    Congrats Old Tiger!!

    Thanks John and guys for thinking about me! Two weeks ago I saw a miracle at my Alma Mater. Never saw a finish like that since Doug Flutie!! THen two weeks later, I see Chris Davis go 108 yards on a missed FG return untouched! Unfortunately some of the fringe element has tweeted death threats to...

    Coatings for new truck. Opinions please.

    CQUARTZ has the best look and is the easiest to apply IME. OC is incredibly durable but wont leave that hard candy look. I would go with CQ - UK for a first time use. I have no experience with Black Label yet. I have used the original C1. It is a good coating too.

    Opti coat help

    I prefer CarPro Eraser over IPA. It has more lubricity so is less likely to mar the paint than IPA. Just my $.02!!

    DIY Rotary User

    This is how I started with my rotaries. I now have used wool on occasion. IMO nothing finishes better than a jewelling rotary!

    Need some help w/ Opti-coat on wheels

    IME it works very well on all clearcoated wheels. IME it doesn't play well on chrome. You will be very pleased with the results but I would not top them with anything but ReLoad or Permanon as others will ruin the repellency.

    Pinnacle Black Label Diamond Coating Shampoo

    As usual, Bob, you are spot on! The key IME is no gloss adders, Many of the DODO washes are superb for coatings as is G|Techniq G-Wash.

    AlwaysDry SuperHydroPhobic

    Very interesting! I believe durability has been the Achilles Heel of these type products to date.

    Ordered Pinnacle Black Diamond Coating BUT...

    I asked last week if the DP cleansing would work as well. I didn't get an answer. AG should tell folks if they have a better value alternative.I would assume Dura Gloss Squeaky Clean would be similar too.

    Please Weigh In: Polymer Sealants vs. Ceramic/Silica Products

    I understand your position. I experiment with different toppers. I get to polish and coat friends vehicles when I have time. Polishing is my therapy!

    Please Weigh In: Polymer Sealants vs. Ceramic/Silica Products

    Well said John and spot on! That being said, as most of you know, I drank the coating Kool Ade a few years back! I have installed OC Pro the most. CarPro is a better look IMO. Ive used G|Techniq C1 and Element 119 System X. ReLoad, Hydro and Permanon are the only toppers I use because they...

    Best place to store coatings

    My review of the Flex 3401 and Rupes Bigfoot polishers

    Great thread! I have a 3401 I use for heavy correction. Works very well with wool pads. I would have to try and strike through. I am a huge fan of the DynaBrade Random Orbital Head on a rotary too. If I only had one polisher for all tasks, it would be a 3401 with the LC Backing Plate duo. This...

    Pinnacle Black Label Questions?

    I would go with the Black Label coating and all supporting products. I would go with the dedicated products vice the all in one. You don't need the finishing polish, use the Black Label cleansing polish last instead. Get the new Uber Compound as your free sample if you need a few serious...
