Bence's Fault: FK 1000P

SuperBee364 said:
.........1000p, once aged, combines the best looks of a sealant ("Wow! look at that shine!") with the depth and glow of a good nuba. Bence said this would happen, and once again, Bence was right.........

Hey Supe, it seems like every time you start a thread it costs me money :wall

............*Sigh* looks like *I'm* not done ordering FK products, either. Bence just *had* to talk about Pink Wax, dint he? ;) Ah well, spring's not *too* far away, right?

As long as money is still flowing out of your wallet I don't feel as bad. Guess if I pull the trigger on 1000P I might as well order Pink Wax at the same time......

well I just couldnt leave it, and added a layer of FK1000 over my aging Zaino on the Saab as well :lol:



looks awesome, but even better I got to try my new sample of FK425, and that stuff is superb as well :D I've left a few test areas to see if the 425 makes any observable differences in dirt pick-up this week, as I'm doing quite a few miles.



I also have PW to try, but like others havent wanted to top the 1000 yet. I'll do a panel next wash, and that will leave my car wearing FK1000, PW, Vintage, Royale and Supernatural. Will make interesting watching as we head into winter...

"Just one more product..." :secretMy wife doesn't even pay attention to that line anymore.



That five dollar, all-you-can-eat shipping is the best marketing technique around: "Well, I might as well throw in (product name here), since I can get it all shipped for the same five bucks."
 
I have also been using FX100 as a spray sealant , booster wax , glaze .... whatever and it really pops and is deep. Even though it's labeled as a spray glaze sealant and has was in in also it seems to work well and I have ran it through several touchless carwashes and it's held up well after 3 of them and we all know harsh those detergents are.



IMO is a must have wowo quick wax that has decent staying power.
 
well i put a coat of pink wax over the 2 coats of 1000p this morning, first let me say that the paint looked better this moning than it did yesterday just as bence said it would, i've found this to be true with sealants moreover than nubas. anyway i put the pink on and it gave the finish a deeper gloss and more depth imo. i also wiped it down with 425, which btw is another great product, right up there with the likes of aw, oid, s&g etc, i can honestly say you won't be disappointed with any of these products from fk, especially considering the price compared to some out there.
 
The PW is a nuba/polymer blend and it pretty durable , not to mention you have a excellent base coat under it .
 
I just tried the pink wax today, and my first impression was wow, this is very smooth to apply. Then removal was literally just as easy. Ive never had a wax just slide off so easy. I only waxed half of the hood on my dd, I want to see how long the durability is on it since it sits outside all the time. 425 is very nice also. Made paint that didnt have any wax or sealant on it feel very slick, almost as if it had a coat of wax on it. I also tried the 108 top kote for interior, gives a new look finish that is not greasy and really seems to bring back the color on the plastics. I just wish it smelt better.
 
I just wanted to throw a comment in about Finish Kare 1000P.



When I initially tried it I had a not-so-great experience and did not rate it well.



I have since changed my opinions. It is a very important and effective product for me now.



If you use it, give it time, and really work that first layer in. Use thin layers afterwards.



I though it worth mentioning so folks reading of my earlier experiences would learn from my mistakes.



By the way their quick detailer (425) product is the best QD I have yet experienced. Even better than Adam's. Pretty amazing spray bottle too.

I meant the great nozzle and freely rotating head. Sets a new benchmark for great sprayers.

Hmmm..the sprayer that came with my FK146 leaks quite badly, gotta watch I don't drip it all over. Does spray nicely though.
 
I just placed an order for 1000P and sample of PW and 425. Winter is here in NE Ohio and i am just about to run out Collonite.





great thread. Thanks to all for the review.

Haha sorry about that. Funny, because I thought the sprayer was kind of cheap since I cant spray a wide spread. I can only seem to spray a straight stream.
 
Just wanted to say thanks to Bence, Supe, and the rest of you Autopians since I just ordered my tub of 1000P and a gallon of 425. ;)



Now I have a lifetime supply of 1000P to go with the three bottles of OOS I have. :p
 
Haha, or to quote Accumulator, *heh-heh*, when I saw the 1000P first, said OMG... That tin is huuuuge.



I have 3 coats on my car now topped with FX-100, which is still the best looking spray product I've ever tried (yes, including Z8), but unfortunately it's discontinued.

I totally agree about the spray/sealant/glaze/wax/polymer ...... ect..FX100 best I have ever used. I saw Saw on the website it no longer says "out of stock".



I I wanted to add another coat of FX and then 1000p later would that be ok ? Or a coat of PW and then another coat of 1000p ?
