    CarPro Suede MF Cloths (16x16) Wash Before Use?

    I had the same problem with lint that you did, but I had a different solution. I waited for the Perfect to dry and then went over the car with a vintage MF towel to remove the lint. Worked fine and I followed it with the Wolfgang Uber .. Worked perfectly. No lint on the final surface.

    Coatings

    I really like the Black Fire Crystal Coat for sheeting and beading. Moreover, I think you can get it for 1/2 price if you order today! <TED>

    Pinnacle Black Label Surface coating

    Same here! I'm coming up on two years and still have about 1/3 of the bottle left. I used it on two different sets of wheels in the last month and it has worked just fine. (Frankly, I'm really impressed with the shelf life.) <TED>

    Blackfire Coating Updates

    From my personal experience, BF Crystal Coat is about a month after opening the bottle. I did a second car after 6 weeks and it was iffy as heck to get it right. A week later I decided to use the rest of the bottle on my truck and it was impossible to knock the high spots down. I really...

    That sounds about right to me assuming it doesn't have a cap.

    New WG Paint Prep with Black Label Paint Coating?

    First, I wasn't choosing a paint prep product strictly because it is easier to use. I was asking if the other product works, because if you have two products that are both equally effective and one is easier to use than the other it would be foolish to choose the harder to use one. I was...

    New WG Paint Prep with Black Label Paint Coating?

    Well, since there has been little traffic on this question. I decided to give it a try. Unfortunately, it began to rain and the truck I was going to try it on is too big to fit in my garage. I did coat a set of wheels using Pinnacle Black Label Surface coating after prepping with Blackfire...

    PBL Surface cleansing polish?

    I would think that the 98 degree temperature is the culprit. I have found big differences in the way that cleaning polish works depending on temperature. When I tried it in the mid-80s it had much shorter working time and you had to wipe it off really quickly or it would be very hard to get...

    New WG Paint Prep with Black Label Paint Coating?

    Can I use the new WG paint prep or BF paint prep with Pinnacle Black Label Diamond Paint Coating V2? Why? I find it easier to use than the Pinnacle polish. Thanks, <TED>

    Blackfire Coating Updates

    Here is my observation on its longevity. I did one car with it a few months ago. I really liked the results I just did my BMW last weekend. It was a LOT harder to apply. I quickly learned that I had to wipe it off immediately after applying to a small area or it would be hell and all to buff...

    M205 or sf4000

    I am an old 205 guy - I like SMAT polishes - but I am now using Menzerna or Black Fire (Same thing). The main reasons are working time and much less dust.

    Roll Call! Who drives a MANUAL transmission?

    I do. Fiat Abarth! I've been driving manuals for over 60 years! Still don't like autos and the automanuals aren't much better. (Even the best of the paddle shifters aren't much more than a suggestion!). <TED>

    Query on "new" PBL Surface Coating?

    I know there is a version 2 of PBL Paint Coating, but is there a version 2 of the Surface Coating as well? Thanks, <TED>

    *NEW* BLACKFIRE Crystal Coat Paint Coating!

    I'll comment on the applicators if anyone is interested. I used the Lake Country coating applicator on my first car, though I don't like that applicator - it absorbs too much product and is hard to control later in the process. As a result, I used two on a very small car (Fiat 500). It...

    I use a single coat of DP Tire Coating. I don't know if it is a matte finish, but it is a natural finish. <TED>

    Windshield cleaning

    Ceriglass is serious stuff and I wouldn't use it to try to remove a haze. You could get right into the glass with that. When I have a problem with unidentified stuff on the windscreen, I use a bit of very fine finishing polish (I happen to use some old stuff from Chemical Guys because I have...
