    Re: 5 Facts You Didn`t Know About BLACKFIRE

    1) BLACKFIRE Midnight Sun was originally designed to compete against Pinnacle waxes. The Midnight Sun vs. Souveran discussion was as heated as any debate between a Porsche and Corvette owner at the local coffee shop. As BLACKFIRE Midnight Sun evolved with Wet Diamond Polymers in batch 24, and the famous Wet-Ice over Fire was born, BLACKFIRE and Pinnacle loyalists learned to co-exist.

    2)Original formulas of BLACKFIRE Wet Diamond were acrylic based, similar to Klasse. After 3 years of research, the Wet Diamond “tri-polymer” system was perfected. These polymers work together to create a tightly knit layer of protection which reflects light in three different ways, giving BLACKFIRE products an unique look. The three different polymers create a unique surface texture that creates tight water beading and promotes maximum protection, including UV inhibition.

    3) The Wet Diamond Polymers were not added to BlackICE until relatively late in the development cycle of the product. One of the polymers simply wouldn`t work with the montan-carnauba mix. However, ongoing research and development allowed for them to work, and work perfectly creating a trifecta (montan, carnauba, polymers) of protection and gloss. The result has been outstanding, with some people reporting durability of over 8 months.

    4) Cars detailed with BLACKFIRE products have won two best in class awards at Pebble Beach, best paint at “The Quail” and Best In Show at Amelia Island. Additionally, over 30 Platinum Awards have been given to Ferrari`s at the Cavallino Concours.

    5) BLACKFIRE`s original "SRC" polishes were based on the very original scratch resistant formulas created by Menzerna for direct use in Mercedes Benz`s car factories. Years of BLACKFIRE`s experience with car lovers around the world have allowed improvements to the formulas, which are now made by BLACKFIRE.

    This was a good read the first time around. Glad to see it came back up.

    Another unknown fact:
    I actually gave myself Whiplash by having an uncontrollable urge to rubber neck looking at my car after applying Blackfire
