RTexasF -> Wet Paint (5/12/2006 10:56:55 PM)
|
[I'm going to copy and paste this from another forum I participate in. I didn't place this information previously because Auto Geek was a paying sponser and I didn't think it right for me to do so. This was written roughly one year+ ago and I use the product to this day. Since I wrote this I have used the product on MANY cars and 50+ other applications. It is absolutely killer. I don't sell it but I've used it enough to answer questions intelligently so ask away. Wheelbroker, this stuff will make you grin because it's SO easy for us old farts to use and provides the look of all day with a buffer......but without the buffer.
About two weeks ago I stumbled across and ordered this:
http://www.wetpaintglaze.com/
With trepidation I applied it to my gal's dirty Corolla. It performed exactly as advertised. I put the car out in the sun and looked in vain for scratches, none to be found. The finish was indeed slick and looked wet. The glass was astounding in its clarity and reflection. WOW is all I could say.
Next I tried it on a neighbor's horridly filthy black car, complete with white water stains all over it from the Texas mineral content water. Not only did it remove the built up filth on the car but it also took care of the water spots....they were removed completely! The paint was as new including a fender that had been repainted. It was difficult to see the difference between the old and the new.
Then I tried it on a few different surfaces as described on the website......glass, mirrors, porcelain sinks, counter tops.......it worked on every one! Holy Smoke!!
No, I don't sell or represent it but I'm damn glad to have found it. I would like to represent it.
All surfaces are so slick that dirt just doesn't stick. Glass, painted surfaces (car), and others simply wipe clean or rinse off.
I am blown away by this stuff and took two weeks of trials before I wrote this tonight.
Here's my take on this stuff--
+ easy apply & removal, even with dirty (not mud caked) surfaces.
+ no scratching.
+ use el cheapo terrycloth towels, microfiber just doesn't work as well.
+ amazing slick finish even after two weeks.
+works on many surfaces.
+ glass will wipe clean with a single swipe two weeks later.
-fine spray spritzes product in areas that need to be cleaned with a detail brush. Door handle areas, crevices, etc.
- requires applicator from manufacturer but it works so well I can't really moan about it.
- If applied too heavily, which I did, dusting is apparent. It's easily taken care of with a California Duster. The best bet is to read the directions, and apply sparingly.
So far I've used this in roughly 20 different applications and I'm blown away each and every time. I wish I had found this years ago.
Is it a substitute for the buffer? No
Scratch removal? Not so hot
Can it take the place of waterless wash and quick detailer?
Yes....in spades.
Can you tell I'm blown away with this stuff?
I HIGHLY recommend.
It earned me a full detail job this coming Tues. just from the demo.
I'm ordering more!
Since I first wrote this I found out that it does remove light marring/scratches when used with a Porter Cable buffer. I have at least a grand worth of products in my detailing arsenal and this one works for 95% of the detaililing problems I encounter. It's just that good. There is no need to top it with wax, it stands out by itself and is VERY long lasting. Expect 3-6 months after two applications, preferably done one immediately behind the other.....done by hand.
