More Auto Finesse products from their line?

I'm interested in their new formula for Satin Tire Gel. The one in your store doesn't indicate it's the new formula. Can nick or someone that works for AG chime in and say when or if they will ever get more products or simply get the new versions of the products they already carry?

Anyone?
 
Well it looks like AG will no longer carry their line of products based on how there's only 4 products in their lineup.

That's a shame. They have some quality products and I've heard their v2 of lather and satin are great. They've released quite a few new products that look promising as well. Don't get why there is such a lag on getting their products.

Ok, so after using Tripple a few times here are my conclusions/mini review:

The liquid is quite runny but not like a QD. For comparison, I have a bottle of Blacklight and Tripple is a little more runny than that.

Now for application, (I washed my car with citrus wash and clear at stripping dilution), I applied just a few small drops on a MF applicator and went to work. Started in small circle patterns as well as straight lines. Easy to work with and pulled some embedded dirty off the paint and into the applicator. Easy on, let dry, then easy off. Some places I over applied but a quick spray with Finale and it wiped off easy.

I also tried a foam applicator and it was like applying a liquid wax or sealant, easy on and easy off. However, one thing I did notice was dusting with the foam applicator. I wonder if it was due to the polish in Tripple drying.

So I used an old, old technique for applying KAIO which worked PERFECT for Tripple. It involves taking a damp MF pad (soaked in and ringed it out) and put the same amount of polish on the pad and worked in straight lines.

While it was very hard to see the residue on the paint, it was there and the MF pad will still pulling dirt from other sections of the car. And unlike a dry MF pad, using a damp one made me apply the product very evenly on each panel. Then the wipe off was a BREEZE!

Perhaps when I use a dry MF pad, I am over applying but using a slightly damp pad makes my life very simple. And if it works with KAIO, it should work with Tripple because it too is an AIO. Now, I am sure it may have diluted the Tripple a little bit but not sure if that effects anything in the grand scheme of things.

I use Tripple on nearly every detail. But I don't use it how most do.

I find it has really excellent cleaners in it, so for all the painted areas in an engine bay, under the hood, the door shuts, boot shut etc where dirt has been left to build up, I find that working Tripple in with a MF applicator, allowing it to haze up and wiping off, allows me to get these areas looking really good, and somewhat protected, in one very easy step.

IME with it in the traditional use, like an AIO to clean/polish/fill/protect I find it nothing to write home about - I would sooner reach for Autoglym SRP or Menzerna 3-in-1 or Megs cleaner wax.
