    Winter prep and protection?

    What’s your prep for winter and what do you like for protection. Last year I did 845 which really wasn’t the right choice for Chicago. Lots of salt, lots of extreme cold and of course lots of road crap and crud. Let me know what you guys have found to be successful for winter protection.

    Sonax BSD and Turle Wax Ice Seal and Shine Removal?

    8 weeks at best. I love the stuff and it is easy to work with. But the weeks in which I tested it we had tons of rain. I drive an average of 80 miles a day. Vehicle is garage kept as well. But It is one of my favorites just didn’t seem to last as long as what I was led to believe. Two...

    Sonax BSD and Turle Wax Ice Seal and Shine Removal?

    BSD has been easier to work with the TW. It doesnt last quite as long but I like the results. Found the same. Seems like to apply either you can us a higher GSM as it will spread better and more evenly. But buffing in...high GSM is terrible for once either one of these sets they get grabby...

    I figured it out, use a damp MF when streaking occurs. It seems to work.

    Sonax BSD and Turle Wax Ice Seal and Shine Removal?

    Everyday beading. 845 side stopped beading about 6 weeks, TW was still beading into the 10th week. No chemical test as for me that is not a realistic everyday test of typical rain, road film and so on. If I am putting super cleaner or purple on it I am obviously trying to strip it off...

    Tesla Paint is interesting. What is your take on it?

    So far Megs 110/210 Ultimate Compound/Polish works well. I have a new bottle of BF One Step I cant wait to try as well but Megs 110/210 are made for these kinds of paint. I like 105/205 as well but not for a tesla. Pad is key also...not sure I remember what is the right one.

    Sonax BSD and Turle Wax Ice Seal and Shine Removal?

    Been using both to test, one on the drive side one on the passenger side. TW is really hard to buff out. I can see all the smudges and need to buff and buff more to get it worked in. BSD (Brilliant Shine Detailer) is easier to take off but still not easy. I like both of these as they seem...
