That was properly prepped, I would skip the AIO, and go right for the SG. AIO is abrasive, and I only use abrasives when necessary. If the car needs a cleaning, AIO will do a good job that. I found it to be harsher than PPCL, but when I used it. it is not so harsh that it removes swirls like a swirl mark remover does. Realize that a chemcal strong enough to remove oxidation with not abrasives would require rubber gloves to use!

Here is the results of my abrasive test, on a RAW painted aluminum propeller. Zaino and 3M IHG were the only products that did not take any paint off..............NU FINISH was the harshest of the group. SG also did not take any paint off, I tested it earlier but had none left for this test.
