    Honestly, I thought Powerlock and Wolfgang WGDGPS 3.0 were virtually almost the same product! A slight difference in Color, WGDGPS being a bright yellow, and if memory serves me correctly, Menzerna Powerlock was a sort of pale Lime Green.

    They both may be formulated out of the same manufacturing Plant.

    Both smelled about the same, same consistency, both worked very similar in basically all regards, but oddly, I still gave the nod to Wolfgang.
    They practically are in terms of results and behavior on paint. They are a crowd pleaser for sure.

    •IMO:
    -The “prep” is what will bring out the
    brilliancy of Red paint-systems.

    -Afterwards, the finishing product/LSP can
    be used as an enhancement of the prep
    (as well as for paint protection).

    -You’ll find all you need to complete the
    aforementioned in the following easy to
    understand, easy to use kit:
    Mothers Ultimate Wax System includes Mothers California Gold Carnauba Waxes, Sealer Glaze & Mothers Pre-Wax Cleaner.

    Hows this work on black cars? I have YET to find a long lasting, easy to get off, plastic friendly, that DOES NOT STREAK. Am I asking to much?

    This one is great on any color, but really pops exceptionally on darker colors. Not sure if you like such, as some don't, but this product gives very hard crisp and sharp reflections, dripping wet candy apple like high gloss.

    WGDGPS is in place of a carnuba wax? You would not do both? My thought is wash, clay, Megs Ultimate Compound, then finish with WGDGPS and be done

    Replying rather late to this but: It is all in the prep. I do a two step with fast correcting cream followed by perfecting cream. I then use the griots garage finishing sealant and top it with either s100 or beadmaker. It will really just POP. I have a 05' Yukon XL in sport red. Beautiful car when she's clean. Also, poorboys makes a red wax that looks great as a topper over the sealant as well. Cheers
