All good points. Blackfire SiO2 was my stepping off the 845 train point and worked quite well. No doubt Can Coat better. Going to try my favorite brand and see if they have come up with something special...like 845 was forever! Their was nothing like Collinite 845 Insulator wax on the...

There is no perfection. There is a diffeence between doing the traditional annual detailing v the crowd here of multi coated 1,2,3 days preps, corrections , ....bla bla bla. I used 845 for years because it got the job done better than any product out there. I have converted because these...

Just bought the Bead Coat. IMHO, Collinite 845 was the gold standard of durability for 25-30years. He even recanted his opening statements a bit. When you make top shelf, its hard to reach higher. They took their time developing their product. More than a year durability to me doesn't mean...

Doing some research. Collinite was my go to for 20++++years. The new Ceramic Beadcoat sure has my attention!!!

You will never get a straight answer out of him if he is making money from it....................

A little background. 1. I was slow to convert because I was a Collinite Insulator Wax guy for 20+ yrs 2. Tried Blackfire SiO2 spray first. No complaints. Pretty damn easy . Spring and fall was great esp on a winter vehicle that needed spring correction. It was competitive with the 845. 3...

Surprised no one made this suggestion to Danube. You and I both come from a similar detailing background. Collinite 845 fans. The art of that material was LESS is MORE!!! I made note in another thread my slow climb into the SiO2 world. 1. Blackfire SiO2 2. Griots 3 in 1. 3. now Gyeon Can Coat...

Thanks for the cander folks. Looks like I will try some Mohs in the near future as I love slick finish and they all look amazing. What is the shelf life on these products once opened? Not what one feels, but experiences with a product past its prime from experience. My Blackfire siO2 spray is...

So it seems like if going upscale, go Mohs cuz its better than One but no more difficult............thanks for the percentages info..............and yes, I started with the Blackfire spray. Won't bother again except to use up on the track car. 1 qt of that stuff lasts forvever...............my...

You have made me a believer...in the just detailed beauty! Great stuff and my go to for my track cars. I would call my experience with Gyeon Can Coat Evo a definitive upgrade though. That stuff is awesome and ridiculously easy. I did do the spring correction on all the Blackfire cars last...

Understood, I have visited the Gyeon website. Any major advantages in the Gyeon line ? Example of scenarios. 1. My 4C is a gem, but sees track duty and with all its PPF, I see little advantage to going crazy when I'm not treating paint. Currently Can Coat 2. My Quad is pretty damn cherry...

Ok, this long time Collinite 845 user entered with 21st century over the past 2 years. I started with Blackfire SiO2 spray....love the stuff and so easy. Gives me that winter/summer biannual level of protection I have always wanted. New England winters require spring correction and a fresh...

Shine coutesy of Gyeon Can Coat Evo! Is it really that easy!!!!!!?????I give with this forums pic upload system. It sucks

72 in Florida...in your house? Outside that would be a chronic dewpoint number

No, and now having used both Gyeon Can Coat Evo and the Griots ceramic 3 in 1, there is no comparison. The Gyeon is a VASTLY superior product with the same effort required to apply. I did a have water spotting issue with it one time but that came off with the following wash. I had washed car...
