In 2010`:
Blackfire Wet Diamond with Polycharger - 16 oz x x1 x x$29.99

I have sinced moved on to coatings but man,when I did use this sealant

BFWD rocks. The gradual price hike does suck but still a great sealant for $40.00

**Bunky** · 12-23-2012, 06:13 AM

Wow. I had not realized the price had gone up.

Yeow! Me either......Great stuff but $40.00?

Probably the best looking and easiest sealant to use for the money.

No doubt about it Pat, one of the nicest I`ve used....

Same as everyone - I hadn`t realized that the price had gone up so much, I`m still on the bottles I bought when PAC closed.

To me, BLACKFIRE Wet Diamond represents a tremendous value. It goes on so thin with so little product usage that you should be able to get more than 40 coats out of a bottle. If you apply it with a gold jeweling pad and a PC you can almost double that amount as 3 small drops will cover 1/4-1/5 a normal sized car.

Or, you can just get free 2oz samples every time you place an order from Auto Geek. Each 2 ounce sample should do a car a few times. I`ve never paid for BFWD, I have a ton of those little sample bottles all over.

I used to do that for WGDGPS 3.0. Time to switch over to BFWD.

I can remember testing BF shortly after its debut. Tested in Jan 2002. My thread is still on the other Autopia site, pictures of the test car are no longer available.

I liked it then, but it is a completely different product now and I have become a die hard fan. The changes are awesome and the products work great for me.

Over the last few years I had settled into a regular routine with a few products that were meeting my needs. July of this year I got the bug to catch up on some of the newer products hitting or on the market and BF quickly went to the top of my favorite list.

On a side note the customer service provided by this site is the best!

The formula has been improved (4 times) since its debut, way back in `01/`02. Thanks for you support and opinion and most of all, WELCOME TO AUTOPIA FORUMS!

Just wondering, what is the shelf life of BFWD if kept at room temp? The stuff I have is in a clearish bottle and the blue dye always settles at the top. I shake it and it seems fine.

FWIW, I recently used a 8 year old bottle of BFWD and it worked fine. This is before Polycharger (TM) was added to the formula so the shelf life was longer. To err on the side of caution, I would say 2 years with Polycharger, although you will probably get far longer.

Polycharge messes with the shelf life that much? I would`ve thought it would make the product life longer.
