IGL Premier as a stand alone

**CleanIT** · 07-09-2021, 07:31 AM

How is Premier holding up for those using it as a stand alone? A bit pricey, but from what I've read it performs quite well.

I currently have the lazy man's Wet Coat on both our cars. Will likely move to Can Coat before winter for durability, but quite happy with the easy of use via Wet Coat.

Premier seems to be extremely easy to apply, has great hydrophobics and lasts a good 6 months under certain conditions.

Right off the bat it's way too expensive, kind of silly honestly.

But with that out of the way it is very good. It's what is currently in my car and I've used it as a standalone when I have used it. The 6 months durability claims are legit and I definitely get 5-7 months out of it on my car which is a daily driver, however it is garaged.

I live in Michigan and I've used it in the winter and it had no problem getting me through the winter. It's very easy to use, little goes a long way,good durability, good gloss. Of the products I've used it's the only spray sealant that (at least in the first 2 months or so) the water behavior does a good job mimicking a true ceramic coating.

Premiere is good for 4 to 6 months in most cases. I've seen it last as long as 8 to 9 months with a small amount of protection left. Be sure you use a panel wipe before application for best results and make sure the panels are cool.

The only reason I have it is because years ago there was a 25% and free shipping and I was using 6 months same as cash on my PayPal during Christmas shopping.

That said it's a very nice product with ease of use, shine and durability.

Reason I haven’t bought it. Wouldn’t use it up.

Mine is much older

I guess I'll use it on my wheels to see what happens

I'd buy the small bottle and make sure i use most of it knowing the expiration date. If it can be layered, I'd double up or use it as a drying aid. Either way I'd make sure I try and use it.

Thing is, Can Coat is a better option in this price range IMO. And easy to use.

I install IGL Coatings and have started also using many of their other products in my business. I have yet to find one that isnt remarkable! I love their pads, compound and polish, etc etc etc etc I have never used just premier as a standalone but I will say that IGL makes top notch products that are well worth the money. I am turning into a total fan boy, but I swear I'm not easily impressed haha Price is no object for me when it comes to choosing what I use in my business. I only use premium products as a result I charge a premium price. I would never put anything on a customer's car unless I truly believe it is top notch

I was going to try Premier but ended up with Megs HCD (basically bead booster diluted 3:1).
