PBL Paint sealant

[Fredr500]

Right after I purchased my Molten Lava (reddish) 2017 Honda CR-V Touring for my wife I clay barred it and applied PBL Paint Sealant, Window sealant and wheel sealant from the Autogeek kit. It was much easier to apply than I expected although it took a lot of steps (wash, clay, wash, polish, seal, gloss) but in the end it was worth it. The car

I then took the CR-V on a 2500 mile road trip. My trusty nav system made 20 miles of that on a dusty gravel road, at the end I couldn't see out my back window. This was about at the halfway mark. But with the PBL window treatment the window cleared after 1 application of the washer and 2 sweeps of the wiper. I was impressed and encouraged.


When I got home I washed it with the wash in the PBL sealant maintenance kit. Hosing it off made it look like new, 90% of the bugs on the front came off with the hose. The rest came off with just the wash mitt and very little pressure. I used the 2 bucket system to wash the car and at the end I could see the bottom of the rinse bucket and the wash bucket looked as clean as when I started. The car was shining like new but I put applied the detailer as well.


If it lasts the 2 years they promise I'll be really happy with this product and never mess with wax again. So far I am really impressed. Thanks Pinnacle.

In case I wasn't clear, I applied this: Pinnacle Black Label Diamond Coating Elite Kit

And I used the wash, mitt and detailer from this: Pinnacle Black Label Diamond Coating Maintenance Kit. I haven't applied the booster yet.

Just be careful where you store the surface cleansing polish. If it gets to hot it will separate and be ruined.

Congrats on the application!

I think I would check it out after one year honestly, there's so many variables involved in longevity. Post some pics when you get a chance.

I'm not sure how to load pictures here, but there are a few here at post #55: My favorite waxes/sealants - Page 6

But really, what are pics here supposed to show? It is a shiny red car.

Thanks Fightnews. I didn't know that, will move from garage to basement (all of my Autogeek boxes).

You know Fred, you are right, except if you take some close shots when the sun is overhead, it will show the clarity of the paint.
