Grrrr...SIRI!!! I hate autocorrect on the iPad -- so many stupid typos (sufficient = suffice, at least one instance of their = there...). Why don't we have a bang your head against a wall smiley on this forum? lol -Eric

I have no debate with CR's credibility when it comes to electronics, appliances and consumer items, in general, but I'll save you from my long diatribe against them in the automotive arena. Sufficient it to say, they have no credibility here in my book. As for Infiniti, as a car guy, I've...

That's fine. No debate. I just don't trust CR...at all...when it comes to cars. My point was only to do the research on the model on a forum of owners. While they're enthusiasts of the brand and you have to sift through some of the fanboi stuff, they also tend to be surprisingly vocal about...

I love some of the advice in this thread. Ignore most of it. Seriously. Buy what you want. Relatively speaking, there are no "bad" cars out there these days. For every "Toyota/Lexus" person you'll find someone equally as militant about their love of Honda/Acura products. Plenty of people...

I primarily use the paint coating for the body but I've got the kit so I've also used the wheel coating and glass coating. To me, the paint coating is worth the cost of entry for the shine alone. It's not cheap but a little goes a long way. Unfortunately, I can't really speak to longevity...

It takes me a long time to work through my tubs of Souveran paste and I've never seen a breakdown of its components. It spends 365 days a year in my garage in CT. This week, the outside temps are in the 90s (with humidity levels that feel very close) and in the winter the temps will drop below...

My real name is Eric. My screen name is just a play on the latin phrase 'sua sponte.' -Eric

P.S. Did I post this in the wrong forum? I'm happy to move it (or have it moved) if so.

Okay, so I recently picked up a Chemical Guys Carbon Flex C9 kit for free through a promotion and have some questions about it. I know there's a lot of negativity on the board about CG products but I'll go on record as saying their Hybrid v7 paint sealant is awesome as a detailer. It leaves...

650hp from a 997?! Unless he was starting with a Turbo or higher level car you're pretty much taking about doubling the horsepower of the base cars. The 997.2 made about 340hp (vs the 997.1's 320hp) but even the Turbo only made about 475hp stock. Was it a Turbo S, GT3 or GT2? They each made...

Coated with Pinnacle Black Label 6 weeks ago, recently applied Jet Seal and then topped with Pinnacle Souveran paste. -Eric Sent from my iPad

I love CG's Hybid v07 as a sealant but I also use it on top of a Pinnacle Black Label paint coating...and I use Pinnacle Souveran paste as a last step.

One of the most recent regrets -- California Duster Wheel Brush. Total piece of garbage. It broke after a few uses. The cloth that attaches the duster to the top of the prongs that separate around wheel spokes split from normal use (no, the loops didn't get attached to anything). I've had...

Thanks!

Okay guys, at what point in the process is this stuff supposed to be applied? 1) Wash 2) Clay 3) Polish/Paint Cleaner 4) Glaze 5) Sealant 6) Wax -Eric

I can't speak specifically to Synergy but the PBL Paint Coating page says "Diamond Paint Coating can be topped with your favorite carnauba wax, like Pinnacle Souveran, to add a warm carnauba glow." I use Pinnacle Souveran because it goes on so easily and the results are beautiful. I then use...

Mother's Back to Black surprises me a bit. What disappointed you? -Eric P.S. Nevermind...lol...I just realized it was a 2yr old post! lol

Thanks, Nick! Yes, that's what I was planning on doing tonight. Sounds like it's time for another order. :) So far I'm very happy with the PBL system. I'm not sure about its durability yet -- as I haven't really tested it -- but alone it looks amazing. I've also applied Pinnacle Souveran...

Thanks! What about even Pinnacle Paintwork Cleansing Lotion? I know it is supposed to remove old wax and is sometimes called a fine polish but it doesn't remove swirls (it just fills them). Is it not aggressive enough? Too aggressive? Or just the wrong product entirely? -Eric
