Yup, I just had to throw away a bunch of pads

Is it the UV that damages paint? Or more so the heat?

If you zoom in on the picture of the back of the car you can see the major orange peel in the reflections.

The NSP primer is a winner. Polishes and primes paint for coating. Has a long working time and buffs off easily. No need to use alcohol or solvent wipe. Saves a step and I hate using panel wipes, they all stink.

Hey All, coated my wife's new CRV. Sharing a few things with y'all! Here's what I did: 1. Wash 2. Nanoskin wash spnge 3. Dr. Beasleys Primer 45 4. Gyeon Pure EVO x2 5. Gyeon Cure Things went well. The cure seemed to work really well as a top layer to help the pure cure. It felt like a super...

Hi All, I love Griots Ceramic all in one wax. So many different ways to use it. Anyone try the wash and coat? I think I`ll give it a shot.

14 month update. No toppers since July. Considering truck is parked outside 100% of the time, fully impressed with Gyeon Pure. Starting to show some wear but still some solid beading for over a year and 11,000+ miles on the truck. Also take a look at the wheel trim. Cerakote ceramic wipes...

HI all. I used the cerakote ceramic trim wipes and they are epic. Lasts long and no runs onto paint from rain. I read online they it is NOT to be used on rubber. Only plastic. Anyone have experience with this? Is it really only plastic? I would love to use this on rubber trim too. Thanks!!

A large highway is getting resurfaced and since it`s here in Hawaii it`s taking forever. I got lots of splatters on road tar on my gyeon pure evo coated truck. What are some products I can use to remove it? I can get most of it off with washing but it takes some effort. Anything safe for the...

I`ll post pictures later. Wanted to share my experiences with the Pure evo and Dr. Beasleys NSP primer. I got a new truck and wanted to get down a solid coating before driving it much. I followed Guz`s step Here`s what I did: 1. Wash 2. Nanoskin Sponge 3. Dr. Beasleys NSP 45 Primer 4. 2...

Revisited an old friend: ZAIO So I am prepping my truck for sale or trade in and wanted to give it a quick polish with something easy to use. I pulled out my 10+ year old Zaino AIO cause I didn`t have to spend any money and know how easy it is to use. I have to say, it still is one of the...

Anyone have experience with these 2? I am usually a gtechniq user but was going to try quartz UK and then saw the SiC as the new product. Anyone try it? Thanks!!

I have a 2012 Toyota Tacoma that is always parked in the sun. After 10 years of sun, beach and beatings, the clear coat has failed on the hood and soon the roof. Etching got through and the clear coat is starting to peel back. I took pretty good care of it but probably didn`t wash the truck...

Ok so I`ve really been liking nankin supercharger. I use it at every wash as a topper for my csl/exo coating on my truck.. It`s super easy, spray on and hose off. It clearly isn`t the best but so easy and cheap. And it gets better, I was able to buy the gallon concentrate. dilutes down to...

Gtechniq CSL/EXO vs Kamikaze Miyabi/ISM? If you had to choose, what would you do? Gtechinq comes out a little cheaper.
