What are some thoughts on AMMO`s products?
Are they any good?
Is there anything they make better than anyone else? http://i561.photobucket.com/albums/ss51/irishrifles2/hmm2.gif (http://s561.photobucket.com/user/irishrifles2/media/hmm2.gif.html)

Expensive boutique brand, but delivers great results. Not very economical if you`re running a busy business. I`ve tried everything from Larry except his interior products, reflex, & wheel wax. Everything smells awesome too.
Foam - good soap, but $$
Hydrate - very similar to Adam`s Guard & Gloss, but it may cause streaking if you apply it directly to the paint, especially dark colors. I haven`t found a better drying aid since. Not so friendly with coatings.
Skin - very similar to powerlock, but $$$
Spit - nice quick wax. has a deep red color so you need to be sure to buff it completely off, otherwise it`ll stick out like a sore thumb (unless you`ve got a candy red car or something)
Brute - wheel...soap? it cleans, but i never tried it on my paint
Plum - comparable iron remover to anything else on the market. pH neutral so it`s safe for paint.
Mud - AWESOME. Smells great, lasts for months on your tires, safe for plastics and other trim. The gel formula helps to eliminate sling. My favorite product by Larry.
Creme Wax - great show car wax, wipe on / wipe off application. Smells like big red
Boost - I was actually very surprised by this. I like adding a couple drops of this to my wash to help eliminate water spotting, and keeps the suds going in your wash.
I have his Leveling Fluid & Jeweler`s Polish from before he discontinued them...simply put, they are a great compound & polish combo. He said he wasn`t happy with them and wanted them to be more like M105 & M205, but it`s been about two years since he pulled them. I`m afraid to use up my bottles in fear that they`ll never be back.
BTW i think you should be posting these questions not in the review section...

I pretty much agree with everything cf2121 said. I am currently using everything except for Gelee. I love his products, they honestly aren`t as expensive as everyone says in my opinion. If you break down roughly how many cars you get per bottle(If your using the correct amount and not blowing half a bottle on one car), the difference in price isn`t that great.
Reflex is by far his best product in my opinion. A coating that delivers protection and shine for up to a year?!? AND you can put it on trim?!?! Yes please!

Do you try to search? I see you are asking about single brands in different posts. Sometimes a search for a couple different terms can really help, there are TONS of topics and multiple discussions on just about any product you can shake a stick at on here. You could probably binge search for a week. lol

Thanks for your input! Even though it wasn`t all that wordy, it was to the point and gave me a nice understanding. I don`t see much on Ammo products. But that`s likely because the cost factor drives me away, so I don`t bother looking for reviews. :)

VERY true! Been there and done that.
wife: [sleepy voice] Are you still looking at reviews?
me: shh shhh... [whisper] go back to sleep

And you haven`t found out everything there is to know about every Opt product available? Weird. Ammo is less talked about since it`s not sold here so that`s understandable.

That should have said CarPro not OPT sorry
From my pov, larry has very high standards and It wouldnt suprise me if his products are the best he could develop.
If you watch his video on Obsessed Garage channel you will learn a lot about Larry and his processes. This video is over an hour long.

You lost me:huh:
I haven`t looked into CarPro stuff, except IronX type stuff, and Essence. Oh and glass polish and gloss pads :)
Not sure if you were thinking I was Dispatch?

Mud is my favorite tire dressing, have been using the same bottle for years seems like it lasts forever.
