Although it’s been reformulated, I still don’t like reload, but I do like elixir which is partially reload… Works great.

I applied mine six months ago completely outside on a semi sunny day and it still looks great today. My process was: -Completely wipe down the scooter with 50-50 IPA, It didn’t need any type of polish. -Wiped on the can coat with a microfiber brick, Spraying Cancoat into the brick, 1 inch from...

Carpro if you are addicted to detailing ..for the average weekend detailer I think Megs….

Why mix your own? Because I can decide the volume that I want to mix, and most of us owned ech20 already, so It was just a matter of buying a small amount of reload and making distilled water. By the way if you use a lot of distilled water, which I do , for Detailing, cooking and my CPAP...

Yeah you can move them inside a bit, the problem is the design of your wheels allows you to see straight through and if you hide them behind one of the spokes, it will throw off the balance., your other alternative is to get some rustoleum paint and an artist paintbrush and paint them black.

I’ve used elixir on a dark anthracite car, a red car, and a Subaru blue car with no darkening affect… I love the stuff….. it’s a perfect middle ground between a detailer and sealant.

Obviously no polishing,but any of the rinseless and spray sealants are fine.

Every wash I do, whether it be rinseless or bucket o’ suds, has some level of protection in the product. Therefore I don’t wanna degrade that with some APC splash…

I’m good for probably 6-8 weeks down here in Florida -car garaged, air-conditioned, and hardly ever driven in the rain… So I think my conditions are optimum

I’m retired too, and several years ago I went through my detailing addiction where I was putting multiple coats of everything on the car and then suddenly I realized it was ridiculous. I suggest: 1. wash the car and polish it once a year with whatever you want 2. apply sealant every 6 to 8...

4 hours? I think you’re fine……..

Also sold in the marine industry as woody wax…..

I use it every couple months, in between I do a rinseless on them. I have Carpro Hydr02, gyeon wet coat, and BF hydroseal on the shelf, I use them interchangeably and don’t find any difference between them. They all work well. I Spray on, hard hose off….dry with leaf blower….

John shouldn’t they do much of the prep 4 u? Have you inquired as to what their procedure is?

I mix my elixir like this, it works great , no streaking, gives you great gloss….. 4oz/4oz ECH20/Reload and 56 oz of distilled water I use it on a clean dry surface after washing, with a microfiber brick applicator and then a microfiber towel Buff off……

Another vote for elixr…best of both products….

I had a spoiler repainted about two years ago, and the last words from the body shop guy as I left the door was “we baked it so you can do whatever you want to it right away“… And that was true, I polished it with no problems a half hour later. But the safe play is to wait 60 days, just...

This happens when you develop your Detailing addiction to a fine point… We’ve all been there… Pick a good polish and sealant, and call it a day.

The best PPF is to buy from a manufacturer that makes a pattern. This makes it much easier for the installer to do it correctly. Xpel is about the best at this, they have patterns virtually every car. see their website.
