BLACKFIRE Interior Protectant- 4 different looks to suit your needs.

[Todd@RUPES]

BLACKFIRE Interior Protectant features a formula that can be altered in application to give you four looks, ranging from a dark, natural finish, to a rich semi-gloss look.

From least to most shinny:

Dark, Natural Finish- Apply Interior Protectant with a microfiber applictor, working into the surface. Allow it to set for approximately 1 minute, then mist the surface with water and wipe dry with a microfiber cloth.

Dark, Satin Finish- Apply Interior Protectant with a microfiber applicator, working into the surface. Allow it to set for approximately 1 minute, then buff with a microfiber cloth.

Dark, Rich Finish- Apply Interior Protectant with a microfiber applicator, working into the surface.

Dark, Semi-Gloss Finish- Apply Interior Protectant with a microfiber applicator, working into the surface. Allow it to set between 3 to 5 minutes, then apply a second coat.

In pictures: To demonsrate the effects of the different application methods and their outcome I applied Interior Protectant using the methods above on my car.

First I cleaned the dash with BLACKFIRE Interior Cleaner.

Then I taped off for seperate sections.

I applied Interior Protectant, according to the directions above, working from right to left (natural finish on the right, glossiest finish on the left).

The results (or different looks) are more dramatic in person due to the camera`s metering system. However a different look can be discerned from each picture. From most to least shiny.

I created this graphic, based on the pictures I have, to such the expected difference in looks using each application method.

very interesting. glad someone came out with a product that can give so many different looks. this will keep the confusion of which product to use for what kind of look customer wants

[rzatch]

That is very nice to have the options with just one product. I like certain areas of my interior to have different shine levels.

[classofshine]

I like this, even better then diluting the product to fit you needs. Now you can get all you shine out of 1 bottle.

[Bunky]

It seems after the fact somewhat obvious but it does need to be mentioned when people compare the sheen.

Now, we know why some say brand x is glossy and another says it is not and neither is wrong.

I will say I am usually a one coat dry buffer (OCDB).

Nice demonstration of how the product works and the options. Keep the information on the new and updated products coming. My initial order continues to grow.

Another new Blackfire product that I need to buy, thanks a lot!

[TroyScherer]

Nice... I do like the fact that you can have 4 different looks from the same product... It will make it that much more versatile.

[holland_patrick]

WOW excellent looks.. i wounder if you could do this with other products???

[classofshine]

Thanks Todd for taking the time to put these introductions together. You didnt just release the product and say have at her! I enjoying seeing these intros explaining the products. Really helps me figure how it will fit what I do and what I am looking for.

Thanks for the graphic Todd. It`s nice to know I can get multiple looks out of just one product.

[Blacktruckowner]

Products like this make life a little easier not having to buy a bunch of different products to get different shines.

OCDB appeals to me on the charcoal interior in my Fusion.

The OC appeals to me on the gray leather interior in my wife`s car.

You can actually create a two-tone interior even though it`s the same color.

Great demonstration of the different looks that can be achieved with just one product.
