Virtually identical to Crystal seal is ultima paint guard plus. In fact, there are people that say it comes from the same factory and is the same product. I can’t guarantee that, but I would believe it.

Yup…. still have a pretty substantial amount of blackfire crystal seal left, along with a full bottle of Ultima paint guard plus… Love those two products.

I personally don’t think magic eraser should be anywhere near a car. It is the equivalent of 3600 grit sandpaper… Plenty of other things that are not abrasive, especially if you “scrub“ with it.

I agree With Nate, are you going to do it Just because you want to do it , or does it look like the car really needs it? I use the wife test, before I do something I ask my wife if the car still looks good, I can’t tell you how many times I’ve stopped doing something because I realized it was...

I like this stuff, it also works well if you have any plastidip surfaces on your vehicles…

Mine going on 3 years,many cups daily, no problems …..

I think the Gyeon bottle is complete crap , considering that it contains an expensive product that is crystalline susceptible. I dumped the bottle, and moved it all to a glass mason jar that hermetically seals, and then put it all in a Ziploc. So far eight months in, it’s still perfect. I use a...

Don’t overthink this, any solid microfiber towel will work fine.

I stop ruining towels with spray coatings by using a microfiber brick, it works just as well, and then the after wipe with a normal microfiber doesn’t harm the towel. The plastic layer bricks that are above somewhere are the hot ticket. On a slightly different subject, I really wish the...

That’s not a simple question to answer… If your surface is clean, and it’s a relatively new car where the surface is smooth, you could just use 50-50 isopropyl alcohol and water for a good wipe down and it would be ready. If it’s a surface that is older, has some scratches and is fairly well...

I have had my CanCoat in the original bottle for about 14 months, it’s still looks fine, and works fine. However, the top was getting a little crusty and rough to open, so I transferred it to an a hermetically sealed mason type glass jar. The original bottle is pretty cheap, imo, with bad...

I’ve been using a touchless local wash for about eight years, and never had a scratch any surface. I usually just get the rinse and then wipe it down with Ech20 when I get home, easy Peezy , car still looks brand new.

The one bucket method is the Gary Dean rinseless wash method… Find it on YouTube…. I’ve been doing it for 12 years, never scratched a car yet. and 20 microfibers is ridiculous, I can do my car with five.

I’m sure this is sacrilegious to some, but the older I get, (73) the easier I need things to be. Last week I did my brand new BMW 228i GranCoupe with CanCoat. The paint was in great shape being new, (after I ran the baggy test), so all I did was spray and wipe down each panel with 50-50 IPA, and...

Back to the coatings, I like the TW stuff….Been using it for about a year, being garaged in Florida. It lasts a long, long time for me.
