Wish I knew you wanted to try clutch. Got 3/4 of a gallon left. It works awesome on trim and been using it on my wheels. Makes them a lot easier to clean. You’ve just received the 3 coatings I’m most interested in Beadlock, Adams and 22PLE insane.

Anyone want to try some Clutch PM me and I’ll send you some. It’s a solid topper but got a big bottle PA Cosmic to use so no way will use all.

I was not going to buy clutch. The cart looked empty with just the coating. Hard to beat their 20% off sale during black friday.

First BF haul came today. Some refill products and some new to me. Looking forward to see the vinyl and leather cleaning brush and how it works. Has gotten rave reviews from those who have used this flatiron shaped brush. Also was surprised at the feel of the Sonax Extreme Mega Size Mf Towel. It`s a two sided with a low nap and just a little higher nap on the other side. And it`s very thick and dense for such of a mf towel. Of cause it where awesome prizes on them which is always nice. The plastic clay bar boxes was also great and maybe cause of they are made in USA :)

The weather conditions is good today so out and wash the Kia cee`d SW. And see how the Gyeon Wet Coat and PA Master Sealant is doing. Think that I will top the Master Sealant with High Gloss and maybe also the Wet Coat topped with High Gloss too or another coat of WC.

Every time I see someone unbox Reset I kick myself in the butt for never picking any up. Maybe come spring here in PA when it gets warm enough to do some outdoor washes I’ll be unboxing a bottle

I have gone through 2×1L bottles of Reset so far and it`s awesome! Would have been another 1L bottle but it where out of stock sadly. Have been out of for a while now but when used it yesterday again made me smile. Tac System Mystic Bubble is very simualar in the lubrication and cleaning ability from it but is scented with something and a blue dye. Reset don`t have any scent almost and is clear and just works great. Dilute it properly at 1:500 especially when you have a sealant of some kind and you can even dilute it weaker and still getting really great lubrication and cleaning ability from it. I have used it in 1:1000 A couple of times with almost the same feel to it. And the big benefit for me is that it leaves nothing behind as in protection and glossenhancers and also rinses very clean. Even after my prewash foam and PW clean rinsing it off it revived some beading back from all of the road salt and road film we have now here in Sweden. When rinsing off the Reset it where fully back and beading and sheeting from it as it should be. And with the high cleaning ability from it only a 2-3 passes is needed to get the paint clean. Those that looking for an awesome car soap should test out Carpro Reset and see how they like it. If you have a ceramic coating IMO it`s a no brainer to get it as it will keep your coating performance at a highest level all the time. Until it`s degrade and then you see when it`s time to top it up with something.

LMAO budgetplan! Yeah that part has been long gone with trying out different products. I have had both PA Esclate Lotion and Master Sealant and High Gloss at home for a long time now. Have just been waiting for when I have been able to polishing the car. Then since winter time is so harsh on the paint I decided just to polishing the hood and the roof with Esclate Lotion. And then 2 layers of Master Sealant for the winter protection. Was actually a little scared before and after the prewash foam and PW clean rinsing it that it where degraded performance already. But the Reset wash took it right back up to a great performance from the water behavior at least. Then I was so set on topping it with High Gloss and whent through with it. So the whole car has a fresh layer of High Gloss on it now. Even with a high humidity and a low temperature it was very easy to apply. Applyied it with a mf applicator and a crisscross pattern application. And the new and freshly washed Sonax Extreme Mf Towels worked great to wipe it off with. Just hope that 12h cure time is enough sitting in the garage. As the rain is pouring down today. So before heading out I must look so the 303 Rubber Seal Protectant has dryed also as it where not totaly evaporated and been sitting with the doors opened. Have had a problem with them to freezing shut with rain and then freezed on over the night so far this winter. Hopefully it helps me a little LOL. Looking forward to see the water behavior now when it`s raining. Will try to take some pictures of it :)

Exhaust tips on the Cayman are horrible, some kinda brushed, non-finished steel. Figure I`ll give this a try before getting out the sandpaper, polish compound bars and wheels.

Worth a shot as opposed to spending $600 on new tips...which I won`t do.

Are you sure they are not coated with something? Seems like unfinished steel would rust and be horrible to try to keep nice.

[atgonzales]

Budget, need a review on the Metal Cut please

[BudgetPlan1]

Are you sure they are not coated with something? Seems like unfinished steel would rust and be horrible to try to keep nice.Kinda a brushed outer finish which is `ok` but interior finish is kinda rough and this thing pumps out a lotta black soot which is just a PITA to clean out. Guessing it`s some kinda poorly finished stainless.

If polish doesnt help, will start sanding interior progressively. Worse case, goon it up and spend the $$ to get new. Nothing ventured, nothing gained!

Try a quick shot of some oven cleaner on the inside. used to do it to one of my bikes for years with no ill effects

Barkeeper`s Friend w/ a brush does nicely, but looking to get a smooth shiny surface which when coated should lead to a 90% `spray and go` cleaning.

Eh, got all winter to figure it out!

[atgonzales]

Look forward to the results....
