Best AIO that will not stain trim

I currently have a promo that I am running that includes an all-in-one on the exterior...it has proved to be very popular and is keeping me busy. I am currently using Pinnacle XMT 360 as my AIO because it claims it will not stain trim (saves time on taping off trim). I like how easy it is to apply and wipe off but I am looking for something with a bit more cut. Any suggestions on an AIO with reasonable cut (applied via PC) that will not stain trim and is reasonably priced?
 
FK215 or ZAIO. ZAIO is more durable but FK215 has great cut and finishes out as good as most finishing polishes..
 
I used Zaino (AIO) on all of my trim a while back. It removed the water spots that had gotten baked on the trim. I used a terry cloth and some elbow grease and took care of the spots.



Good luck.
 
The AIO's that I have used that stain are bulk products (Carbrite). I think Poli Seal is what I will try next. I might order a bottle of Poorboys Polish with Sealant too for comparison.

I'd be a little careful about what you use ZAIO on. I typically use KAIO on the black plastic parts of my Audis' sideview mirrors (OK, not really "trim", but similar IMO) and the ZAIO's seemingly mild abrasives marred the [crap] out of them. I had to get out some "real polishes" to fix the damage before redoing with KAIO.

No staining? I've never tried FK215, don't really know anything about it... :think:

Never used an aio that stained...



Autoglym SRP can do it, but yeah I still like the stuff anyhow.

PoliSeal has mild abrasives too, be careful with it, but report back if it works!
 
Ordered some poli-seal so hopefully it will be what I am looking for. I also ordered Optimum compound II for the first time. I have always used M105 so I am curious to try something new. Would poli-seal be a good follow up after compounding or will a middle step be required?
 
Poli Seal does not have much cut but it is a great cleaner. I like Meg D151 not sure how long the protection last as I always top with something easy like Opt Car Wax or Opti Seal
 
D151 will not stain trim? I assumed it would, I guess next order I will get a gallon of that for my dealer cars.
 
With the right pad Poli-seal is a great AIO.



Klasse is another great AIO, its just so runny though. I tend to make a mess with it.

I really have become a fan of klasse AIO. It does a great job, and no need to tape trim because it works awesome for black trim. I had some badly sun damaged trim and it made it look new again. Still looks a deep black 6 months later. Its a little thin and tends to splatter. ( Maybe poor technique on my part though ). The way I fixed that is to rub it in good with the polisher off and then start at a low speed. Beautiful results though. Got rid of water spots that were baked on for a few months, and even got rid of some swirls. I only used the LC white pad... Just my 2 cents... Wish it was a little cheaper, but its not too bad on the wallet for the results I got. It is also perfect to use after meguiars ultimate compound.
