    Prima line review

    Prima line review-photo0019-jpg

    wanted to try a different line. so PRIMA won.

    AMIGO: wanted to clean and prep the paint to ready it for HYDRO SEAL. grey in color. like toothpaste. applied by hand with a white CS pad. no drama or issues here. removed with a MF towel. left the finish clean with mild correction of surface defects. it did deepen the color and looked great.

    HYDRO SEAL: this i really wanted to try. armed myself with a spray bottle of water, two MF towels and HYDRO SEAL. small learning curve here. you soak one MF with water. wring it out till damp. mist the panel with water. put about a quarter size dollop of HYDRO SEAL on the MF and work it in. spread it on the panel till it flashes then wipe off any remaining residue with the other MF. continue on. all glass and plastic can be treated too! wanted to note: really does justice to the plastic trim! BIG BONUS. wow. left a slick deep shine. paint really looked like glass. if you get some streaking, no worries. just mist the panel with water again and wipe. the look is somewhere between a carnuba wax and sealant. really stunning. a really different and easy way to apply a sealant.

    HYDRO: WAX AS U DRY SPRAY. i can see why users of this rated it #1. i used it dry with MF towel. mist the panel and wipe off. easy. i wanted to try it and by doing so insured the xterra was covered with HYDRO. amazing look. again like glass. and it was noted after some curing time it even looks better! checked it this morning, and indeed the shine deepened if thats possible!

    nice part about this 3-step is once you use AMIGO then HYDRO SEAL your good to go. you can maintain with the HYDRO spray as needed. (checked with NICK of PRIMA on this).

    the bottles, sprayer and smell of the PRIMA products were outstanding. and no MF were harmed in this detail. washed clean with MF cleaner.

    so there you have it. PRIMA. different, easy to use and great results.

    DURABILITY: nick stated anywhere from 6-8 months.

    Good review. I had similar results on our white Toyota.

    Prima has some great products that work amazingly well. Hydro Seal and Amigo are two of their products I've personally used and WOW is a great way to describe them....

    Are you interested in Infinity? I'm testing it now and so far its very good. It's a polymer type dressing, like Adam's VRT. I have both Infinity and Nero and am doing some comparisons. So far, Infinity is much better, its a lot like Adam's VRT, only less dollars. It beads water well and lasts a long time (so far). I'm waiting until it starts to fade to post
    my review.



    I'm a big Prima fan as well



    It's funny, I think we both used Amigo for the first time on the same day. Just curious, why did you choose to apply it by hand?

    I've only used hydro. It was really good. Price is the only thing holding me back from buying it again. Maybe when the next 20% off special is offered I'll buy it.

    Yes Infinity is real good. One of the top dressings out there. The Nero is OK, but not as durable and doesn't bead water.
