Meguiars M105 + M205?

I'm out of griot's machine polish. I've been using the stuff with pretty good results for the last several years but the biggest problem I've had with it is that it's a 3 stage process for older cars, which when combined with claybar and acrylic sealant or caranuba wax, it turns the whole ordeal into a 5 or 6 hour job.

I've got the paint on the mustang and the audi to the point where that degree of work really isn't necessary as they will have very very light swirl marks. The volvo on the other hand, yeah it's paint is old and requires an extra degree of polish and protection to keep it nice.

I'm interested in these 2 products basically in an effort to help reduce the amount of time needed to do a proper buff/polish/wax and curious if any of you guys or anyone you guys know have used the stuff and if so, what did you think?

It's inexpensive enough that I may just give it a try as it's time for all 3 cars to get done.

btw, I'm using this with the griot's random orbital buffer and cobra crossgrove pads.
