I stayed with that until the week before Memorial weekend in May. I went with PBL Synergy topped with HG for this summer since May. I thought it was done until I washed it with Reset 2 weeks ago and its still beading and rolling off.

    Any thoughts on Synergy vs MS?

    Either way, thanks for the info on both!

    PA MS with HG on top is still the best looking LSP I have put on my own car. Synergy has been very durable for me. I like the SiO2 infused waxes and planning trying more next year. The PA ones especially. I just wish their polishes and primers were not so expensive.

    I like the SiO2 infused waxes too. I have Synergy, Dodo Supernatural Nano, MS and Famous all waiting on deck for me. Just need to find the special time to use each

    I'm from Royal Oak, MI living out here in the Great Pacific Northwest. I see all these other guys using far more expensive products and start to wonder if I'm using quality material...

    Those products are fine. Any protection that can handle rain out there should do well. You don’t have to deal with extreme heat/sun or salty winters. Even if you were, those wouldn’t be bad choices.

    Rippy D does a lot of testing of products in that area. Check out his Sealant Comparison thread if you do decide you want to try new products.

    I find my car, being black, looks great when clean, but man does it look dirty after a day in the rain, lols. The nature of a black car, eh?

    Yeah. Purchasing my wife a black car in early 2017 got me back into this hobby and way deeper than ever before... I blame the desire to keep her black car clean for my obsession.
