Honestly, I think "1-step polish/2-step polish/3-step polish" is a joke. I have customers who either want a wash, interior or wax. And then there are the customers who want swirl/defect removal. I consider any "polish" that still intentionally leaves defects behind (i.e. a 1-step polish) a half-assed job. I have never had a customer that wanted to pay to remove only a little bit of defects or add a tiny bit of gloss. They want the whole she-bang. On almost all of my defect removals, I start with
M105. When there is only light-light moderate I use 205. A while ago I started to use products from
Menzerna for polishing. However, when 205 came out, I was once again addicted to
Meguiars.
