    Pontiac G8 Detail

    Another CG detail from Vital Car Care
    Pontiac G8
    Clean finish, crazy color(I love this color), and upkept by a car-passionate owner. Nice finish, just needed a little pro-level love and some nice year-long protection.

    Very nice glossy finnish. Did you do one or two coats of the Jet seal and how is the durability?? I`ve heard mixed reviews.

    Re: Pontiac G8 Detail

    We do 2 coats. But my personal vehicle I use 1 coat per year. Machine application makes it easy to apply 1 even uniform coat when using a good soft LSP pad.

    I have found it to last quite a while! I had a mustang that I neglected purposefully to get some durability testing out of, and even a little over a year was still getting beading and only did an OCCASSIONAL (like maybe 3 in a year) waterless washes and only protection it saw from the elements of the Gulf Coast of Florida by sometimes parking under a carport...no garage.

    Like any sealant you want a CLEAN surface before application to ensure a lasting protection. Then from there its all about LSP, the more you keep a layer of wax on top you get the protection and the added warmth of a wax over a sealant.

    Thanks, I have two bottles of it but have only used it once and didn`t leave it on long enough to do much of an evaluation myself. I think maybe two weeks before I applied something else. I may have to revisit it once the weather warms up.

    We used to use a similar pump for degreasers and what not, but they just dont live up to the task. The atomizer pumps for the ecosmart are fantastic and at ~$25 it is totally worth it.
