I washed my car on Monday before dinner. Began at 3:35PM and finished at little after 5PM. The temp. was 44 degrees, but real feel was about 39 degrees. My fingers were numb during the drying stage. The car looked sharp for two days of good weather but today it is a mess due to snow here in central PA. Never fails to mess up a nice job.
This time, the wash product was BF Wet Diamond Conditioning Shampoo (always two bucket method). Used a AG Super Plush Micro-Chenille Wash Mitt for the wash.
Dried with a combo of electric blower and Cobra Supreme Green Guzzler Waffle Weave towels (20 x 40).
Pulled it into the garage. When inside, to the back deck, and grilled up some Thai red curry peanut sauce glazed pork tenderloin kebabs that the wife assembled (Yum! Spicy and Tender) Washed them down with Victory Headwaters Ale. Walked the dogs and then went back to the garage.
Grabbed the BLACKFIRE Wet Diamond Polymer Spray and a few Cobra Deluxe 600 microfibers.
Started on the roof and did the entire car, jams, trunk tracks, glass, etc. with the BFWDPS. Took my time about 1 hr. 20 mins.
The finish looked slick, bright, and glossy. The Satin Metal (silverish) metallic popped. the next morning it looked even better. I believe that as poly sprays cure, they reflect more light.
So, today it snows. My car was covered with snow when I pulled it into the garage. I let the snow begin to melt and took some pics.
The first image below shows some cool beading shortly after the snow melted. Notice the beads inside of the other beads! The car was winterized with Collinite Liquid Insulator Wax #845 the second week in December. After each wash I have been using some form of poly spray wax/sealant experimenting with the following:
Megs Ultimate Quik Wax
Wolfgang Deep Gloss Spritz Sealant
Pinnacle Liquid Souverän™ Spray Wax
Duragloss Aquawax #951
Optimum Car Wax Spray
Pinnacle XMT 360 Spray Wax
and today BLACKFIRE Wet Diamond Polymer Spray
As the snow melted completely the beads began to roll off the car doing what you see below. I used a pen to help show bead sizes.
As you can guess, I am quite pleased with the results of the BLACKFIRE Wet Diamond Polymer Spray. I now have so many polymer spray waxes that I need not buy another for a while, but I am eyeing up the CarPro Reload Spray Sealant.
Just thought I would share my results of this great product I bought from AG. Having a wet messy car is not my idea of fun, but with beads like this, I will get over it.
