Is there anything better than FK425?

I have been reading about the FK425 product in past posts and was wondering if a lot of you guys still feel the same about it as being the best, or has anything come along to beat it?

For me, over a sealant -- no. Over a carnuba, I stick with SpeedShine, the look of 425 over a carnuba just seems a bit 'off' to me.
 
Forgot to add, please say where you can get the product. Example, I think you can only get Fk425 from "FK", not positive though.

I just tried Meg's new Ultimate QD - it wipes 425 away in water repellancy, slickness is excellent, and its 9.45 with a 5.00 rebate... I'm not sure how well it cleans though, as I rarely use a QD for cleaning, but I can attest to it being a great after-wash booster.
 
You can get FK425 from Pakshak. I've been holding off until I get some Meg's UQD to try out. That stuff looks amazing. Like a rainx product for your paint.
 
^ you can order a gallon of FK425 for $27.51 with a flat fee of $4.99 for shipping straight from their website ( fk1usa.com ). i'm just about done with my current stock and plan on buying a gallon soon...
 
I've tried PB, CG, Zaino, and Meg's QD's, and I still think 425 is by far the best. I've not used the NEW Meg's QD though. So other that maybe the Meg's UQD, 425 is great...especially for the price.
 
Im about to be finished with my 3rd gallon of FK425, I will see if the local places carry the new meg's UQD to give it a shot. I primarily use my QD's after a wash, or during a detail session to wipe away polishing dust or residue.
 
I applied some Megs Ultimate QD last week, and I have to say I'm really impressed. I washed my car this evening and the water beads like crazy, and it just runs right off the paint. Very slick, and a nice shine. As the previous poster mention, I can't comment on the cleaning ability as I haven't used it for that yet. Good stuff in my opinion.
 
Aussie gold showroom glaze, Prima Slick and Driven to perfection quick spray sure are as good and are multi purpose too. use when you buff the car.



However FK 425 sure is a damn nice product
 
has anyone recently placed an order and either recieved or is intransit or spoke with someone (CS)about ordering FK1 products?

My order is in transit and should be arriving today or tomorrow via USPS. Of course, I forgot to order more 425, as I'm down to a couple of ounces.
 
I hate to sound as cheap as I really am but a huge selling point for me is FK1's cheap shipping. They also seem to process orders fast too. They used to give out samples too, last shipment I didn't get any though...and free samples make cheap people like me very happy.

I sorta lean the same way.



IIRC, the new Meg's stuff is not fresh paint/bodyshop safe, if that matters to anybody.

I fall into that category as well..here's a tip..we're not cheap, we're parsimonious! Sounds so much better, don't you think?
