I'm always astounded when I pick up an issue of one of the major automotive publications and read the comparisons between an all new model and its replacement. Take for example the 7th generation Corvette: If you pick up an issue that was written a year ago, the C6 Corvette is made to sound like the greatest thing since tuned-port fuel injection. Read about the C7 Corvette, however, and you'll notice comments regarding the C6's nervousness at the limit, shaky structure, etc. The fact that GM and the Corvette team can make the C7 Corvette so good that it makes the C6 look inferior is awe-inspiring. The same scenario isn't uncommon in the world of car care products either.

While you wouldn't normally associate the word "improvement" with car care products that bear the Pinnacle name, we're always looking for a way to somehow tweak a product to make it easier to use, longer lasting, etc. One of the biggest challenges to overcome is the price; better ingredients cost more money. Making a better product at equal or lower cost relies on smart chemistry. With that being said, I'm proud to introduce a new-and-improved formulation of Pinnacle XMT Final Finish Instant Detailer. With this new and improved formulation comes a lower price of entry - $12.99 versus $15.99.
Pinnacle XMT Final Finish Instant Detailer - What's New
The new and improved XMT Final Finish Instant Detailer contains more Stay-Slick polymers that repel dirt, water, and moisture, keeping your vehicle clean and protected. This gloss-intensive detail spray makes for a great drying aid because the Stay-Slick polymers cause water to sheet rather than bead, practically eliminating the chance of water spots from occurring after you wash your vehicle. XMT fans fear not - this versatile detail spray is still 100% sun-light friendly, making it a great choice for people that don't readily have access to a garage.
"Wax As You Dry"
Using a "drying aid" is when you spray a specially designed quick detail spray or spray wax directly onto the wet surface as you dry each panel. The purpose of this is to help eliminate water spots, increase gloss and slickness, and in some cases, a drying aid significantly reduces the effort it takes to dry the vehicle. All of the above, especially the latter, can be said about the new and improved Pinnacle XMT 360 Final Finish Instant Detailer.
Using a drying aid is simple: wash the vehicle and spray Pinnacle XMT Final Finish Instant Detailer directly onto the surface while it's still wet. Ideally you want to work on one panel at a time. After spraying an ample amount of product on the surface, dry as you normally would using a Cobra Waffle Weave Guzzler Drying Towel.
Here you can see how Pinnacle XMT Final Finish Instant Detailer causes water to sheet as soon as it's sprayed onto the surface. This significantly cuts down on any effort required to dry the vehicle. This makes drying your car in direct sunlight especially easy.
Here you can see part of the hood that was easily dried with just one swipe of the Guzzler.
Here's another example:
Safely Remove Light Dust & Dirt
Pinnacle XMT Final Finish Instant Detailer can be used to safely remove light dust and dirt in between washes. Like all other Pinnacle XMT products, Final Finish Instant Detailer can be used in direct sunlight. When using Pinnacle XMT Final Finish as a quick detailer, I always use the Cobra Gold Plush Jr.—my all-time favorite towel for use with quick detailers.
Simply spray and wipe!
Call Me The Gloss Boss
The new and improved Pinnacle XMT Final Finish Instant Detailer quickly coats your vehicle in high-gloss polymers, creating a shine that's typically reserved for dedicated spray waxes.
If you're a fan of using a drying aid or if you've never used a drying aid, pick up a bottle of the new and improved Pinnacle XMT Final Finish Instant Detailer. You'll be pleasantly surprised how much it improves the washing experience. Now if only the Corvette team could have made the C7 cheaper than the C6...
