Re: I just ordered Vintage

Well... i respect your opinions along with a few other guys on here that love it. It seems like everyone who owns it loves it and just a few people don't think it could make that much of a difference do they don't bother looking at it. I think what i'm going to do it just start saving and in a few year maybe i'le own one.

Re: I just ordered Vintage

Thanks calgarydetail
Picus, another great thread thanks for the info!
I have 2 bottles of Swissvax Quick finish, I got to tell you I am having a hard time finishing
1 bottle of it, the mist is so fine that after using it for over 3 months weekly I did not even finish half the bottle!

never tried this, but can quick finish be used on a wet surface to aid in drying?
I know I had a hard time with it with streaking when I first got it but I learned that
I need 2 towels, 1 to apply the quick finish and spread, the other is to follow up quickly
before it dries.

I will be ordering vintage next this in the morning after calling them by phone and
placing the order! pictures to come I promise!

Re: I just ordered Vintage

I havent used cf on a wet finish. Honestly, I have no problem drying my car with one good mf ww, so I just dry it then do whatever it is I am going to do.

I agree on how little you need to use. I have one of the larger bottles and I haven't even put a dent in it yet.

FWIW, I am not trying to promote vintage, it's a big investment and not for everyone. For me I think it will be well worth the money, but everyone goes about this sort of thing differently.

Re: I just ordered Vintage

^ Both well said. Hey calgary I was wondering if you can do me a favor and whenever you do wash it get some bead shots. If you dont thats cool but some of the beading shots I've seen are ridiculous.
