I'm a lot more impressed that you have a Maserati as a daily driver and are still willing to put in 15 hours of work into it. Most people in your position would have paid someone to do that and sat...
I was thinking of getting the cordless Makita myself! :) How do you rate it's use on one charge? Is it light enough for easy use around the vehicle? Thanks!!!
I have and use both. I find that Opti-Clean cleans off dirt films better and is slightly better for removing stuff like bird droppings, but is harder to buff off streak free. UWW+ leaves a slicker,...
It's not just the Liquid Souveran that separates, but the WG Deep Gloss Sealant too =) My approach has been to shake the product in a 3/4 to 1/2 full bottle to aerate the liquid and give it a nice...
I think I'm far more likely to use it on a clean car as a post-wash spray sealant; I tend to use UWW+ as my QD/WW since it cleans better and still leaves a decent gloss behind.
Just wanted to leave my impressions on CG's Hybrid V7 spray sealant/detailer. Didn't have time for pics as I was doing this at night with sub-standard lighting at my parking structure. As product...
Traditional washes are still my preferred choice for heavy cleaning (i.e. lots of dirt or road grime build up), or when I need to strip the surface using harsher chemical cleaners.
Not to be obtuse, but the high end wax vs low end, process vs product wax debate is similar to many other debates on a variety of topics the world over. I like to suggest some similar questions =)

Big fan of the Liquid Souveran. Feels just as slick as WG DGPS and has a slightly greater depth IMO. Durability and price doesn't impress though; lots of competing products out there with similar...
If your car is regularly waxed and maintained, most of the ONR will run off the vehicle in the process of cleaning from the hydrophobic effect of waxes/sealants. If the car is not well maintained and...
And then after you use it you'll realize what a total pain it is to apply and buff off. I have a tub of authentic premium myself, and haven't touched it in 2 years.
Actually it doesn't sound all that crazy from a manufacturer's perspective. If someone overseas has an exclusive distribution agreement, but the manufacturer offers much cheaper prices even after...
I don't speak for AG, but I respectfully submit that you are being too hard on AG as a retailer. AG sells loose/individual items of varying shapes, sizes and weights that are combined into a box....
As an international customer, I would really welcome surface shipping, which is an option under USPS and some freight companies. It might take 2 months or so, but I can ship gallon-sized shipments...
I have a tub of Soft99's Authentic Premium (the premium product in the Authentic wax line now I believe) sitting in my cupboard. It's a magenta tub and I'll try to get a shot up.
