I still can't believe I bought the AIO sealant 2 days before they announce the 3 in 1 version .
I have not even broke the seal on it and will never use it...

Call them and let em' know the situation, I wouldn't be surprised they work with you...or you could be Santa and gift to a fellow forum memberI played Santa this year, it's a great feeling to pay it forward as a number of people have done nice things for me here

On their last live stream, they said they're having difficultly in procuring one of the ingredients for it. They didn't give an expected date.

I was going to post this...lol

no change on the Ceramic AIO. sounds like it has not started production due to the ingredient delay.

I just bought my first Griot's products. Hopefully this will fix some paint flaws that I have.

Their tar & sap remover (spray bottle) is now available on the website. They did mention that they freeze/thaw test their products in case they would freeze in transit. I thought that was good to know in case you did have something freeze on you. They talked about iron & fallout remover and surface prep a lot. They also said they would talk about some non Griot's products for salt removal and undercarriage cleaning but then never really did that.

Hey guys, planning my spring detail already and I'm wanting to try out the BOSS creams. Planning to polish the whole car since I will have some swirling due to experimenting with different winter rinseless/waterless wash methods (some that have produced light swirls/marring). I'm wondering if you Griot's fans think that Perfecting Cream would be enough to take care of those, or if I should step up to Correcting Cream. I really don't think that I'll need to use Fast Correcting Cream. My car is black and has soft clear, so I'm thinking the Perfecting Cream would be enough to take care of these washing induced swirl marks/spiderwebs. I also understand that the Correcting Cream finishes out great, LSP ready. However, if I would like to avoid using CC if all I need is PC since I plan to keep this car for a while and want to take as little bit of clear off as possible. I will be using an 7242XP with 5" LC pads (I have yellow, orange, white, and black available). I don't yet own any of the BOSS creams and want to avoid buying more kinds than I need. What are your thoughts? Thanks!

you can finish down CC like a mirror...chances are really good, you can do it ALL with this one step...(orange ) pads...

You wouldnt be concerned with it removing too much clear for using it 1-2 times per year?

 

[Bosko]

why would you use it twice a year...even once a year is a lot
If you maintain your paint correctly during washes, the paint stays in great shape for a long time..

Everyone always says this. But it's inevitable that after daily driving my car for 6-12 months it's going to need some exfoliation and swirls taken out. I know I'm making my life more difficult by daily driving a black car with soft clear, but it is what it is, and the paint just doesn't stay in tip-top shape for 12+ months at a time.
