Autoglym Super Resin and Extra Gloss revisted.
I have been using SRP for years occasionally using Carlack 68 or AIO in its place at times. I much pefer SRP for PC use as I dont really get on with AIO and machine. The EGP however has had little use of late - not until I did the daily hack a few weeks ago with - it hadnt used it in a long while despite having at least 10 litres of it kicking around!
Seeing how well it was holding up on the daily drive 6 weeks, still slick and beading well over an AIO base, I decided to try it for the first time on the garage queen. After much deliberation and mind changing and seeing threads of people using my fave combo's of VM and RMG topped with Souveran or Nattys on Black I nearly didnt do. But am so glad did.
The Clio was in Good shape SSR 2, VM'd RMG'd a couple of months ago, and sealed wih Ex-p. Since then topped with various coats of Souveran and Nattys Blue and maintained with OCW after washing the paint was in good shape. Seeing this I left the PC on the shelf.
Hand polished the car with SRP and yellow megs foam hand pad. Panel at a time, and removed with a Pakshak Ultra. Nice and thin and no dusting problems.
Hand applied a coat of EGP again with a yellow megs foam hand pad, again thin is the name of the game here. In places it was to thick for my liking as I was pushed for time a bit and rushed a little. Applied it the whole car and let cure for a hour before removing. Not the easist product remove not in the league of other sealants in this front. A small amount of dust where I aplied it a little to thick. Suprised bt the looks. Lightly applying the SRP and there had been no change in appreance car looked great. After the EGP even better black, deep and wet, no muting to the flakes in the way others have mentioned.
Not quite as nice as the apperance of a fresh coat of Souveran, but on better un topped than other sealants in my collection, going to layer another coat or two over the next few days and top with Souveran next weekend.
The detail has made me re-think the whole boutique sealants thing, pics to follow for the AG haters! I guess its all down to proper prep as everyone says, but am glad I did try the combo plus its nice o know its got durable protection on there if I need it.
