    Sonax polymer net shield vs collinite 845 for winter ??

    I bought your microfiber wash mitts, and the Sonax wash. I have yet to see a single scratch on my truck or anything that appears like marring. I tried to think of what it took to maintain my black trucks and simplify it, black is so horrible to maintain.

    school me on CanCoat

    ours just sits abandoned, it was in a bad location so traffic volume to it wasn't high enough to justify keeping it open. if I had the money I would buy it and make it my personal shop lol

    school me on CanCoat

    southern Indiana/Louisville, KY area. I don't do cold lol the truck will be sprayed off to keep the brine/salt off of it but that's about as far as it will go. we used to have a self serve car was that was heated(closed garage doors) and you could hand wash in there and not freeze to death but...

Im not scrared to buff the truck but its the size of a school bus and would take all day to do if not longer. once a year I intend to polish the truck and reapply whatever I choose...

    Something better than aquapel?

    well the water spotting on the glass is coming from the car wash pressure washer(I hand wash and use the pressure washer to rinse), my home water is the same water pretty much. I guess ill have to start using a leaf blower as soon as im done washing. I don't get the water spots on the paint...

    Something better than aquapel?

    I bought mine through Autogeek specifically for that reason. I just find this stuff to be a PITA to work with. I still had the beading effect with the coating I put on that I used the windex to clean the windows with, but kept getting hard water spots, I coated the windows to avoid water...
