wipe with the damp towel and buff/shine with the dry one. It leaves a spectacular shine and makes the car feel like it was varnished. Great stuff.

Some people also wipe on the sealant and then buff immediately with a dry cloth, but I like the dry-wet-dry approach described above.

Here's a recent Klasse job...

i've been a fan of AIO for quite some time. It's really in a Klasse by itself cuz I haven't found many other pre sealant that offer such depth. I normally would recommend topping it with another sealant or carnuba

The best thing about AIO is that it's extremely versatile.
It's a great cleaner with some protective qualities (I'd definitely follow it up with their Sealant Glaze or something else) and is a great base for other sealants and waxes. AIO + SG is my go-to for wheels.

My quick list of why I'll never be without AIO...
- Works on everything - plastic, metal, glass, paint, clearcoat
- Cleans - tar, grime, glue, brake dust, water spots, oxidized paint, what-have-you
- Polishes - in my experience, removes very slight swirling and scratches (used with a PC and polishing pad)
- Protects - sure, only slightly, but it's something
- Polishes metal - bare metal + AIO = shine
- Easy - to apply and remove

A few questions...I have read a few articles about Klasse on Autotopia and AutoGeek. Some folks recommend using Souveran or P21S over Klasse. Others like the SG. I just spent $$$ on Meguiars NXT products and my hubby thinks I'm for wanting to spend more on a Klasse based system. I'd like some opinions about switching and also which combo to use. I have no problem spending more $$$ if the results are worth it.

Personally i think SG's time has come and gone. Many of the newer synthetics are much easier to use and give better results.

Have you tried the Meguiars yet? One of the things I like most about Klasse is that it's cake to apply. If the Meguiars was harder to apply, that would be one big reason to switch to Klasse.

I have always used Klasse AIO and SG together. I also apply some Meguiars quick detailer between washes....
