I have read many a post saying how great this product is but never bought it because I already have a great sealant in Klasse.



Recently I noticed it was on sale and picked some up. Today was a balmy 56F here so I decided to give it a whirl. With the last few months being kinda busy with my Mom's cancer and things going from bad to real bad this past weekend I needed something to take my mind of things and what better way to lose yourself.



I didn't have the time to properly prep so no polish or clay, im going on top of 4 week old S100, not much if anything left by now.



The product didn't really seem all that revolutionary when I sniffed it, some PD and kinda thick. Boy was I wrong, this is great stuff.



After applying a thin coat to the entire car and wheels I let it set for about 30 minutes. I removed on the wheels first and was pleasantly surprised at just how slick this stuff is, nice reflections too.



After removing one or two panels I had decided this is my new favorite product. As easy on and off as anything I have ever used. Slick Slick Slick is all I can say. I was drawing stares at the entrace to the Lincon Tunner as a felt my roof and door in traffic.



I haven't been a happy guy lately but this product brought a smile to my face and the chance to get to detail this time of the year made my day.



If anyone has any tips for using this product I would love to hear them. Im also curious on durability, if this stuff lasts im sold.
 
Great product for me too. I have personally seen UPP go for 4+ months in the summer AND winter here in Memphis. That is with at least weekly washings with either QEW or a traditional NXt wash.



Not sure what type of durability you will get applying it over 4 week old s100, but keep us posted. I find that UPP works best over UPC or AIO. FWIW, when using UPP I prefer UPC.
 
FalconGuy, I hope that things will work out for you.



I'm glad you had a good experience with UPP. I'll be trying it myself in the near future.
 
I've tried a lot of combo's and on dark finishes in decent shape I like UPC, UPP x 1 , EX or EX-P x 1, topped with Natty's wax.
 
I also recently tried UPP, i love it :)



Put some on the trim around the windows after you AIO, outstanding !

Welcome to the 4 Star Club! I put some UPP on my car in November. It does begin to fade after about a month. But then I put some 4 Star Spray Wax Carnauba Quick Wipe on the car in December. I haven't used anything on the car since, and the shine, oh, the shine!



You don't have to apply and let it sit. You can wipe on, wipe off with the same results, thus saving you some time.

Glad to hear you like the UPP so much. Only real tip I have is to put it on thin, as in KSG/Zaino thin. I like to let it set up for a while, but as you can see some people do fine with w-o-w-o.



I find the extreme slickness can drop off after a while, but it's still going strong protection/looks-wise. Some people use the 4* UGE spray but I generally just apply another coat of UPP when the slickness drops off too much.
 
I love 4* UPP and am a convert from KSG. Until I discovered UPP, I was using KSG topped with S100. I like how UPP looks on my Silver Blue Acura much better.



The 4* UGE spray goes well, and definitely enhances the shine. I use it after every wash, and the the car just seems to shine. But, like Accumulator, I like to throw a new coat of UPP on whenever it stops feeling slick.
