http://www.autopia.org/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=28797&stc=1http://www.autopia.org/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=28798&stc=1So I wanted something to not to replace 845 but to use in colder weather because 845 is such a pain in the ass to use in colder temps. Also I`m a big fan of Wolfgang sealant any way I`m not one to chase the shine and waste money I like to find something that works and stick with it. Seems like a few here really like it, and it`s officially endorsed by Shawnf350. I will say it goes on easy and comes off just as easy, hard to say as far as pop or shine being overcast here in sunny south jersey. If it holds up I may just retire 845 we`ll see how it hold up and plays out.

Same here. I guess they dont have a liquid version?
Looks great, I would add a second coat and you should be in good shape for quite a while.

I`ll pass the credit to Accumulator. He should be a distributor and sell it directly from his garage.

It makes a great wheel sealant also.

About how long did it take you to do your truck?

FK1000P has been my winter wax for over 9 years now. Two coats in Oct. usually makes it till March. If the weather permits, I do try to top it with Optimum Spray Wax.

My crew probably an hour, no rush cold beer in hand.

Very true if you put in on THIN, THIN, THIN!! Takes me about an hour total--apply by hand about 30 minutes then allow it to haze then 30 to remove including the wheels and barrels. While I`ve never used a coating I`ve watched allot of videos of coating behavior with water and the FK1000 seems to act in the same way--water just jumps off the surface.

There`s just something about applying a wax/sealant from a pot, it puts me into a zen state.
