yep prepsol works great, but IMO you still need multiple wipe downs to be sure.

I checked the price of prepsol at local auto-paint store, it's like $35-$40 a gallon(there are 2 different kind by 3M?). Gosh the ISA at drugstore is like $3 for a quart. Can prepsol does something extra that a couple wipe-down of ISA wouldn't do?

I like p085rd better. I feel it gives a look more suited to what i like. I rarely use either though. I dont usually feel the difference is worth the work on anything but the nicest cars. It will really shine if your doing a full polish from compound to a final(jeweling) polish with the appropriate pads polishes buffing speeds and a good rotary.
