Xmt 360 Vs. Poli-Seal

[stiffdogg06]

Ok I am looking for an AIO for my mom`s dark purple car...



She doesn`t care too much for her car, but she gets happy when its nice and "shiny" as she would say.



So I plan on claying, Final Polish II, Intensive Polish if needed in areas.



Which one has a better durability? If you state which one is better, please have facts or some photos.



Or should I just do the steps and put a pure sealant on the car and top it with a carnauba wax.



BTW, I have Natty`s, I was thinking of "upgrading" my wax. What wax will go good with XMT 360 and/or Poli-Seal



THANKS GUYS!!!:buffing:

I haven`t tried Poli-Seal, but I did use XMT 360 to get me out of a jam. I had completed a black BMW 745 Sport Package and thought it looked great. Locked up the shop and the next day, the dealer called to tell me there were scratches on the hood and trunk. Plus, he had a potential buyer coming to see the car.



Well, I went over during my lunch hour and saw that the scratches were probably caused by some kind of grit in the microfiber towel I used the night before....just deep enough to be seen.



He wanted to re-compound the hood and trunk lid (messy, time intensive, not enough time to do right). So, I decided to try the XMT 360 I received the day before. I used a Metabo rotary with 6" pad (Meguiar`s 8006) and started at 800 rpm...zero correction! Then, I bumped the speed to 1,500 rpm and it worked great! The product literally finishes complete...just use a microfiber to final wipe.



As far as durability goes, I just don`t know. But, I do like this product a lot. I have a pretty decent BMW 3 Series to do tonight and will probably use XMT 360 on that car.



Here`s a pic of the 360 (and I added a coat of Pinnacle Souveran to deepen the black)

Awesome, car looks great!

Have used Poli Seal but have always added a top coat of Megs 21 or Natty`s to it depending upon the colour or durability desired.

It is a very nice product to work and would also stand alone. I guess AIO products are too easy for me although several of the new ones have great appearance and good durability.

XMT 360 is one of my fav new products out there. Easy on, nothing to rub off, and smells great.

I can`t wait to get samples of 360. Pics look great!

[joshtpa]

It is the best AIO I have used with a PC.

[stiffdogg06]

Sounds good, looks like I will be getting 360. THANKS GUYS!!!:dance



BTW, I have Natty`s, I was thinking of "upgrading" my wax. What wax will go good with XMT 360. Souveran is out of the question. $30 is prolly the max I will go on a wax.



Whats a good Quick Detailer to spray on top of 360 to maintain it? I was just thinking using the Crystal Mist...

[imported_Blake]

In that price bracket if it is appearance you want rather than durability Natty`s is one of the best IMO. If you want durability then Collinite products rule.

I`ve used three all in ones lately.....

PB`s Polish with Sealant

Poli-Seal

XMT`s 360



Of course I`m going to get slammed for this but 360 wins in my book. Just the right amount of abrasives and leaves a just-waxed look and feel. I`m now getting some anti-static signs.....lot`s of pollen here and I`ve noticed that it will not stick to a car that has 360 on it.



Oh yeah, very easy to use and will work nice in the sun.....even on black......

Used OHC and finished with only 360.....

No reason to be slammed. I expect many new products to be an improvement on the old ones. I think the bar gets raised often. Sometimes the old products still work fine but the newer ones add some benefit such as a tolerance to being used in the sun or increased durability. Sooner or later we will have a whole new group of sealants considering the new products such as Clear Seal and Opti Seal. Interesting times.

Opti-Seal is one product that I simply can`t wait to tryout!



There are so many combos I want to try with it!
