Product Recommendation

I have a new black truck that currently does not have swirls or other serious problems, and I'm looking for the best product to use. I've been reading a great deal here, but the large selection of available paint protectants mentioned on Autopia has only served to increase by state of indecision. Of course, I would like a product/s that provide the best shine and durability, but I don't mind waxing on a frequent basis.



I live in south Louisiana where the weather is either raining, about to rain or has just finished raining. In between the rain are periods of cool cloudy weather in the winter to hot blazing sun in the summer.



I also absolutely despise stained moldings. To prevent this I mask the trim with painter's tape, but I would sure like to find a product that will not stain from incidental contact during application.



At this time, I'm considering the following systems, but I'm open to any product or combination of products.



Klasse AIO + SG + Souveran



Zaino Z2



Any input is appreciated!

I've gotta tell you..I used that exact combo on my black Benz this weekend.......SFP, AIO, SGx2...then Liquid Souveran yesterday. Very nice look..low dust..and the pollen even seems to be sticking a little less than with WG.
 
Yeah, the K twins (with or without the Souveran topper) will fit the bill and won't stain your trim. Other similar products that don't stain trim include BF and 4 Star UPP.
 
I live in Louisiana also, and also have a brand new black vehicle. I personally, don't like SG but I LOVE AIO. I use AIO + P21S and it looks wet all the time. As you know, we've been having rain on and off for the past couple weeks and the truck still beads just like the first day I applied the P21S which was about a month ago before the rains started. For some reason, SG just doesn't work with me, maybe it's our humid climate, I don't know but I don't like it at all especially on black.
 
Anyone use Menzerna FMJ on black? If so, how does it compare to Klasse or Zaino?



Without the carnuba topper , which suits black better Klasse or Zaino?



Do non-carnuba sealants like Zaino and Klasse bead like a wax or sheet water?



Thanks!
 
Is AIO comprable to GEPC? Should they be used together or kept separate?



Reason I ask is because I already ahve GEPC but it seems AIO gets alot better review and they seem like they are both the same step in detailing as each other...polishes I think?

Not sure about Klasse but Zaino beads really nice and also does not stain the trim.

The GEPC and AIO perform a similar job in general terms ( ie a "glaze", the step after polishing ).



I give the edge to AIO for the performance AND versatility. AIO is the *perfect* base product for ANY topper, be it sealant or wax IMO :xyxthumbs
