I have a bottle of this on the way for my BFWD sealed car - I typically use Meguiar's 155 as a drying aid - can I just use the Blackfire spray, or would I be better off to dry the car completely and then apply the Blackfire?

You'd be better off doing this when the car is dry- I tried using it as a drying aid once, and ended up with more streaks than I liked. Using it afterwards, however, eliminated drying streaks when there were some left over. It keeps the BFWD nice and slick, though.

That's what I figured. I thought I'd buy a bottle and make my life easier. I just added another step to my washing process!

I use WGU mixed up 3oz to a gallon, add little Blackfire Wet Diamond and some Crystal Seal to it and it works awesome for me. No streaks and the surface is glossy and slick as can be.

I found that Crystal Seal (and the other WOWAs) do not mix well with water based products, that is they are not miscible at all. I do use them as a drying aid once in a while but no longer mix them in the same bottle.

They do seperate but I constantly mix them and spray. Maybe I'm plain wrong for doing it but it works for me. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
