I spent quite a bit of time with this product on Firiday. I wanted to see how well it would apply with a PC and which pads work the best. Based on my trials, I now know what to send each tester for application purposes. I want each tester to apply the product in the same way (both hand and machine).
Rather than me further spoil testing with my thoughts, I am going to save comments until later. I will give each tester a number. They will be able to use this number to rate the product and make comments without the rest of the community knowing who made the comment. I think this blind rating will be best and remove the issues of "oh, you're biased to xyz product."

I have a magic marker that I apply to my paint. The marker is normally removed (50%) by washing it with Dawn or spraying it with any number of cleaners. When I apply RDF49 over the marker, Dawn and the cleaners don't break through and remove the marker stain to any %.
I can remove RDF49 with Prepsol.

Okay, all first round testers have been sent an email with ordering instructions.
I will post application instructions within the next 48 hours.
Testers will have the kits just in time for weekend fun

Could you PM me the beta testing of RD#49 ordering info. I am sure the e-mail is in the hospital spam blocker and I can not activate (deliver) remotely
TIA

Join Date: Apr 2003 Location: Atlanta, GA Posts: 172 | I know it's probably too soon to ask but 1) how soon could this product be available to all and 2) any idea on pricing? Has anyone (the chemists included) given an indication of how long the sealant would last on it's own (ex. outside 24/7 uncovered daily driver)? and lastly (sorry the questions kept coming) will this sealant be part of a system of products (wash, booster spray, etc)? Sounds intriguing thus far! | |
