Polish Angel Glasscoat Cosmic (Quick Take)

[BadgerRivFan]

Finally received my PA products and used the directions to detail a pearl white 2016 CR-V and a Blue Pearl 2016 Pilot this weekend.

Assessment on the CR-V: As mentioned by all who have used the products, application and removal could not be simpler. Used the BOSS G15 to apply the Invincible Primer to large areas and a foam applicator pad for the tight areas. Applied 2 coats of the Cosmic Angel with specified 45 minute rest between coats. Followed that up with Cosmic Spritz as directed. I'll try to get pictures later but results were very similar to the Nissan Rogue above. In direct sun, my wife commented that she had to shade her eyes against the reflection. VERY impressive results on a white car.

Assessment on the Pilot: Only one real difference here. PA has an option on their site to order the Cosmic Angel in a color specific formulation. They don't provide any information about the benefits, but I figured what the heck. Instead of a cloudy white color, the Cosmic Angel was blue. The wipeoff produced blue coloration on the microfiber.

All in all, my search for the products that will be used on my daily drivers is over. I plan to simply wash (probably Griot's Brilliant Wash) and use Cosmic Spritz as a "drying aid / coating enhancer".

As noted by others above, the amount of product used if you follow PA directions is very small. I would compare usage of the Cosmic Angel to the amount of Collinite 845 needed to coat the same car. A little goes a long way and the cost per application becomes very reasonable. I would expect the Cosmic Angel to last the life of both cars (which I plan to be a long time).

Pictures to share?

Is there a stark difference between the Glasscoat Cosmic and the Vikingcoat? I've noticed glasscoat needs the primer, but not vikingcoat. Any other differences that you might know of that separates them? They offer similar protection periods as well.

I have PA in my wishlist for when funds become available - Especially after seeing its capabilities and custmsprty's posts.

Edit: Where are my manners. Great work btw!

I *think* cosmic is "harder"

Great news!

Justin, looks great and I used PA Viking with great ease of use and results

Thank you!

Just finished up a black 2015 Escalade ESV with PA Glasscoat Cosmic.

Sorry it took so long. I must be taking pics that are too large to upload.
Here is one of the hood after 2 coats of Cosmic Angel followed by Spritz.

Great post. This stuff really intrigues me. Would anyone that's used it suggest the viking spritz or cosmic spritz for maint? Also, I'm assuming that a rinseless is fine with this, with a drying aid like UWW, and then maybe the spritz once a month?

That's pretty much what I had in mind except that I will probably use the Spritz after each waterless wash with UWW+.

hows it holding up?

The front is OK but I think I was a little too aggressive with my application in the rear.
