BLACKFIRE BlackICE Hybrid Montan Sealant Wax FREE BONUS
#1 for black car wax.
$150.00
Yup thats a heafty price tag for wax... Let me tell you why it's sooooooo worth it. I went to Coachella this last weekend(Giant music festival in the desert) near Palm springs. I racked about 1300 miles. I Litterally washed my car pulled it out of the detail bay, locked up the shop and left for the trip. I had a clean slate to start with and looked something like
That is the Black Fire Whiplash look we all love.
This is the next morning, Still clean for a 100 miles into the trip(we stayed the night at my girls mom's house. She's our dog sitter) Really no sign of being dirty at all, I couldn't find a bug or any polen on the car. So far so good!
400 miles into the trip, this is first stop for gas. Well I'm starting to see some dust type film build up the car. Not bad at all though
Same stop you can see that Black Ice is holding up very well. I was getting compliments everywhere I went from strangers about how good my car looked!
Bathroom break about 150 miles later. Still barely anything on the paint. Black Ice is doing awesome at keeping the dirt away. Barely any bugs are even sticking to it. I-5/99 bugs are nightmare and so far its been minimum.
We made it to our hotel right out side of Indio califorina
HUGE Ferris wheel
You can see in this cars getting a little dusty, But considering were in the middle of windy desert its holding up very well.
You can see its still really shiny under the dust.
Next day, this is 3 days into the trip.
That night... SAND BLIZZARD this isn't the worst part. My skin felt so smooth the next day from being sand blasted trying to listen to Wu Tang, and Chili peppers. It was misreble out side though. Hard to breath as well.
Thats how bad it was out side. About 10 minutes after this pic the freeway came to a hault for about an hour. My girl made fun of me as I sat in the car whining. How would you feel listening to your car get sand blasted. It sounded horrible.
The next morning... I couldn't see what was under this but I was nervous to say the least.
The sand storm ate my tire dressing, and trim dressing...
Here's the line where my vinyl quicky bug gaurd was when I pulled it off. You can see water beading nicely.
After washing...:yay It survived! Seriously next to nothing on the paint. One of the guys who works next door also went to the same place I did, came back in the same sand storm and his cars is jacked... Looks like it got ran over with 2k sand paper.
Back to normal!!!!! Seriously the damage is so light on the car that I couldn't capture it on camera.

Ok sorry that video sucks, next time i'll have someone else hold the camera for the washer :wall ... But considering my car got sand blasted you see the beeds and sheets. The most impressive part of the wash was that Black Ice was releasing fall out and dirt at almost at an Opti-Coat level(I am not comparing the 2 at all. Just saying in my experience never seen ANY wax or sealant come even close to the repelling ability of opti-coat). Black Ice let the dirt and 1300miles of road grime fall right off the car.
I'm really impressed with how well this stuff held up. Even with all the dirt on my car it still had a better shine than 90% of cars on the road.
I've actually put Black Ice on a bunch of cars of all different colors. Only tip I could give you is after you take it off make sure you look the car over out side because it seems to leave some oil streaks on the paint. I found a little QD and an MF get it off the easiest. This is true for a lot of different waxes/sealants so nothing new here, I'm probably just spoiled by BFWD's super easy on off.
Thanks for looking
