SONAX Polymer Net Shield on Derick Samson's 1952 Mercedes Streetrod



SONAX Polymer Net Shield or PNS for short, is a popular product with serious enthusiast detailers looking for a product that's easy to use, gives great gloss and shine and lasts a long time.

Plus it creates a hydro-phobic surface which means water tries to get away from the coating and this makes quick work of drying your car after washing and also creates a self-cleaning effect when it rains.

Here's some screenshots showing us apply SONAX PNS to Derick Samson's Hotrod Mercedes for the finishing touch before the car is put on display at the Detroit Autorama to compete for the RIDLR Award.

Ah, the great PNS.

I do love this product. Doesn't have the slick feel that so many people like but its water sheeting/beading properties are fantastic.

I don't get the need for slickness. Who in heck is going to be touching your car? Get real. Slickness never has nor ever will equate to better dust or dirt repellency.

agreed....but you would be surprised how many people equate a good product/application with a slick feel

100% agreed. I am not one of those people who need a product to be slick.

I touch my car, and I like the paint to feel slick! And I think there is something to be said for slickness repelling stuff. If the surface feels slick, or is slick, logic says there is less of a chance things will adhere to it. Think floor mats, protect them with a product that makes them slick, and shoes do not grip on them the same as when they arent protected. I do not have any scientific proof of this though.

Here's what I know...


"Perception is reality"


Doesn't matter if we don't like it, don't agree with it or even if it's not reality... perception is reality.

So here's the perception...

People like their paint to feel slick and they equate that to a quality product. It creates the perception in their mind that if the paint feels slick then nothing will stick to it and when it comes to car paint that's a popular characteristic.

I dont think not being slick makes a product low quality. It is just a characteristic that many including myself like to see or feel. More products do leave paint slick than do not.

Hey Mike...I wanted to thank you for turning me on to Sonax products! I have their Brilliant shine detailer and have been really impressed with it's durability and beading properties. I will be applying PNS for wintertime here. The Merc looks great!
