Product Review:Klasse All-in-One

I recently bought the Klasse All-in-one acrylic to "wax" my car. I bought this product over meguairs and zaino because

1. im too lazy to wait for the wax to dry
2. too lazy to do all the steps involved in properly waxing the car with these other high end products
3. heard the results are just as good if not better so i figured id give it a shot to see how it works

Well, after using it, i must say, its really really good. I get the same shine (some say better shine) than the mothers carnuba wax i used to use. Its so simple, i just apply it on the car and rub it off, theres no wait time, just wash your car, apply the all-in-one, then wipe it off and thats it! I get the same shine and with much less headache/work involved. Its been going 3 months strong so far with no need to reapply the acrylic. I wash the car every week/week and a half, and every now and then ill hit it with detailer spray after i wash it (only takes like an extra 10 minutes to do this), and the car has a showroom shine. I must say, i first felt i gambled buying this product but im actually very happy with the results

The detailing experts might knock it and say that meguiars/mothers is better, but you know what, who has the time to go ***** out on waxing their car every 3 months, this is quick and gets you the same results, so im very happy with the product. If youre like me and dont want to bust your a$$ for a nice detailed look, id recommend this product.

NOTE: I DO NOT HAVE ANY AFFILIATION WITH THIS PRODUCT, THIS IS MY OWN PERSONAL OPINION ON THE PRODUCT'S QUALITY, FEEL FREE TO ADD YOUR OPINION OF THE PRODUCT (maybe we can make it a sticky, or even have a "product review" section on the board for future reference)

really? i just apply the acrylic, and hit it with detailer spray after i wash it, does putting carnuba on after the acrylic make a noticeable difference?

Klasse Sealant Glaze & AIO are awesome products. Been using them for years on various color cars and have great results.

i was debating whether i should buy the sealant glaze too, does the sealant make it shine even more or does it just make the shine last longer?

I've applied Klasse All In One and 2 coats of the Klasse sealant and it is absolutely fantastic. One of the best products out there no doubt.

You should follow up the AIO with a pure carnauba wax as mentioned earlier.

Something like a P21S or Pinnacle Souverän will work good. http://www.pinnaclewax.com/souveran.html

The carnauba will add depth and give it the3D "wet" look.

I would only use the AIO once every couple of months as it does have some light polishers in it. In between just use a glaze or the carnauba wax. Avoid those off the shelf carnauba waxes at the local auto stores - most of them do not contain a high concentration of carauba, can contain some "cleaner wax" and won't give you that show car "wet" look. Remember to clay whenever the paint feels rough. When a car is properly detailed you should be able to run your fingernail on it and it will feel perfectly smooth and slick.
