The difference is that this one actually POLISHES and then leaves durable protection behind. This AIO (all in one) type product you are looking for is hard to make, as most polishes will cancel out a wax or protectant. You can get this very inexpensive at Top of the Line (www.topoftheline.com) I paid $24 for a gallon because it was so good. Our fellow member Anthony Orosco uses this all the time and turned me onto it.

Hey Nick, do you know anyone else carry Hi Temp products since TOL doesn`t ship outside North America ?

Try the Hi-Temp website, but I am not sure. You might have to call either one of the companies. I know TOL is the only company in the states allowed to sell Hi-Temp, so choices are limited. Speaking to someone (i.e. Irene at TOL) might smooth things up to ship overseas. :dunno

If worst comes to worst, I bought a gallon and I`m sure I can get you some of it over there.

I did email to Irene about shipping overseas and somehow they stopped doing that and just concentrate on North America ,not sure why they ignore a segment of the market:dunno

I`ll keep that in mind Nick, I was thinking of where to get my suppy of TS when it runs out actually since PAC stops carrying them ,as well as trying their grape tire dressing and pizzaz and... TOL does have lots of interesting products tho.

Cheers Nick

I just got my 32oz. of Grape Tire in, along with another canister of TS. Pizzaz is a sweet carnauba paste as well. If you ever have problems with shipping, your a good guy and I wouldn`t mind getting it to you.

Cheers Nick, appreciate the gesture.

To Jason, sorry I kinda hijacked the thread, my bad:wait , anyway I ordered PWC to use on my daily beater , can`t wait to try it out and see how well it works getting rid of diesel stain :jump

What`s the curing time on that PPG?

PPG air cures in 36 hours

are there any good sealants that will take a wax almost immediately?

Just to give another perspective, I tried some HiTemp polishes and did not like them at all compared to the SSR`s. They were very gummy and hard to remove. Just thought I`d add a different POV.
The smell is also SUPER solventy, unpleasant to work with for my taste. PB`s bubble gum smell is much better

Clearkote VM (my current 1 step obsession)
Meguiar`s NXT
Meguiar`s ColorX
Gliptone Probuff
Klasse AIO

Haven`t tried PwC but would like too

What particular product did you try. One of the things I noticed when using the Hi-Temp products is that while they are thick, they need to be worked in well. They do have diminishing abrasives, and works very well with the PC. They also contain the right amount of oils for removal to be easier. As for your troubles, a gummy type removal means:

a) Too much product
b) needs to dry longer
This equals to being a pain to remove!

That is an interesting point of view though. I did notice that weather plays a larger factor in these products. You are abolutely right that they smell like chemicals. This is a factor that they are changing soon I hear. PB`s products overall are easier to work with and smell great!
