Hey guys, I just got my can of Pinnacle Synergy and Black Label Cleansing polish yesterday. I couldn't wait so I tried it out.
Unboxing pics. Comes very well packaged with a nice gold plush micro/foam applicator and a cool little silk baggy to hold the wax in.
The test car is my personal 06 Torrid Red GTO that I just did a complete sand/buff on last week(See link below) Right around the time I was getting ready to start the sanding project I read Todd's review over here on Autopia about this product. I was really torn between a coating or a wax. Seeing as I like to wax and am a LSP ##### kinda, I went for the Synergy.

Seeing that the car was already clean, I went and gave it a QD to get all the dust off. Next I put a black foam CCS finishing pad on my DA and used the BL surface cleansing polish just to make sure the surface was prepped, just like you would a coating. The polish went right on and wiped off with ease.
To apply the Synergy I used the supplied yellow foam applicator. I had no issues with it although I know some have. Before applying I made sure to prime the pad. Once primed all it took was a light dab and onto the next panel. The Synergy went on real nice and was easy to keep thin, which is the key. Do to cooler weather I was able to apply it to the whole car without fear of it drying to fast/hard. Removal was a breeze with the gold micro. It wiped clean off with no streaks.
I did notice like someone else stated that it left the surface a bit tacky at first and then after a little bit it got slicker. After the first coat I went to bed then woke up early and applied the 2nd coat per instructions.
I haven't been able to test out any beading yet, but it did seem to give the red a nice glassy look. Tough to describe. Sorry for the crappy pics, but this is all I have so far. Hope this helps!!!
