anybody here use hi temp products like there lite cut polish and wet look tire dressing, they look like they have many different items in there line. any good?
I ve tried light cut and boat wash and wax. It a good product but, my personal preference is to use it on light cars only. While it works well by getting rid of swirls, it also leaves me wanting more shine. I would try and follow it with a good glaze and wax. THe boat wax really works well on dirty boats. It took me no time to clean a 37` Sea Ray.
Oh, and pwer prep which is the next step up in aggressiveness, I don`t like.

I really like the Light Cut, i have a white car, and for me it is an amazing product, especially for the price, i would rank it miles ahead of meguiars # 9 which is the same type of product.

Light Cut, unlike Meguiars #9, is not a filler. Light Cut can be used by hand, with an orbital, but it really comes to life when used with a rotary at about 1500 RPM`s.
Here is a car I did today with Light Cut, Vanilla Moose and then topped with Pizzazz Carnauba.

The Grape tire dressing leaves a very wet shine. To wet and shiny for my likes. It smells great, like an intense grape soda pop so never leave it around small kids!!
It also lasts a good while but it can also attract road grime because it stays wet for a long time.

I don`t know of any dressing made by Hi-Temp with that name. They have the Grape, Premium and a water based dressing.
If you are looking for a low to medium "sheen" then use the water based dressing. I forget the name but call Irene at Top of the Line www.topoftheline.com and ask her about it.

I do believe that they are both solvent based and the Grape has the more "wet" look of the two.
