    Getting Ready for Spring.

    Whats shaking everyone, its been a bit! Well life is finally inline from the last time I was on, so now I got time to devote to my interests, so I am back. Over the last couple years I haven't had time to keep up with things and sad to say my car has been neglected. I did keep up with it from time to time with the basics, but hasn't been polished since 2018, just touchless washes with a couple bucket washes with spray wax a couple times a year. A couple months ago I started planning my attack, and its all going to start this coming Thursday night.

    I'll get some pictures of the daily up tomorrow morning so you folks can see what shape its currently in. But here is what I chose to go with.



    I got to remember how to post photos here, lol. Since its hard to see here is the list

    Polish Angel

    Glasscoat Cosmic Diamond
    Invincible Primer Spritz
    Glasscoat Graphene Spritz
    Supersport PTFE
    Cristal
    Rain

    Products to also be used
    Optimum Hyper Polish
    Gyeon Prep
    Gyeon Iron
    Gyeon Wheel with Iron
    Gyeon Tire
    Pinnacle Ultra Fine Clay
    LC Pads
    and some other things I can't remember right now.

    So stay tuned, its going to be a long weekend and I promise to try and remember to take as many pics as I can and will update here when I can.

    I think you’ll enjoy the new Diamond; normal Glasscoat ‘look’ doubled, smooth and alluring to the touch. Wonderful!

    So far I've really enjoyed everything PA I have used over the last few years. When I was getting ready to buy products I almost went with Cosmic as I had in the past but Diamond just came out and decided to take the gamble, from what you say I guess the gamble will pay off!

    Ever have any issues with cosmic spritz streaking? Im thinking of trying it out. Im tired of the couple products i have on the shelf streaking on black paint no matter how little i attemp to use.(gyeon cure straight or cut 1:1...doesnt matter, and 3d bead it up). If i use those two as a dring aide though i dont notice streaking. Since i do rinseless i dont use drying aides cuz i dont want that stuff in my drying towels

    FWIW I've used PA products for 5 years now. I never had a streaking problem. With PA products if you think your not using enough your probably using too much! Thats what a good man named Ron told me years ago...

    My cat could easily & successfully apply Cosmic Spritz just fine and he don't even have opposable thumbs. Entertainingly easy to use, see a smudge it just wipes right up/off even an hour later. Another handy thing about Cosmic is if you notice a 'regular' coating high spot after coating a car, Cosmic Spritz can clean it up if you catch it in time.
