Klasse AIO vs. Pinnacle XMT 360?

clor0x · 05-07-07, 11:55

Hey guys, I am going to be detailing a friend's sonic yellow WRX in a few weeks and wanted to give Pinnacle XMT 360 a shot as everyone on here seems to have great results with it as an all-in-one product. I only want to work on his car one day and this seems to be a great polish/cleanser/sealant for this need. I already have Klasse AIO and was wondering if XMT 360 is just a similar product? In other words, can I save my money and just use Klasse AIO? Thanks!

Klasse is more a chemical cleaner and sealant and MAYBE able to remove slight marring.

XMT 360 on the other hand actually has good correcting abilities for an AIO.

I have used it on my moms purple Stratus and it really made the paint look wet while removing a good deal of light marring.

Here's a brief history on Klasse Twins ->

Does XMT 360 work as advertised that there's no need for buffing?

Does this only remove light light swirls and oxidation or will it clean up the paint after using SSR3 on a heavy or light cutting pad?

It works very well to buff clear. But then again, if u use too much you'll have to remove the residue after buffing. I got it to go CLEAR by buffing but I still wipe it down to make sure the residue is gone.

It has LIGHT cutting power.

After SSR 3 you might want to try SSR 2 and then XMT 360. But you can try SSR 3 and then XMT 360 and see how it good it removes the micromarring. Experimenting is where it's all at!

One of the major differences is that XMT was made to be used by machine...KAIO can be used either way. I think personally, they have very similar correcting abilities.

Anyone know if you can top XMT with Klasse SG for added protection?

joshtpa · 05-08-07, 01:19

yes, you can top it with SG.

Here's a test with 360 to show a little bit of what it can do. I think it makes a terrific AIO. I would have to compare it side by side with Klasse AIO, but right now I think I give the nod to 360.
