Review: HD Nitro Seal

**MrCLRider** · 08-29-2013, 04:51 PM

So I took 3D/HD up on their offer again. I splurged this time and went with Nitro Seal. I wanted to try this product because of all the positive feedback I have read on Facebook.

I like the way they packaged this product, it makes you feel like you are getting more of a deal for what you paid. I know the items that are included are easily acquired, but it is nice that it comes with everything you need. The only thing I would change is what type of container the A and B products are bottled in. After reading a few reviews I decided to transfer the contents of both to small plastic bottles with dropper tips on them. I think that kept me from using too much, but apparently I still did but we will come back to that later.

This morning I prepped the car for polishing with a strong mix of W99 and CG CWC in my foam canon that was left to dwell while I got my wash bucket ready with DG901. Car was rinsed and then dried off with my Vac n Blo and a waffle weave towel.

I used my Rupes 15 and some Speed with B&S MFFP and in a few spots I needed FG400 and a B&S MFCP. The reason for the polishing today was to correct some nasty swirls/marring from the body guy that fixed my drivers side doors from a hit and run we had back in 11`. The MFFP and and Speed did a really good job of cleaning up all the swirls. I continued around the car with the MFFP and Speed with just a few quick passes to amp up the gloss. The rest of the car was still 95% perfect from the proper wash techniques that I have used since the car was new.

After transferring the A and B parts to the different bottles I started with the application of part A using the supplied black foam pad. It went on in a way that reminded me of Opti-Seal. Right after completing the A step I went directly to the B step using a red wax applicator and my GG3". I used the GG because of a recommendation from Fech. He said it would help it go on really thin. After using the 3" GG I think I may have been better off using the 6" because I really didn`t care for that red wax applicator that was supplied with the 3". So earlier I mentioned that I may have used too much, well when trying to remove the combo I encountered quite a few high spots. After chatting with David Fermani it was determined that I used way too much of both product. I was able to knock down all the high spots after finding the right towel.

I only have two pictures to share which are immediately after removal of the product. These two pictures were taken with my SGSIII so they don`t really capture how glossy it looks in person. I will revisit in a few days after it has fully cured and I will try my best to take those pictures with my T3i.

I always tend to put more then needed when it comes to products like this. I honestly feel like I have enough remaining to do two more cars so I should be able to refine my process with this product by the 2nd car. I cannot comment on whether or not I am happy with this product yet. I will give my final comments after it is given the 48 hours to fully cure. Until then, thanks for looking at my review of the free product I was given for doing this review.

Car looks great!!! How do you like the B&S MF pads???

The B&S MF pads are a winner IMO. Maybe not as much cut as the Meg`s but finish so damn well.

Well it has been a few days now and I must say the gloss from this product is quite impressive. I don`t know that I will be able to capture it with my camera but it is just wicked how it has changed since the initial application. The flake is probably popping the best it has in a long time with Nitro Seal. Now we will just wait and see how long it lasts. My only plan for washing/cleaning is DG901 if doing a conventional wash or UWW+ if I`m doing a waterless wash.
