For the first time I used undercarriage spray on the frame rails and exposed suspension parts of my truck. I was dubious but initial reaction is that it looks real nice. It returned everything to a dark, flat black. I don't know what to expect for longevity but I'm happy for now.

We live in the mountains. We're not going to see crushing temperatures like say Michigan or Sweden, but will flirt with 20F from time-to-time.

As I recall, HydrO2 and Bead Maker are especially vulnerable to freezing. I don't have space to store every chemical inside so I want to prioritize. I'm thinking some of them can spend the winter in the garage refrigerator at 40 degrees F instead of risking damage. What other chemicals are...

Speaking of Youtubers, is this Jim Wight in this photo in Mike Phillip's book (page 88)?

I have this on my vehicle as well. I'm thinking about applying PPF to these little panels after correction.

I would have to think about using it on rubber seals. I'm not familiar with this product but would be cautious about leaving a film on the painted metal bits the seals contact. I've been using 303 rubber seal protectant which is water-based (actually pretty runny) which is designed...

The bottle says something like "mix up to 2 ounces to 3-5 gallons of water" which isn't super precise to begin with.

I do think Uber has issues with being in the sun. I had blotches after using it this weekend, which cleared up with some APC. They weren't as bad as yours, though. McKees 37 SiO2 wash is what I'm going back to, it works fine in the sun.

PNS requires a lot of elbow grease. I wouldn't suggest it in this case.

Yeah I'm curious how the cost of this is different than CR Spotless filters.

Two things come to mind: 1) the ceramic will shed the outer layers pretty quickly, 2) the ceramic is a superior surface than any sealant or wax. They are wasting their time, IMHO.

I'm thinking wheel cleaner and a drill brush, follow up with some trim sealant to get the hydrophobicity and gloss.

This morning I tried the Wolfgang Uber SiO2 wash and it left soap scum all over my truck. I guess I'll try it again another day, but so far I'm not sure what the fuss is all about. McKees 37 SiO2 wash works perfectly, I should just stick to that.

Wait, what is going on there with the ozone treatment?

In general, a good strategy is to put the most durable coating closest to the paint. Whether that's TWS&S or HD Poxy I couldn't say, there are great stories on AGO about both.

The risk is that the ceramic will shed the FK soon after. It wouldn't hurt anything but I'm not sure you'll see real benefit from it.

Concours Nova (an Australian brand) is now called "Nv". Take THAT, search engine optimization!!

So 3/4 cap was still too much for a 1L foam gun? How much did you end up using with good results?

Really? I've never done that with a spray and rinse other than Megs Ceramic. I'll have to try it.
