Paint prep and that body style are why the pic looks soo wet. You'd probably get the same from OS on that particular car. Scottwax did a black one with Zaino a few months back that looked as good. Not knocking your ride or product choice, but I think it's more about your perfect condition than product applied. How many miles one that? Daily driver? Garage kept? Looks absolutely fantastic!

Direct sun light pics below, looks pretty wet even two weeks after application and two washes with Ultima Paint Guard Wash.

Re: Does UPGP Work?
So, do most buy the 4 oz @ $35 or pop for the 12 oz @ $75? Says the 4oz will give about 20 applications but looks like everyone puts on multiple coats (seems like most obsessively can't help themselves)...
Just curious before opening the wallet.

I have about 50 applications out of my 4 oz. bottle and I have only used about 1/3 of it!
I would suggest the 4 oz. bottle unless you are a professional who will use it everyday.

Excellent...thank you for the reply. Looking forward to trying it out. I do like the fact you spray directly on the pad. I've used the same technique with QD on a MF towel when removing light dust. No streaking and you tend to apply with very light pressure rather than wiping.

Re: Does UPGP Work?
How does UPGP compare to 1000P?

Re: Does UPGP Work?
I like it muuuuuch better. Much better look. Easier to use. Tough as nails.
I went back to 1000P for interior gloss wood trim tho.

You can easily do more than 20 applications with that 4 oz bottle. This stuff is like nothing I have ever used before, a little really goes a long way. Yes, we UPGP people get very obsessive compulsive about applying this stuff because it is super easy.

Hey Doc, if I put a nuba over UPGP can I reapply UPGP over it?
