    Quick Review: Blackfire Wet Diamond All Finish Paint Protection

    Hello all, better late than never. I was given a couple of new formula Blackfire products to write reviews on. Sadly the weather hasn`t been the greatest and neither has time for me. I previously used the new formula of Blackfire Wet Diamond AFPP but forgot to take pictures after using it. Well this weekend I had a returning customers` Tahoe and decided I would snap a couple pics for my review.

    Since this is a quick review let me just say this, I like the tweaked formula better. I have experienced zero dusting with this product after two uses, ease of use is outstanding, and the slickness is something that really stands out to me. I mean instantly after removing the product the paint is crazy slick!

    Just a couple pics this time around, first the product:



    The paint was prepped with Optimum Hyper Spray Polish via Optimum 5.25" micro fiber polishing pad and Griot`s Garage DA on speed 5, then cleansed with CarPro Eraser.

    And the afters:





    Catching the sun just right:





    When I dropped off the vehicle the owner kept saying that it looked awesome and couldn`t believe how slick the paint was. If I remember correctly he shook my hand 4 times while saying thank you so much, it just looks awesome. I told him in a couple weeks if he doesn`t mind I would like the vehicle back to try out a couple new products - Solution Finish for the running boards, Blackfire Wet Diamond Polymer Spray, and Blackfire Crystal Seal. If he has the time I will do a review on those as well.

    Well this concludes my "quick review" of Blackfire Wet Diamond All Paint Protection. If you don`t have a bottle, do yourself a favor and order it. You won`t be disappointed. Thanks for looking.

    Richard

    Thanks for the review Richard. What would you say is the most convincing factor to get the new version vs the old?

    For me, no dusting. I used the old formula several times and each time it dusted and clogged the micro fiber towels. Both are slick, both produce a beautiful finish, both are easy to use, but the lack of dust is the winner for me. Hope this helps a little.

    Thanks Todd! I`m not going to lie, I didn`t plan to buy the Polymer Spray or Crystal Seal any time soon until I delivered this vehicle. It was the owner`s reaction that made me decide that I`m not going to wait. He has agreed to the product testing so look for another review.

    You`ll love the Polymer Spray !!! Used it for the second time this weekend and think I`ll be buying this stuff by the gallon!

    I planned to eventually pick some up, wasn`t going to skip it all together. But now it`s higher on my list of things to try.

    When you guys say no dusting, it still has to be buffed off due to drying to a haze, right?

    Very nice. Did you apply by hand or machine?

    Yes you still have to wipe off the hazed over product but you don`t have much dust being pushed into cracks and crevices, it stays on the towel.

    I applied by machine where it would fit and by hand where it wouldn`t. I used a crimson HT pad.

    Is there also an improvement in its durability?

    Yes. Wet Diamond is still the traditional sealant in the BF line up.
