Just wanted to chime in with my quick review. New black cadillac, needed to remove some swirls with m205. Then moved on to Carpro Essense. Essense was a breeze to remove by the way. A lot of nightmare stories about streaks etc.. but i found none of that. I believe a lot of these can be the result of leaving previous materials on. Thoroughly wiped off m205 with IPA.

On to the Blackfire Si02. Incredibly easy to remove. Perhaps the prep with essense helped but I did no IPA wipe down between essense and Blackfire Si02 and it removed incredibly easy. It got to the point i tried to make it streak by doing 2 panels and still couldnt. Its only been a few days so I will wait to see how it holds up with Florida weather. Definitely a fan so far

I'm glad you enjoyed working with the new Blackfire SiO2 Spray Sealant. A little goes a long way!

Definitely a great product !!! A little goes a long way. I prefer to use the two towel method for application. It really cuts down on streaking.

This is a hot product. I got a gallon of it and of the Booster, perhaps they are overlapping but whatever!

Cool, so probably just Essence with the SiO2 spray topper. I will be doing that next spring, but BF Pro Primer instead.

A little does go a long way. Love how it spreads. I'm using it as a stand-alone sealant; if anyone else is too let me know how it does against bugs, bird bombs, and water spots for you!

I know 6 months is the standard refrain for these types of products but if I can get 3 months of solid performance out of a good WOWA I'm satisfied. I'll probably add an extra coat or two on the "high impact" areas anyways.
