Blackfire or Nu Finish

I've been using Nu Finish & I like the results, but lately I've read a lot of good things here about Blackfire. I just read a bunch of threads about polymer finishes and Blackfire was not mentioned. Is it a polymer? sealer? wax? Where can I find it? I want something easy to use and durable. I like that Nu Finish can be applied in the sun. Is Blackfire a comparable product? Thanks.
 
Sciguyjim,



I use both products. For what it costs, and the way I use it, I think Nufinish is a very good product. It keeps my truck shiny and makes it very easy to wash. This is important to me as it takes forever to wash a full-size truck. The truck sits outside in the full Sacramento sun all year long. After 5 years of use, the paint I haven't scratched (its a 4X4) still looks and feels good.



I use the Blackfire on my daily driver. It is garaged when home, but it sits in the sun while I'm at work. I've only put 2 coats of the blackfire on. The blackfire seems to be lasting just fine, its been on over 2 months now, and the cars paint still seems to have a "glow" to it. It is a different look than the Nufinish and it does not make the paint feel "slick", but I like the way it makes my white paint look a alot.
 
Nu finished is very durable. Why not try a topper over the Nufinish like S100. I topped with meg. #26 and it gave the car a deeper shine. It was an older car and I just sold the car. I perfer Klasse AIO. it is easier to apply and remove and gives a better shine.



BTW: My main complaint about Nufinish is it stains the trim. On the other hand I don't think anything last longer and Nufinish works well on clear coated wheels because of its duarability.

A) What is S100?

B) I prefer to keep things simple and not worry much about using brand A on top of brand B. I'm not a detailing fanatic. I like a shiny car but I like little work even more. I'm on a disability income so I want to keep costs to a minimum too.

C) I use Nu Finish on my wheels too, and I like it too.
