Thumbs up Pinnacle's XMT 360 on a Honda CRV

It is pink in color, a nice pleasant smell. And I think it has a yogurt kind of consistency.
This is my neighbor's car, so I will be able to see the long term durability. I marked it on the calender
It is a 24/7 outside car, and black. So I thought it would be a great test vehicle.

The wash
Optimum car wash.

The Gameplan
To see how well the new XMT 360 would work.
I did not clay the car, for I wanted to see how well it cleaned. Oh, boy did it clean the paint.
How well did it correct, I will let the pics speak for me on this
How well is the sealent, and its durable polymer protection. I will let you know.

I choose the EDGE green pad, since it had moderate spiderwebbing.
Using between 3-4 pea sizes dots per section, and on the lower parts on the door. I used 2 pea size dots.
A few before



Look at the faded square on the left side. That is what the paint looked like



Hood after
A few scratches



What scratches











And great for under the door handles

What did you use under the door handle? Just an applicator by hand?

It looks impressive.. I really did not think it would do much on anything but very light scraches. I just received a bottle today so I'll have to try it out.
