Mixing DG 501 and 601 with a Finishing Polish?

So I have been looking online for some new products to try out and I really want to try this 4:1 mixture of DG 501 to 601 and top it with 845. My question would it be safe or has anyone tried mixing a little more abrasive product with the 501 and 601? like MG 205 or something to get rid of a few more swirls? Would that be something that would work or a disaster waiting to happen?
 
You could just buy ZAIO, its like DG501 but with stronger abrasives and its more durable.

Dan--Is ZAIO safe to use (not removing too much clear) on an annual basis just to clear up any mild marring after a major correction that occurs during the year?
 
Thanks for your input I just ordered some XMT 360 (buy one, get one free) on autogeek. ZAIO is a little much to use on a DD but I hear nothing but good things about it I might have to take the plunge. :thumb:

It is very safe to use on paint, and very mildly abrasive. For me, its the perfect level of abrasive to make paint pop again after a few months of real life followed by a claying session. Its not going to remove swirls, at least not on any paint I have used.

How so? It contains no abrasives.



"With an emulsifying cleaner and very mild abrasive, Z-AIO gently cleans and protects while effectively enhancing light refraction and reflectivity for remarkable results. The advanced polymeric substructures within Z-AIO produces optically perfect layers to all paint types, yet also provides excellent adhesion and detergent resistance, resulting in a strong and glossy layer of polymer based synthetic protection."

Just what I was looking for to put under a coat of POXY--assuming I can keep it swirl free, but could also use a mild polish on areas that may have swirls. But VW paint is pretty easy to care for without inducing too much marring. Thanks!!!
 
That should be a great combo!

Ummm, different product? Dan was talking about Zaino All in One (ZAIO), not Klasse All in One (KAIO).
