    Audi Q5 with PA High Gloss and more

    Just wanted to post some pics of recent activity on my Audi. The car has a base LSP of PBL sealant from June 2nd that I posted back then. Since then I went one month with no topping, the base still looked great but of course the time had come to touch the car some more. I added a few applications of Trademark Extender, started washing with McKee’s SiO2 Auto Wash.

    A week ago I did a Hydro Blue treatment. Below are beading pics while still wet:

    A week after that, washed with SiO2 Wash again, then some PA High Gloss, which may not have finished curing yet (pics from soon after the application):

    Sorry the pictures aren’t as high res as I hoped. The originals from my iPhone are too large to attach, so I email to myself and then use the option to reduce file sizes... not sure how to customize the size small enough that it’s accepted here but big enough to still have good quality.

    It’s very interesting. The sprayer only shoots stream. I expected a mist spray that would spread creamy like Poorboys Spray and Gloss (don’t know why I thought this). It was different than that. I also started applying in my poorly lit garage with a MF square and had trouble at first seeing when the applicator needed reloading. So I over-used, but eventually got the hang of it after a few panels and better lit areas.

    To sum up, application was new but something I think I will enjoy in future applications. For the look, I was expecting a lot, huge expectations. Maybe cause of price and what I’ve read, I had impossibe hype build up. The look is very nice so far, but did it meet impossibly unfair expectations? Still pending.

    The look before with PBL Sealant + Hydro Blue was also very good though. This adds crispness and the light dances around curves more after High Gloss is added. I haven’t even seen the car too much in the sun yet. The car looks stunning, but I plan on giving another spray down twice in the next 8 days before a family road trip, as I heard High Gloss can look great with layers as the TiO2 builds up.

    Thanks...

    I have the high gloss sitting on the shelf. Trying to decide what to do with it.

    Your feedback helps a lot...

    I recall you using Master Sealant lately. It would probably be great on that. I also recall you had PBL Sealant (sent a response once to asked if you had used it). I can vouch now that it looks great on that.
