Review: Wolfgang Exterior Trim Sealant

[Rei86]

Where do you find the time to do this?

And with that said THANK YOU so much for these in-depth reviews for consumers that google search for reviews.

 

[kingofsorrow]

so either the uttg or the wets can be applied to the rims? wow, didn't know that.

 

[Rayaz]

As always, a first tier review. I seriously base many of my purchases on what you have to say. Thanks.

Dog your killing me ... I was planning on doing a heat test for my review :nomore:

I guess we both think alike ... great test Maybe I can ramp it up and get them to fail.

Awesome Bill! Sorry about that I know yours will be top notch! I cant way to see it. I'm keeping my eye peeled.

Hmm...interesting. Sweet review of course buddy! Cookie sheet idea was all KB, I just passed on the info .

Thanks for passing the idea on buddy! Originally. Just iced it because I didn't have any metal available easily but when I thought of the heat test it really came in handy.

Thank yo so much! My pleasure

Absolutely, its all I've used on the Sky rims for the past year. I'm curious how it comes out on glossy black painted rims though... Never tried that. I tell you, I've leaked wheel cleaner onto my wheels while cleaning only the tires and the leak of wheel cleaner didn't touch the UTTG sealant I had in place. The stuff is tough as nails!

As always, a first tier review. I seriously base many of my purchases on what you have to say. Thanks.

Thank you so much!!! That really means as much as anything possibly could. I hope I don't let you down often.
Cheers,
Corey

Update 2 - Durability: Wolfgang Exterior Trim Sealant

It was a very rainy week and rained for a good portion of at least 2 days with the test areas receiving afternoon showers on a couple other days as well. In total I believe it received rain 4 of the 7 days this week. Both vehicles were exposed to rain and road spray at highway speeds on more than one occasion. I’m happy with the results so far. I expected the durability not to have any issues in just a week on normal surfaces but didn’t know what would come of adding it on top of the C4 so I’m specifically excited about the fact the products didn’t wash off of the C4 area. I’ll let you judge the comparisons for yourself.

 

[Dr Oldz]

Thanks for the update. Seems to be performing well!

Corey,

UTTG seems to be significantly darker?

Thanks Jim!

Corey,

UTTG seems to be significantly darker?

I have to admit you are correct. On the C4 the UTTG seems to have bonded or become better friends than the ETS did. On the normal surfaces the UTTG is also darker but not significantly.

 

[Ted S.]

hmmm, they look way different on the C4 after a week. Perhaps the chemical make-up is way different as well?

Cee Dog,

Fantastic write up!!! Really showed its true capabilities! Just purchased a 4oz ETS on the BOGO deal and can't wait to lock in that trim shine!!

 

[James K]

The UTTG def looks darker.

NOTE TO ALL: One week update is on post 45... here http://www.autogeekonline.net/forum...-review-wolfgang-exterior-trim-sealant-5.html

I think the chemical makeup is just slightly different but a slight difference in makeup can make a big difference in the real world. I am going to do the test over C4 on another car and see if this is duplicated.

Thank you!! Good luck :dblthumb2:

Update 3 - Durability: Wolfgang Exterior Trim Sealant

(2 week update)

It was a not a very rainy week but it rained a bit until yesterday when we had heavy storms for a good portion of the day and night.

I’m happy to report the products are still showing on the C4 area.

Both vehicles were driven hundreds of miles.

THIS IS THE SIDE OF THE TIRE WE HAVE FOCUSED ON PREVIOUSLY

DUE TO IT BEING AGAINST THE GROUND AND HAVING DIRT ALL OVER IT I SWITCHED TO THE OTHER SIDE OF THE TIRE FOR THE REST OF THE PICTURES

 

[CEE DOG]

Bump for 2 week update (see above)

Bump for 2 week update (see above)

Thanks Corey. It seems like you are seeing the same thing with UTTG/ETS on tires that I am ... they are starting to take almost a slight yellow hue. I am about due for my tire comparison, and I just drove through the rain to work toady, so I will try to get some of my comparison pictures up.

Over C4 I think the UTTG looks darker in your pictures.

On your water softener lid, they look to be equal at this point.

Update 3 - Durability: Wolfgang Exterior Trim Sealant

(3 weeks since application)

It rained twice this week. Again, vehicles are kept outside 24/7.

Proof the 450+ temps didn't remove the sealants

Maybe it's just me, but on the earlier picture of the two over C4, ETS seemed a little lighter in color the UTTG, but the pics today seem to look similar. Is the UTTG fading a bit more over time, or is the ETS just getting darker?

I think it has a lot to do with the lighting.

Update: 1 Month

After 1 month, a good amount of rainstorms, and a lot of miles both trim products are holding up well (as expected).

Heres are the pictures:

On Tire

On textured Bumper Trim over C4

On Smooth Plastic

 

[Rei86]

Looks good Corey:xyxthumbs:

Thanks for the update and IMO they both look like they are going strong. I hope WETS (clever abbreviation PBMG) can hold up for 6months.
