I should have been clearer in the beginning. My thinking was geared towards products that act like a glaze and fill imperfections that the polishing didn't get before the LSP. More of masking a defect rather than remove it. If I explained everything in my head around this, my post would get...

How long did you wait for the Essence to cure before applying BFCC?

I've been reading a lot of the forums and following others detailing pages, and that's what triggered the questions. It seemed from the majority of reading that people were against glazes and such artificial enhancements were an abomination. To me it seems that if you're caring for long term...

There's a few instances where I'm against fillers. -If you're trying to pass off "paint correction" by using them to mask your incomplete set of skills. -Lack of durability with fillers, and can affect LSP(until recently). The Pro side of thinking. -Reduces amount of paint being removed. This...

Thanks Mike for clearing that up. Got hasty with my post while my kids were at my feet.

I can't believe it's only valued at $129k. That's a steal for such a rare car.

Cquartz UK can be found for under $40 and the regular Cquartz isn't $100. Each bottle will last for a couple cars. Product cost is anywhere from $20-40 per vehicle. Add that price into your coating package.

Description sounds a lot like my wife.

My own reflection or my phone is in most of my shots. I assume you don't want anything else reflecting in the after shot.

Good work. Really got that silver to pop.

For me, learning to detail cars the proper way has taught me to have more patience and pay attention to the fine print when using new products. Like many others, this form of art can be an outlet. It's become a way to handle road blocks and my personal life is becoming a little more organized...

No worries about Essence weakening any of the previous coating? I'm super curious on the longevity of it all. Common sense tells me that even with Finest on top, it will fail when the first coating fails, however I'm keeping an open mind. Pics of the crazy glow? I was going to put BF coating...

This is answered on the CarPro forum. Ill parrot whats been said. Essence alone can provide protection but does not give a high contact angle. This is why its recomended to top it with Reload. The claim for this protection is up to 12 months.

Good thing I read this. I wasn't aware of the short shelf life. That puts a bit of a damper on things. I'll have to plan my details better. The bottle states no liability for misuse, so the OP is getting a deal on replacement.

I jumped on this sale since I want to try out other coatings. Couple days later it was offered cheaper, but I still got a good deal since shipping was free. I ended up receiving it a day earlier which was a great surprise too.

Just a tad envious of that lift. Man that would save me some back pain.

With its ability to fill and correct, just curious if the swirls are removed or slightly improved/filled in? Thanks for that 50/50. I've been anxious to see other examples until I get mine on Friday.

Could you see any contaminants sticking to the clay bar? Are you prepared to polish afterwards? I would try using a medium grade clay bar on a section.

ummmmmmmmmmmm thanks for that insight. There was mass confusion with this customer and plans constantly changed. They didn't follow my recomendations. Looks like I'll be keeping the car for a bit longer.
