I had lots of overspray from using Mckees 37. I wouldn't be surprised if the particles drifted over and onto the paint even if you didn't spray the paint directly. I didn't notice when I was applying it but definitely noticed it the next day as it dried/cured.

Yep same here. I've used a few coatings (currently mckees 37 v2) and that's always the case for me as well. You can get it 'clean' but it's still contaminated and has a film that builds over the course of a long winter. Tar X and a light clay help significantly. But even still theres gunk on the...

Based on the description it appears to be just a trim protectant. I didn't see any mention of cleaning abilities. If that's the case then it's not similar to the old BF AIO Trim & Tire. Although maybe you were referencing a trim sealant they used to make that I'm forgetting.

Been using it for a couple years. Great cleaning and water repellant. And just fine over a glass coating.

Hmm. Very interesting sounding product. But color me skeptical that a spray on liquid can prevent rock chips. I'm guessing this is similar to a sealant?

I use the Boss 3" backing plate and pads on my GG 6" DA polisher. I find that it gives a lot more cut than the 5" pads. I have a black MB with rock hard paint and I find 3" pads (MF pads) cut way quicker than the 5" pads. Depending on how serious your defects are they may or may not get them...

I feel your pain. I found v2 to be a PITA to apply.

Looks to me like he burned through the clearcoat

Agreed. I'd probably use Pinnacle Crystal Mist Detail Spray as my QD in that case. And then use Souveran Liquid Spray Wax every couple weeks to maintain that original look. Reload may work but it'll change the look. I'd also check for streaking before I did the whole car.

I use Carpro DLUX on wiper arms and cowls (as well as on the trim and wheels) of our cars. Never had an issue and lasts many months.

Well, some people spend that much chasing the newest wax/sealant/coating trying to find the 'shiniest' one on the planet. I'd never buy one but I could see it being useful for a manufacturer or detailer trying to provide objective claims.

If it were me, I'd just get the 2 pack of small GG PFM towels. If you are using it for your 'clean up' towel, you honestly could do an entire car with just one of these 16 x 16 towels. Then hang it to dry and re-use later. It is a little pricey at $23 for 2, but if you wait until they are on...

You are referring to diminishing abrasives or 'DAT'. The Menzerna line uses DAT abrasives. Mike or others can chime in with a lot more detail.

Agreed. Menz. is very oily. I'd go over it with some kind of wipe down (Eraser, etc.) after polishing.

I'd be surprised if there was a difference. Both claim to be the 'finest' polishes providing maximum clarity in their respective lineups. I would expect the abrasives in the Pinnacle Jeweling Wax to be similar unless they went out and created something brand new.
