Questions on maintaining a lease.

[Accumulator]

I forgot to say I liked the "tunnel of marring" phrase. It made me laugh..

Accum, what AIO do you recommend?

I`m tempted to say "whichever one you like best", but that doesn`t really answer it. Eh, I`m not up to speed on today`s offerings, but I like ZAIO if you want a little (VERY little) cut, or KAIO if you don`t need that. And Speed seems very popular with those who`ve tried it.

Actually I just realized, I`m looking for something easier than FK.

Heh heh, then I`m stumped! For some reason, I just hardly *EVER* find any LSP less-than-easy to use. Lucky me, but that doesn`t help you....sorry, I just never thought there was anything to using the FK, at least not if only doing it once/twice annually.

Maybe the Spray Wax/etc. approach *would* be worth considering. I never got around to doing the A8 with a real LSP, and after a few years of just OCWing it it`s still fine.

Hate to see you knock yourself out on a lease that goes back after a few years, but maybe it won`t be all that hard to keep something (in the right color) nice enough that it won`t bug you. I *am* confident that whatever qualifies as "good enough" for you will be more than OK for the lessor.

Hmm, cancoat is pretty expensive. How many cars will one can do?

I like the HydrO2 or McKees HydroBlue suggestion. No wiping at all.

thanks for all the comments. I`m thinking of giving Hryd02, cancoat, or mckees blue. Although for some reason the spray on and hose off bothers me. I guess I`m old school and feel like coatings should take a lot more work for it to be worthwhile.

From my experience it is worth every penny. Get it on sale.

You can get a few cars out of it.

CanCoat will be the most durable of these three. You can use one of the others to maintain it.

Be sure to rinse out the sprayer with warm water if you go with CanCoat.

Cancoat it is!!


So you mean when I`m done with the car, wash the sprayer with warm water?

Yes. Run hot water through it. If not the coating will harden and the sprayer is no good. There are others included in the package if that does happen. I still have my original sprayer and it works fine after being flushed out.

Wash it once in a while and hit it with your favorite spray wax. It`ll look better than 99.99% of the other lease returns.
