Ok so here's my delima for my quicky detail I'm spending waaaaayyyy to much time on a car almost to the point of full correction so I'm looking for a one step polish/pad combo that will get rid of most swirls, and some scratching. I have been using SIP/IP with CCS orange pad on Flex3401. But I almost always end up finishing it with rd85 or 3m Ultrafine(more time). I almost can't help it because the cars look soooo much better with that second step, But I know that it would hard for a customer to tell the difference so I'm basicly shooting my self in the foot. What do you guys use for just a one step pad/polish combo? I was thinking about using MF cutting disc and UNO. I love Uno and have been told with MF cutting disc its possible to get the results I want with one step. I havent used an MF disc yet. Any way thanks for any advice!
 
Ever looked into Poorboys? They have some fantastic polishes that may be exactly what your looking for. Polish w Sealant and Polish w Carnuba both do very well on a white pad, have decent correction ability, and finish down LSP ready. Many people don't even use an LSP afterward. Their Pro Polish and SSR 2 also do very well as one step polishes, but they do require and LSP afterward. What I love the most about Poorboys is how all of their products do well in direct sunlight, which is huge for mobile guys such as myself.
 
Poorboys Polish with carnauba is a winner for me. Sometimes when you hit a customer that thinks wax will take care of all his problems, this is a lifesaver. It works great on darker vehicles, and can even be used in the sun...
 
I have had great success with Menzerna Power Finish on an orange LC pad. Haven't tried Uno yet. Pol-Seal or BF TPnS give a good finish as well and save more time but don't have nearly as much corrective ability.
 
if truly doing 1 step (as in polishing and protecting at same time) I typically go with poorboys polish with sealant which was mentioned earlier. LC white pad usually. Not afraid to leave that as the only protection. but if things go quick or if i'm feeling good I'll top with something like 845

I like XMT360 also. But I find myself using that more with marine work and less with cars. Does offer some correction though.

if doing 1 step of polishing followed by a dedicated LSP I usually choose M205 or SSR2. Pad choice kinda depends on the paint. Choice in polish kinda depends on the conditions

When you say 1 step you me just a polish or something that combines a polish with a wax?
 
After re- reading what your wanting , Poli-seal probably isnt what your looking for.But its still a great AIO ,just probably not the correction your wanting.
