I've been using McKee's coating for a short while and I'm getting Gloss-Coat in the mail tomorrow. I plan on putting Gloss-Coat on a red Challenger I'm working on this weekend. If it's still relevant I'll respond with my opinion about the two products next week.

Are you looking to in terms of application or overall performance?

I'm in the process of putting mckees on my ride right now, it's had gloss coat on it for about 2 years now. Gloss coat has always kept its slickness and gloss, beading kind of fell off a bit but not much, in only changing over because mckees is what I'm offering customers so I figured I'd wear it on mine too[emoji106]

As I was try 2 superior coating from PBMG umbrella PBL surface coating and Paint Coating V2, I recommend Gloss coat. Both PBL coating perform very bad on Honda sticky paint and will leave lots of high spots all over, while gloss coat having no such a problem even on Honda. Durability test from my Experience is that Gloss Coat Knock PBL completely as well. I can't imagine Mckee's to be better than PBL, so does Gloss-Coat.

What's sticky paint mean ?For 35.00 it's a bargain price coating and can get 4 good size cars out of one bottle.it's a very good product with zero application problems and last pretty good in terms of durability.

I know I prefer mckees over PBL as I was having issues with high spots as well on multiple types of cars.
I've covered 2 civics and an accord with. It issues of streaming with mckees,that's actually one of the biggest difference I found between the 2 during application

Haven't you ever experienced a car that sucking everything in? Black honda car in my country is very famous on this issues, it can even suck Menzerna Top inspection and make the whols area become sticky and hard to remove even top inspection with microfiber.

When that happens try different micros. Short nap on sticky paint,I once had a problem on a dark blue focus with mckees.But overall great product for the money.

Well buddy stopped by, cars been untouched since I applied the sealants. It's dark so used a spot light but it's still not the best. The tape lines are very distinct so that was cool to see.

In order of best beading as far as tightness and consistent size and shape

Meguairs fast finish
Mystery item

And cure and mckees are tied
