I agree and used this approach last year, but I found 3D One didn't correct or finish as well as Sonax Perfect Finish and left more oil residue on the pad and paint. I also preferred the Rupes yellow...
Well then I'll have to add Sonax S+S to my testing. I'm going to leave the rocker panels bare for toppers only. Will probably start with what I have--BSD, IGL Premier, Kamikaze Over Coat--and then...
I asked about the cure time because some of these products don't tell you how long and recommendations on forums vary quite a bit. Also because I've got a lot of dust and pollen so letting cure for...
I'd love to see that pro/con post. I can agree I see more cons now, but I probably haven't thought of or experienced everything. As far as water spots, I would think that many dryer but hotter...
Thanks Rippy for the clarification. It's suprising to me that in your test FK1000P didn't do as well as 845 and that 915 was so far back from them, since the majority opinion (rarely, it seems, based...
Just about to decide what products I'll be using for the next year, and it would be so much more difficult, uncertain, and needle-in-haystack without your testing. Thank you! It helps that I'm near...

If you still have those I agree it's worth trying again, but this time frequently applying a light topper like Reload. I think I'll repolish and do half the hood with CSL and Reload and half with a...
Thanks, that makes sense to me. I just had Can Coat over CSL leave etched spots (tried all chemical removal options with no improvement) after the first drive 3 weeks after coating, topped with...
Rippy, have you noticed any of the longer lasting products that seem to do well or poorly with water spots and etching? I've had too many etching problems with coatings so I'm looking to switch to...
I agree that CSL doesn't do much for looks. I had it and Sonax PNS on adjacent newly polished black panels and there was no discernable difference in saturation or depth, maybe a slight hint more...
I just had the same thing happen to me with Can Coat applied over CSL. The bug guts were left on for no more than 12 hours. It was my first time taking the car out since the coatings were applied 3...
