How do these products compare?





Nano Systempflege vs. Prime Strong



Versieglung Acrylwachs vs. Acrylic Jett



Kunststoffpflege vs. Satin Prot



Shampoo Konzentrat vs. Autobody Wash
 
Your going to get your you're best shine with turtle wax. it has a hard shell and it goes on easy. just rub it in with a micrfibro towel and let it stand for a couple of ours. then wipe the whole car down with a 100% cotton towel. i use a beach towel but anything will werk. if you need more information just let me no.
 
Hi,



You are making the wrong comparisons.



The Carlack line is similar to Klasses and i believe are the same products more or less. Some people will argue one lasts longers etc. but by and large you can hardly tell the difference.



Jeffs forumla is more an evolution on the Klasses/Carlack deal. If you read about Klasses then you get the same idea of what do to with Carlack.



Carlack needs time to flash before you can buff it, Jeffs is wipe on wipe off. Jeffs prime doesnt need to be applied with a moist applicator, i find it slight more user friendly.



The Carlack shampoo makes good value for money in the fact (atleast in the UK) its cheap for 1000ML. However, the Werkstatt smells nicer, rinses clearer, and is more lubie.



IMO, if you dont mind waiting Carlack and Klasses are fine. However, there plenty of more modern products that will give better results with less hassel.

Wow, that came back from the dead. I asked Werkstat the same question and got this response:



Thank you for contacting the Werkstat. We appreciate your interest in our products and the CL68 line.



Indeed, there is some overlap in function between the Werkstat line and the CL68 line due to chemical formulation similarities between some corresponding products. We represent the CarLack product line in the United States and we have also made use of their extensive detailing know-how in the development of the Werkstat line. So while not identical, when our goals for a Werkstat product coincided with CarLack's goals for a CL68 product, the resulting formulas do end up being in line.



Nano Systempflege vs. Prime Strong



These formulas are loosely based around a similar core chemical structure but ultimately differ fairly significantly. Prime Strong has a higher percentage of durable polymer components and also uses an incrementally more aggressive polishing agent. Overall, Nano is more similar to standard Prime. Nano Systempflege is perhaps a more balanced and rounded formula than Prime Strong which is focused a little more on the prepwork of cleaning and polishing. Nano is most often used as an independent 1-step whereas Prime Strong is most often used as a basecoat, followed with an additional layer of pure sealant.



Versieglung Acrylwachs vs. Acrylic Jett



These formulas are directly comparable, and we would not recommend purchasing both. Despite formulaic differences, their aesthetics and their function are still too similar to warrant having both on hand, in our opinion. AJT however makes a nice addition to Acrylwachs, as it does for standard AJ.



Kunststoffpflege vs. Satin Prot



Again, similar formulas, directly comparable, and we wouldn't see a necessity to have both on hand. Kunststoffpflege is slightly more matte and has modestly better cleaning abilities. Prot is a touch glossier and more protective.



Shampoo Konzentrat vs. Autobody Wash



Konzentrat is slightly stronger than ABW. ABW is balanced a bit more for use with natural wax products like CJ/CG as well as with synthetics like AJT while CL68 SK is focused only for use with the CL68 synthetic polymers in Nano and Acrylwachs.



Sometimes it does get into splitting hairs, but hopefully this has been of some help to you. If you have any other questions, please feel free to reply back.



Happy Detailing!

Sounds like the Workstaff line is good stuff. Tutle Wax also hs some good car wash. Put it in the bucket and add water. It don't get any easier than that. Workstaff vs. Turtle Wax studies have showwed that the turtle Wax leaves a hard shell finish. hard like diamonds.
