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.
