SEMA 2018... 2019 Products

That looks like a very inefficient use of product and if the video is correct at $100 a bottle it sounds overly expensive.

I asked whether the QD is silica infused and the answer is No.


One from Sonax which was showcased on their live feed on Instagram.

The Sonax Final. With Perfect Finish and it's brother, is Final supposed to be a bit better? Those other two are already really good.

I think Duragloss is a great example of this as well.

Not true with Duragloss and McKees.

They’d still pay a designer for the work, they just have a very “interesting” package design that probably has its roots in packaging from the early days of car care and their brand focus is on the product instead of the image.

They aren’t in the same leagues as Poorboys whom have ‘economy’ as a brand promise.

Looks like Final has a cut of 1 instead of 4 so it’s basically just a gloss enhancer, not really enough to correct anything. I bet it will be good to finish soft paint before a coating. Probably to be used with finishing pad.
 
The opti stuff look really good especially the tire coating looks nice and thin to put on and the clear coat stuff/gel coat restore is so cool the opti dude is a funny fella....mike’s look on his face when the pig with lipstick comment was said was good. How long before autogeek starts selling SEMA stuff does it usually take.

A true finishing polishing. Some say a jeweling Polish. Their version of Menz 3800! Very Very very fine abrasives for max gloss.

That may have been (I mean is) Poorboy's marketing message, but I don't think the pricing was any less than any other boutique products.

Makes you wonder when you see brands like BH providing quality at a great price.

That's a huge bottle of tire coating...not sure if it will come in a smaller size, or if that quart will be reasonably enough priced they won't sell it in a smaller size...although most of their stuff comes in an 8oz size. I missed that lipstick comment, I had to watch it again to see what you were talking about.

As far as when Autogeek has SEMA stuff...it depends on the manufacturer--Meg's on their forum said the new polishes will be in their distribution center on Monday, Griot's said they wanted to have all the stuff available by the end of the year, the Optimum Gelcoat Restorer is already for sale in their store (for the last few weeks), I haven't seen the other stuff (well the clay towel and mitt have been out for a while too).
 
Good stuff, Guz.

I guess that Optimum tire coating will be avail in 8oz, interesting to see the price point. That was REALLY interesting with the Scangrip lights with the different color temps for different paint colors, and the bluetooth control. The UDOS...maybe I'm just not able to wrap my head around the concept, but I just can't see dialing up a different stroke length with the same pad diameter...maybe I'm just not thinking outside the box. Also not sure about how that standing it on the cord to adjust is going to work out over time...enough people have enough cord problems already.

M110/210...sounds great...wonder how "oily" 210 is vs. 205.
 
So is it just me? In that video that's around here somewhere of Jason Rose and Mike Phillips in the Rupes booth, when they are over looking at the Mk. III polisher, down in the "tray" below the polisher racks (I guess in the "dashboard" area of the little red car front end), I swear I saw a couple of polishers that looked like an iBrid Nano, except giant sized. Maybe it they were just Nanos and the camera angle made them look bigger. Did anyone else notice that?
 
Kinda happy I never got into Megs 105/205 now. Some people swore by it, others swore at it. I’ll pick up the new 110/210 and see how good they are.
