    Re: Any more Essence Plus reviews?

    Hopefully Zach (ZMcGovern) @ DetailPeoria can do a review he normally does quite a few on coatings now that there is a new product and solution for repair coatings + lsp. One of the flaws preventing me from coating my car because when you want to polish something out you have to go through the coating process again. With a sealant a nice wash+clay+alcohol wipedown would get you there very quick.

    As long as it blends together, you should be ok.

    And that's why Essence Plus was formulated. Will hide some minor marring and leave behind some SIo2 for protection without removing your base coating.

    Re: Any more Essence Plus reviews?

    They are claiming more than just a little protection when they say it will last up to a year. Have you seen Essence primer and Essence Plus not last or is that just speculation? When you apply Plus on top of the primer you are technically topping a coating of sorts.
    It hasn't been out long enough to determine its longevity has it?

    I assume you are directing your questions to me. Time will tell, but I won't be one of them because I have CQuartz as a base. You can do as you want, but I would never use Essence as a coating and expect it to last a year in a high UV area.

    Re: Any more Essence Plus reviews?

    Hi Mr Rsurfer...

    Haha i agree with u, lasting a year seems like..too good to be true...
    But, can it last..lets say a month or 2months?
    I just bought this stuff and havent use it till now.
    I appreciate your inputs on this product.

    Thanks

    Re: Any more Essence Plus reviews?

    I did a review of Essence Plus on Carpro's website not long back.

    Two very nice qualities I noted and worth mentioning here, is that although a white creamy product, it left zero residues behind on black trim parts. And it worked really nice on plastics such as Head Light, and Tail Light Lenses, leaving behind a beautiful crystal clear high gloss finish, without the worry of abrasives harming a Lens UV Coating

    Re: Any more Essence Plus reviews?

    Hello Markd51,

    Recently i just purchased essence plus, im planning on using it as standalone sealant, on a naked prepped paint, my car isnt coated.
    What are ur thoughts about this product? can this thing last through months?
    Do i need to wait for this to haze before buffing off or it is a wipe on wipe off sealant?

    Thanks for the sharing...
