Menzerna Polishing Compounds of Germany has set new standards for workability, uniformity, performance, and quality. Why else would Mercedes Benz use Menzerna polishes to perfect the finishes on their brand new vehicles?

Al-53 Top Secret Sealant done by hand.
I’m excited about this stuff. Its slicker than owl crap, you can slide a microfiber towel all the way across the hood. The longer it cures the better it gets. I done the vehicle last night and this morning before I went to work I was like wow. After work it got even deeper. I was like dang, “dang it boy” The pics I done the sealant has been on for 20 hours. IMO this is pure Sealant no cleaning power, I tried on some spots that would have come right off with DG #501. This stuff is thick about like Dukes Mayonnaise, maybe thicker and has a chemical smell to it. Sorry no grape, lemon or cherry smell. It goes a long way and very easy to come off. To me it looks like someone painted another coat of clearcoat. Big Al told me that this product is an epoxy polymer. I’m sure it’s about like Duragloss or Zaino for that cross link thing that ya’ll hear some talk about. LOL ….Al also told me it was designed for some military equipment or something like that. Hopefully Big Al’s friend will release this to the pubic. 5+ stars…..

That's a great job you have done there, Sparkie. That Lexus is looking it's best! By the way, what's that sealant AL is giving out to everyone??? I haven't got a sample...
