For a true finish wax without cleaners that would clean off the sealant I suggest Max Wax. A very nice finish wax. DP Max Wax- Made with pure carnauba wax and advanced polymers.
I knew someone would say that! Didn't take any and hit the road tomorrow for a 250 mile trip ... So if I can get a decent pic it will probably have some imbedded bugs!:hungry:
Gave the truck a coat of BFAFPP today, just had to stop by and remind everyone how awesome this stuff is, easy on easier off and a deep wet look. I haven't reached for this in quite a while and today I was wondering why .... :buffing: :props:
I'd think the new Blackfire ALL-IN-ONE Trim and Tire would be perfect for this! Maybe MARC 08 can chime in here with a quick test and review how it works.
Your review made me place some in my cart today. I was a little short of the $150 to get free shipping, this little write up did the trick and put me over the top! ... Thanks:props: ..... :dblthumb2: going to try it on my tonneau cover ... Wonder what the durability will be like? :xyxthumbs:
In humid climates good luck working with FK1000P .... Totally hate the stuff .., strictly my opinion but it has to be the hardest thing in the world to get off even applying very thin with a machine. Durability and look when it's done meh! :dunno: the WGDPGS is a much better product all around...
You can't go wrong with Duragloss 105 IMO. It's an AIO but so will any cleaner wax be. The amount of polish you get depends on how much you work it. A simple RO application and buff off will give great results.
Also as stated above DP Poli-seal is a good choice but I feel the 105 hides a little...

I think it comes down to preference and what you get used to. I think the Meguiars has more correction capability but that said I absolutely really like the Wolfgang combo and pretty much use it all the time. I pair it with the LC hydro-tech pads and IMO it's a hard to beat Combo that is very...
You need to get a 5" backing plate and 5.5" pads. If it were me I'd use the Optimum polishes with the lake country Hydro Tech pads. They are much more forgiving than the Meguires polishes IMO.
I also really like the WolfGang duo polishes. They finish awesome! The only thing is they are not...
About 6 to 8 hrs for an average car.
You used only 1 - 4" pad for your entire hood? How often did you clean it? Also with some of your other statements I'm going to say you used to much product. To much product creates heat and does this to pads. Less product, cleaning pads more often and have...
