    First Time With PBL Sealant

    I have just received some PBL sealant, all I can say is WOW! I really love this stuff, I believe it is the best sealant I have used so far the paint just pops. Here are some pictures of my recent detail using the PBL. If anyone is on the fence about this product it is well worth the money.

    When you say PBL

    Thank you for the compliment! I am very pleased with how everything turned out. I used two coats of Blackfire total eclipse tire gel for the tires.

    Car looks fresh off the lot. I've been on the fence for getting some since I already have Pinnacle's Paste Wax and previously used Wolfgang's sealant. Did you use the PBL lotion as well?

    My paint was in good condition as I corrected it after winter. I used Uber rinseless then followed up with Wolfgang perfekt finish paint prep. I am thinking of topping with the synergy as well, but that will be another time.

    Post back some feedback. This member over on Autopia was not to thrilled with the beading of it. He ended up polishing it off.

    Re: First Time With PBL Sealant

    Guz thanks you for that link. I agree with everything the OP in the article stated, the gloss and slickness and unmatched. It felt and looked similar to when I finished coating my wheels and when my dad and I coated his Subaru with Uber. I will certainly update when it rains next. I hope that isn't a deterring factor as this sealant has really impressed me so far. If the beading is poor, has anyone tried topping with synergy? I would hope that it intensifies the gloss but adds better beading qualities. I guess time will tell what I end up doing.

    Very interesting. I know a local guy who did the exact same. I just think some people don't like coatings or are expecting coatings to physically feel smoother.
