Review & How-To: Black Label Diamond Paint Coating

[Nick McKees37]

Thanks for the review!

Would another dedicated car wash like CG Maxi Suds have any detrimental effect on the shine or durability of PBL coatings?

And what is the advantage of using PBL shampoo?

Finally, can PBL shampoo be used in a foam gun?

No negative effect, but the Diamond Coating Shampoo is designed to rejuvenate the beading/sheeting of the surface.

Diamond Coating Shampoo can be used in a foam gun as well.

That is a great looking truck. The Black Label Paint Coating appears to be a great product. Would like to know if it will work when the temp is say 40 degrees. ?? I do not have a garage.Thanks in advance.

Preferably above 60 degrees.

Bob,

Diamond Coating Shampoo is designed to be used in the traditional wash style - hose and bucket.
You can wash a coated vehicle with a high quality rinseless wash, like ONR, DP Rinseless Wash & Gloss, etc.

Nick,

My concern was staying synergistically within the Pinnacle BL-Family of products.
Your reply has completely assuaged that concern.

Thanks!

Synergistic chemical compatibility is more important for prepping the surface. You can use any shampoo or detail spray you'd like on a Diamond coating, but what's going to work best is Diamond Coating Shampoo.

As far as a QD, is there one in the works, or a suggested QD? Perhaps something like Reload would be a good "top up?"

RELOAD works well; I've also had great success with Optimum Instant Detailer & Gloss Enhancer, Pinnacle Crystal Mist, DP Final Gloss, and Poorboy's Spray & Wipe.
