I *think* I do too, but I'm never quite sure if it actually looks different or my brain is coming up with something to make me feel better about the money spent on a product and the time/effort to...
I never had it worsen the water behavior either when I used it on CQUK 3.0, but that shouldn't make any difference. In fact, I never noticed any change in water behavior at all before/after...
It's only in the Spring. Our yard has this bluegrass/fescue stuff that goes nuts when it's cool and wet. Several years ago when we'd get rain 2~3 a week in the spring I'd be mowing every four day...
I've had to cut mine a couple times by now. In years past I'd be mowing every four days or so, but it's been so dry here this winter and spring I only have to worry about it every 7~8.
Griots Garage Wheel Cleaner (the green one) is a really mild wheel cleaner and does a great job on that sticky BMW brake dust. When I owned a 435 MSport, it easily cleaned up the wheels.
I think any boosting ability is seen towards the end of a coating's life. I've used Carpro Elixr, ECH2O, Gyeon Cure and Ceramic Detailer, and now Armour Detail Amplify. On a fresh coating I could...
The Wolfgang SiO2 Paint Sealant is very runny/thin. It will separate but a few good shakes will mix it all together. The consistency doesn't seem to affect performance or ease of application.
You don't hear about it much any more, but I remember as a kid there would be mention of "acid rain" and its damage fairly frequently after a rainfall when the air quality was bad. This is probably...
What kind of wheels are you seeing chipping? If you are talking about diamond etched wheels with a clear-coat, I whole heartedly agree (the other thread you started on a similar topic). If it you...
What dilution gives you streaking with ECH2O? I never experienced anything like that and I typically use a 1:20 or maybe a little thinner dilution as a quick detailer.
I use 2~3oz of Hyperwash in a 5 gallon bucket and it works great for me. I have a pump dispenser attached to the jug and one 1 to 1.5 presses on the pump, so it makes it easy to work with.
The history of some of these products is interesting. I never used the original Optimum coatings, but I did use the original Blackfire Coating and the second gen McKee's coatings. Neither came in a...
I've used the term for any of the coatings that come in a little glass bottle in order to distinguish them from the myriad of other products on the market calling themselves a "coating". I couldn't...
Can you get Maguire's Hyperwash in Australia? After trying some from your list here in addition to Sonax Car Wash Shampoo and Poorboys World Super Slick and Suds, it my...
I would have to say moving to high solids ceramic coatings was the game changer for me. I went from having to do an in-depth detail (i.e. something requiring an LSP application) of my cars every six...
Thanks for the review. You hit on one of the first things that kept me away this spring when I was shopping for a coating: The lack of a 30ml offering. I have one small car to do and it will...
It's about $50 more than a Griots G21. Would be interesting to see them compared. Nothing really stands out looking at it other than the fact it looks a lot like the Harbor Freight short throw...
