I used 360 for the first time today. I had my PDR guy over to take care of a few small areas on a clients care that needed attention prior to my surgery tomorrow. His F150 was absolutely beat. I mean bad.

The `test` panel. The hood. Covered in, well everything imaginable. Overspray, sap, haze, swirls, scratches...the list goes on and on. I told him-hey, I`m gonna clean your hood up real quick, do you mind? I got the `negative ghost rider` and the green light so on I went!

Waterless on the go wipe down. Clayed with nano sponge-medium. Rupes MkII 21 with Griots MF cut pad. Speeds 5-6. McKee`s37 360. 2-3 passes across the hood and it was looking substantially better! Some clarity, reflection, gloss and slickness was returning.

I did one more slow pass at speed 5 to clear up some areas and knock out some haziness that was hanging around.

Final results? Not too shabby for an AIO and 1/2 hour times work. My PDR guy was blown away. Said he never thought it could look so good. He was happy, I was happy.

(I would have loved to have gone whole hog and used some actual compound and done a 2 step and sealant on it, but this was just a quick friendly clean up)

I also polished out the UV damaged and yellowing headlights with the same recipe.

How does McKee`s37 360 AIO compare with other AIO`s?

One of my favorite AIO`s was Meg`s consumer-line ColorX (not to be confused with ScratchX). Was kind-of like a cleaner wax on steroids.
AIOs are great for those who want correction and protection done to their vehicles in a short time without a lot of work, and if I can find a suitable (better) replacement for ColorX, I`m all for it.
 
McKee`s 37 360 is probably one of the best AIO products that I have used. I even used it by hand in a 16x16 area to see what kind of results I would get, on heavily swirled paint, and the results shocked me. It removed almost all of the imperfections, and then lasted for about 4-5 months before the water beading started to fade away. Great stuff!
 
Only issue i had with 360 was getting the pads clean afterward. I liked working with HD Speed a lot more, but I do believe the protection offered by 360 is better.

Maybe a more heavy duty sealant? I know I stopped bothering to try to get bfwd out of pads.
 
How does it compare to the XMT 360 which was the predecessor? The prior formulation was pink.
 
Thanks for the responses all. Paint was medium-hard IMO.

I`ve used HD Speed, Megs D151, and maybe a couple other AIO`s before. I usually don`t use them that much. I would say that 360 is in the running with all of them!
