wanted to try a different line. so PRIMA won.
AMIGO: wanted to clean and prep the paint to ready it for HYDRO SEAL. grey in color. like toothpaste. applied by hand with a white CS pad. no drama or issues here. removed with a MF towel. left the finish clean with mild correction of surface defects. it did deepen the color and looked great.
HYDRO SEAL: this i really wanted to try. armed myself with a spray bottle of water, two MF towels and HYDRO SEAL. small learning curve here. you soak one MF with water. wring it out till damp. mist the panel with water. put about a quarter size dollop of HYDRO SEAL on the MF and work it in. spread it on the panel till it flashes then wipe off any remaining residue with the other MF. continue on. all glass and plastic can be treated too! wanted to note: really does justice to the plastic trim! BIG BONUS. wow. left a slick deep shine. paint really looked like glass. if you get some streaking, no worries. just mist the panel with water again and wipe. the look is somewhere between a carnuba wax and sealant. really stunning. a really different and easy way to apply a sealant.
HYDRO: WAX AS U DRY SPRAY. i can see why users of this rated it #1. i used it dry with MF towel. mist the panel and wipe off. easy. i wanted to try it and by doing so insured the xterra was covered with HYDRO. amazing look. again like glass. and it was noted after some curing time it even looks better! checked it this morning, and indeed the shine deepened if thats possible!
nice part about this 3-step is once you use AMIGO then HYDRO SEAL your good to go. you can maintain with the HYDRO spray as needed. (checked with NICK of PRIMA on this).
the bottles, sprayer and smell of the PRIMA products were outstanding. and no MF were harmed in this detail. washed clean with MF cleaner.
so there you have it. PRIMA. different, easy to use and great results.
DURABILITY: nick stated anywhere from 6-8 months.
