Maybe Jeff should put together a sampler package for <= $15 so people can try his products on an impulse buy and see how they work on one panel of their car (hood or trunk). A few companies do that and I'm happy to pick up their products to see what they can do with a minimal cost investment. If it is really good stuff, I'll always buy more.

:iagree: if it weren't so expensive to get in, I'd definitely try it. I just don't have the need for ANOTHER full set of products.

eh, I wouldnt count on that happening any time soon. I would say look for trades in the trading post but I doubt anyone is getting rid of their Jeff W. products...they are simply amazing and above all other products I have tried this far. The ease of use and the result is amazing

Werksttat better than All in One?

that's a big statement.

and what's this about carlack? is it just rebranded?

I'm using Trigger and its very easy to use indeed. But so is my EXP.
I don't see a big difference on silver. I think EXP is cheaper with a little more
quantity but I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong.

p.s. anyone try Natty's Blue on silver vs. original Natty's?

Original Prime has all the great flexibility of AIO; however, it has slightly less chemical cleaning ability than the "old" (pre-VOC) AIO. I prefer Prime since we know Jeff is using the latest updated nano-formula from Carlack. Jeff goes a step further than Klasse AIO in offering several different versions of Prime to suit your need for either more acrylic protection or stronger abrasive polishing.

Hmmm... Again, I can't see dropping $50 to buy into this. I'd REALLY love it if there were a sampler kit. *shrug*

SilverLexus · 06-02-06, 03:02

The long list is published elsewhere but my short list would be:

Eagle One All Wheel & Tire Cleaner
Z-2Pro or Z-5 Pro plus ZFX
Z-8 (of course)
1Z Cockpit Premium or Wolfgang Vinyl & Rubber and Scheibenklar
FX Tire Shine
PakShak towels
Lake Country pads
MetroVac for vacuuming the interior
303 Aerospace on seals and hoses

5)Tires - I never see this one on Autopia, but I use NoTouch tire foam. It works great for me, just the right matte (not too shiny), and lasts a good month or more for me. If it ain't broke, don't fix it....

Stuff rocks! Especially the Purple can..........

I can't find No-Touch Tire Foam on the web. I google and msn search it, but don't come up with any hits for the manufacturer OR people who sell it.

Got a link?

It probably wouldn't be accurate were it any other product but Prime IMO.

It costs $19.95 for 16.9 oz, with the special editions topping out at $23.95. AIO in the 16.9 oz size at Pakshak is $26.95 on sale. You don't have to use the entire Werkstatt system to use Prime.

Try a google search on "no touch tire care". ( "no touch tire care" google search)

Edit: It looks like Permatex bought the original company: Permatex No Touch

Thanks! It is funny how I was so close, but yet so far from what I need to get the hit. Thanks for getting me the correct name!

I'd like to get this stuff because I like Meguiars Hot Shine's Aerosol's can ease of use, but it is WAY too shiny. I prefer the matte look of Griots Vinyl and Rubber Dressing, but it too cumbersome to apply (vs Hot Shine). This could be exactly what I'm looking for!
