Jeff's Werkstatt = Awesome

I just received my Jeff's Werkstatt shipment. I ordered the Prime strong, Satin Prot, Carnauba Glos & Jett, and the Acrylic Jett. I haven't even tried any of these products out, so how can I say that Jeff's Werkstatt is awesome?

Because I got a PERSONAL printed letter with my package thanking me for my order, and signed by hand!

Also, the packaging on these products looks extremely functional, and the instructions are short, concise, and clear.

I really look forward to trying out these products, and expect excellent results.

You can find his site at http://www.jeffswerkstatt.com/ if you haven't already checked out his line of products!

Please be sure to give us a review. I am currently using Zaino on customers cars and my own because of the looks/slickness/and how easy it is to maintain. I want to hear what previous Zaino users have to say about AJ and how well the durability is. I cant wait to get my AJ to try out the system myself! Have fun, and take pictures!

When you use zaino on customers car, do you use zfx? or just a single coat of Z? I have used zaino in the past and yes there is a slight difference, zaino is more on the reflective side. Ive noticed that Prime Strong and AJT darken the paint a little bit. As far as the durability goes, 2 coats of Aj have gone for about 2 months, but by then the beads were getting weak. Longes IVe seen zaino go is 6months and that was 3 coats fo Z5.
Since prime strong is a cleaner, Im gonna apply it on my daily and use zaino on it and see how that goes..

Well I do use ZFX, but only apply one coat. As I understand it, even with a single coat the Z5Pro needs to have the ZFX for the initial later, and when layering.

Does anyone have any pictures of the same vehicle, or at least same color with Jeff on one and Zaino on the other? ...off to search Scottwax's posts to take a gander once again on the results given.

I love the Werkstatt Prime and AJ. I didn't care much for the Acrylic Glos but I'd like to give the Prime Strong and Carnauba a whirl.

I just did the hood on my lexus, half was prime plus ajtrigger and the other half was prime plus z5..here are the pics..
The whole car is prime strong and ajt, but the hood is divided into half, the passenger side is prime strong plus 1coat of z5, the driver side is 3 coats of ajt..






At this point, to be be honest, I cant tell the difference. Now maybe the fact that I used prime strong and then z5 might have something to do with

Anybody who has used Jeff's know how it compares to Klasse twins? How about Poorboys sealants?

Thanks

I found Werkstatt's to be a bit more reflective then the klasse twins. Not sure about durability though. Not to mention AJT is a lot more user friendly when compared to SG.

Prime and AIO are similar in use and look; AJ and SG are slightly different in that AJ is easier to use (imo) and looks much deeper; less "sealant-y", it's still wet and reflective, but it has an almost carnauba quality about it.

I haven't used AJ on a lot of colors yet, black, white, and silver; however at this point it's my favorite looking sealant. Compared to the poorboys ones it's more work to remove (ex and ex-p are effortless, even in sun), however I find it looks much glossier and wetter, even on black. EX might be better at hiding some marring though.

Durabilty is still a question mark for me, but reports are that it lasts as long as SG.

Cheers.
