    Top secret!!!!

    If development only started a few months ago how do you substantiate the claims that the product will last for 3 years?

    Introducing!! Pinnacle black label!!!

    Are the specific wheel and glass coatings better for their purpose than the all Surface Coating that can also be applied to glass and wheels?

    Introducing!! Pinnacle black label!!!

    I see the Pinnacle Black Label Leather & Vinyl Coating can be used on plastics. Does it also restore like the GTechniq product or simply protect?

    Has anyone seen this with GTechniq EXO?

    New towel, one of the decent blue AG towels. Polish was Menzerna.

    Has anyone seen this with GTechniq EXO?

    I know what you're saying here but I don't think it was the case here. The only scratches that appeared were in the direction of the wipe when using the panel wipe.

    Apply what with? The exo or panel wipe?

    Has anyone seen this with GTechniq EXO?

    This is the spray Exo. I got the panel wipe but stopped using it after the first panel I tried it on. It seemed to soften the paint and scratched it all to hell while leaving it hazy. I had to repolish after using it.

    Has anyone seen this with GTechniq EXO?

    Prep was clay, polish, then a few wipe downs with IPA. Application was as directed and in the temperature range they require. This product doesn't seem to have the issue with high spots like I've read about the others.

    Has anyone seen this with GTechniq EXO?

    Yup, that's it. I actually did contact them when I first noticed the issue after the first wash. They were quick to reply but had never heard of or seen it before. By the time I went out to take a picture for him it had leveled out and disappeared.

    Has anyone seen this with GTechniq EXO?

    A few months ago I decided to try out some coatings. I was still a little skeptical so I just did some panels on each of our cars to compare to the usual waxes. On my fiances car I have found a strange issue. Cars here in central Texas get very dusty and I believe it has a high clay content...

    Could a coating be an answer to my problems?

    So would you say coatings are noticeably harder than Porsche clear? Like I said, I have my washing technique down. Also, by the time I wash my car it isn't because there is anything that is caked on... more like the dust has just gotten too thick. The car just gets driven on nice days.

    Could a coating be an answer to my problems?

    That's one of my thoughts. Even if the coating swirls some at least when I polish that away I'm not polishing as much of the clear coat way.

    Could a coating be an answer to my problems?

    I have a 996 Turbo in Midnight Blue. Twice in the 7 months I've owned it I have polished it to a beautiful swirl free shine. Not long after the swirls start showing back up. The paint is just so soft. The car is far from daily driven, gets washed with the two bucket method with grit guard...

    Headlight Restoration

    Good results. If you have a rotary polisher in the future you should have a go with it using a heavy compound, then, of course, working to finer polishes. Using this method I have restored some pretty bad headlights in about 15 minutes. The only time I have ever had to use sandpaper was when...

    Midnight Blue 996 Turbo

    I was out in the garage and noticed the reflection of my compressor in the hood and had to take a picture. The back half of the car is pretty dusty. I'll wash it this weekend and take some better pictures then.

    Midnight Blue 996 Turbo

    Thanks for the compliments, guys. I'm not sure how long to expect the BH + Souveran combo to last but if I have to reapply every 6-8 weeks I don't mind. The garaged and not daily driven so it shouldn't be too bad. Normally I use the Wolfgang sealant under the Souveran but I think I like this...

    Midnight Blue 996 Turbo

    When I picked up my car last fall it was full of swirls so I gave it a good polish. It was good at first (see first pic below in harsh direct sunlight) but quickly swirled again. So before it got anywhere near as bad as when took delivery I spent about two and a half hours on it this...

    My only complaint about AG...

    Good to know. I will keep this in mind for the future. Thanks for the reply.
