This is what I call the Big Dance...what does the product really look like following the 1st wash. This is my favorite time, I can see how "special" a product is. Nothing less than sensational, I can say. I am very impressed! Jeff re-defines "big gloss". And it's not a cheap looking gloss, it's truly rich. The silver car is looking its absolute best. I am extremely pleased. I can't say I've ever seen depth and life from a white paint job, but this car is getting close.
I luv seeing what the finish looks like when it's completely free of any dust and/or residue.
Here are a few shots:
No, I do not own a star filter, but look at the effect. That's what I call true reflectivity:
Soaking wet silver:
Yes, I did go over all plastic lenses and all glass (except the windshield) with Werkstatt:
these two shots are probably my favorite - - look how they demonstrate the clarity and highly reflective quality:
Clean(ed) engine, dirty mind ; )
There is no evidence or residue or staining on any fibrous seals around the sunroof or on the rubbers seal around the window glass. I am very pleased about that.
There's no doubt this product steps up to a new pinnacle. This is a thoroughly contemporary product. Time wil be the final judge - - I'll report back as the months pass.
Enjoy.

Take pictures of Jeff's beading on a dirty roof:
This is the first weekend for many months that I skipped washing a car ... any car :aww:

Yes AJ beads like nothing else IMO. I was driving the wifes BMW to the airport in the rain after prime and 1 coat of AJ. Cruising along at 90 or so and it looked like micro-beads on the hood. Very small and they where moving. :2thumbs:

Quik update:
Here are a few pictures from today. This car is a daily driver and you can see the Werkstatt still looks great. Some of of slickness has been lost from the surface but this car still looks excellent - -even when the paint is dirty which I can't say about other products sampled.
The white car has lost no glossiness and the surface is extremely slick to the touch. This car spends more time in the garage so a direct comparison is not fair.
All things considered, the product is meeting all expectations.

I'm getting the same results after about 4-5 weeks, still looking very nice.

Yes he's fantastic.
Will you be adding his range to your shop?
AJ and auto body wash albeit mixed with Prima Mystique has solved some long standing problems with exterior trim on my car

Update:
The Werkstatt has more than exceeded my expectations for one reason: the cars still look awesome when they're dirty following a week's worth of driving. To me, this is worth a lot. I never found this attribute with the Klasse products and it pleases me immensely to see how good the cars still look after being driven in the rain. It's quite remarkable; the dirty finish looks cleaner and brighter than the typical cleanest car on the street. This is priceless and rewarding for me. Long-term durability and clean appearance are my #1 priorities. :2thumbs:
I freshened up the silver wagon two weekends ago by misting the AJ Trigger and doing a quik wipe down. I did not invest a lot of time, the result was that fresh, breath-taking Werkstatt gloss. Something tells me it's gonna be a long time 'til I find another product that is superior to Werkstatt.

I think that's the thing I like best about AJ; I just re-washed the Maserati I put AJ on about a month ago and the gloss and slickness is still *easily* as good as the day I put it on. I hit it with Trigger anyway, but I absolutely could have left it alone. I've not gotten that sort of longevity (in terms of slickness and gloss) with anything else yet.
