It appears they blew out the stock they had, and either haven't re-ordered it, or are not going to carry it again :( You can still order it directly from Nanoskin if you'd like. That is what I am doing.

I tried getting a picture of the scratch, and took a wire brush to it, but it looked identical across the hood. I can tell you that it is a much harder coating once cured. I kept the applicators, and it is a night and day difference between Mega Trend and the other coatings. the only coating...

Here is a video of before the wash. The car hadn't been washed in ~ 2 weeks. It actually appears that the water properties were a little better BEFORE the wash and decon. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G3QJRY1eoYg

UV protection, I'm not sure, as I'll have to figure out a way to test that. Scratch resistance, I think is mostly a gimmick with coatings, at least in real world use, BUT I did run a screwdriver across the hood lightly, and did see some difference between the coatings. It definitely scratched...

Glad you liked it Derek! I'll keep updating this until it starts to wear away.

Alright, so an update. I added another coating in to the mix, and that is IGreenLover Quartz. I put it in the center of the hood, and separated Mega Trend, and CQUK. I have been washing, since the last update with Ultima WW+ as a waterless, and ONR as a Rinseless, when needed, but yesterday, I...

I have switched back to foam pads, and still break out the microbuff pads once in a while, like tonight. I am doing a correction on a 2011 Cadillac CTS in black, and I could not find an aggressive enough compounding combo so I dug out the Microbuff cutting pads, and FG400, and it worked pretty...

DUB works great on paint. This is on a 2003 Mercury Grand Marquis. I'm fairly certain it had never had a fallout remover used on it, and I had this on hand, so I tried it.

Were you able to find it?

You can get samples off the Car-ProUS website. I'd send you some for a couple bucks plus shipping if you cant find them there. PM me if you can't find it. It is an awesome soap.

I guess since nobody posted, you could keep it, or pass it to one of the guys who posted the first time around. Guess this thread flamed out about as quick as it started. sad.

Yup, probably a good idea to wear a mask.

wow, that sucks. before I started detailing, I did tires right out of high school, and admittedly, I thought I was doing it right, and all we had were the "steel wheel" machines. I didn't know there was anything else, and I never looked close enough to see if I ever did any damage. I never had...

Nice, still plenty for the next person. It how's a long way. I wasn't kidding about the super strong smell though

Very nice! glad you liked it, and glad you got good results. Don't wash it with soap for 7 days, you'l continue to notice that it changes slickness in that week. How much did you use on the whole car?
