    FINALLY - Looking into Ceramic Coatings!

    The original Syncro (Skin) was silicone-based and totally awesome as far as slickness and water behavior goes...for about 2 months until it wore off. They bill the new EVO version as Skin being a 'gloss/color enhancing' topcoat...always a very subjective kind of thing I'd guess :shrug: I do...

    FINALLY - Looking into Ceramic Coatings!

    Generally it's best to do all layers within 24hrs (barring mfg recommendation of doing something else). Back in 2017 I did 2 layers of 22ple HPC within 24hrs and then did a 3rd (too much is never enough, right?) 24hrs after that. Left a haze. A lot of it I'm told is that the bonding after 24hrs...

    What's in your daily MF rotation

    'COO' = Country of origin? If so: Hayabusa drying towels = PRC Kamiwaza = Korea Hayabusa Super Black = PRC When it comes to hobbies, the line between 'want' and 'need' is often conveniently indistinguishable :laughing: Hayabusa Drying Towels are 1100 gsm for the large, 1500gsm for the Mini The...

    CERAKOTE enters the Auto Ceramic Coating Market

    First ‘real’ job at 14 was in friend’s family car wash. They used Carbon Tetrachloride as tar remover & we all carried 16oz squeeze bottles all day. Bottle empty…wander over to the open trough of Carbon Tet and submerge bottle up to your elbow to refill. Guessing modern-day OSHA would have an...

    Polish Angel Graphene

    Well, maybe time to revive this thread as the Glasscoat Cosmic Diamond Coating + Graphene Spritz vehicle (Aegean Blue Honda Civic) is down off the lift and back on the road for the next few months. Applied 2 layers of the Diamond followed by an application of the Spritz in mid-March of 2023...

    Wax better than Fuzion?

    [emoji1787] Fortunately ‘employee pricing’ & “Well, I need to actually use it if I’m gonna answer customer inquiries about it” helps to keep the credit card bills down! Next up is Kami’s Infinity Wax V2; always liked that stuff very much. I’d forgotten how much I enjoyed waxes; previously had...

    Wax better than Fuzion?

    Like most POLISHANGEL stuff, easy to use & nice looks. It’s a synthetic so a bit more longevity/durability than pure carnauba but PA for me has always been about fun, easy to use and good looks. What I thought after using it in Spring of 2020: “PolishAngel High Gloss Paste Wax For those who...

    Post Your Unpacking Pictures

    Love the #Cronos…been using it all Summer. Works very well with minimal effort on both Cayman exhaust (very sooty) and polished stainless (I think) pipes/tips of Corvette. Spray, let dwell a bit and then a quick brush w 1” boars hair brush, rinse…done! No dirty metal polishing, no grungy towels...

    Graphene Coating Attracting Dust Issues?

    What I get from all of this Graphene stuff is: 1. Current technology does not allow for any fundamentally significant level of true Graphene to be incorporated into a coating. And given anecdotal mentions of Graphene in commercial/industrial applications, incorporating true advances in the...
