Thank you!!! I'm glad you like my products! PreCoat is being reworked. Although I loved the concept, it's not quite ready for primetime yet. Blame it on me not wanting to release something that I'm not 100% happy with. I did however revise PreCoat into a fantastic glass cleaner. That will...

Black WOW Professional Trim Restorer, black wow pro, plastic trim restorer What is BlackWow Pro and how is it different from the original Black Wow? My name is Richard Lin and I am the inventor and creator of BlackWow as well as being a full time detailer for over 10 years. I have a 6,000 sf...

When we detail white or silver cars, the best way to do it is in the dark lit by a single point light source. If you take a light colored car outdoors, unless the swirls are very heavy, the ambient light will blow out the defects making it difficult to see. It's a very common phenomenon to...

As a vendor (BlackWow), we had an incredible time talking to customers and hearing their detailing stories. The immense number of attendees to the event was nearly overwhelming on Saturday but it was amazing for sales! What I missed most was hanging out and talking with all my manufacturer...

I have been using Prima for years and you are absolutely correct, Prima Epic with an Orange Pad can work great as an AIO. It doesn't contain any abrasives but it does enhance the paint significantly and it helps lubricate the pad which is doing all the cutting. I often find that after doing it...

Thanks! Fortunately they are paying as the jobs are completed, so we get payment by the end of each day. :xyxthumbs: Much appreciative of your insight! Richard

Thank you!!! Yes, this is very exciting for us. :xyxthumbs::xyxthumbs::xyxthumbs: Richard

Thanks!! There something interesting about the "metallic" in that it's not metallic flake but glass so it reflects differently. From what the engineers have told me is that if anyone gets into an accident-- trying to paint match them will be impossible. From what I've seen so far, the paint...

Yep they are very cool. I posted one day of doing mini details..exterior and interior work on their engineering prototypes. Their press cars will need correction and all of the fun stuff and that's coming down the line. Actually of the 10 cars we worked on yesterday, they all could use...

Yep you read the title right, we were chosen by Fisker Automotive to maintain their fleet of 27 luxury electric cars. Yesterday we had 10 of them in the shop representing $1.2Million worth of cars. Pretty exciting stuff. I was sorry that I couldn't be at DetailFest to represent my Black Wow...

Looking forward to seeing you Joe, although you're only 45 minutes from my shop, and we have to meet up in Florida, still an opportunity not to miss, lol. Stop by my booth and say Hi, I'll have something for you. Richard

I'm sorry I'm replying late to this thread as I just found it, but some clarification needs to be made here. First off, thanks to the OP for posting up this comparison. On March 29, 2009, I posted this writeup Titled: Black Wow on Severely Neglected Trim with a Lincoln Mark LT as the...

See you tomorrow Dwayne. I got a small stash of PreWow with me for you to play with. I'll be driving up in the morning..in about 12 hours from now. :xyxthumbs: Richard

The honeymoon was awesome!!! I know this event is long over but some of these pix were already on Flickr here The sunset we saw every night while having dinner in Bali. 1951 DeSoto - a set on Flickr

Thanks! Yeah it only had 68,000 miles on it before the previous owner totalled it, and it became a salvage title thanks to worn out tires and a bad master brake cylinder. re: insurance conflict I thought that's what the uninsured motorist coverage is for...of course, maybe the fact I'm in...

Oh ok that's good to know. Never hurts to protect yourself! Thanks for the clarification. :xyxthumbs::xyxthumbs: I guess the way I've avoided a large bailment is to just use an inexpensive car, lol. My loaner car has been this 1988 Toyota MR2, gets great gas mileage, it's sporty, nearly...

In what way would a service loaning a car be different than you loaning your car to a friend? As long as you both have insurance and a valid license, I don't know why the owner would need anything more. I'm curious about the answer too though because I've loaned one of my cars out to my...

Great post. Let me add a few more tips. I like to take a picture of the sun if it happens to be an overcast day. Take this shot. The sky was clear without any haziness, yet the paint looks hazy though my test spot shows a different story. Hazy! Proof of Haziness (left side polished...

Great video!! Really nice to see Prima being used as a spray sealant on top of that gorgeous finish and also their glass cleaner. :xyxthumbs: Richard

Black Back is not the same as Black Wow(BW). I'm the manufacturer of it (BW) just to be clear. If you don't clean off the stained trim, no matter what product you apply, it will fade eventually and no longer mask the stains. The only permanent solution is to remove the stains, then...
