I'd reccomend the 105/AW combo over Blackfire. I've never used Blackfire but for what it is it's overpriced. 105 will be more durable and AW is fantastick looking. Put the extra money in your pocket. If 105/AW dissapoints then step up to Zaino.

No offense intended but how do you make a qualified recommendation between two products when you haven't even tried one of the products?

I've used the BF sealant.

I found the ease of use, look, and slickness very good. However, durability was so poor, I could not use it again.

I've have the Sealant, Gloss Enhancing Polish and the soap wash. while their look is comperable to anything else out there, their durability is beyond poor.

Right there's your answer. I don't have to use a product when I can read others experiences. Blackfire isn't much different than every other silicone based sealant. Other similar products exist at much better price points. Tropicare, Poorboys, Duragloss etc.

Buy some Blackfire and then post your results. I ain't gonna waste my money on it.

BlackFire I've got. It's the AquaWax I don't have in order to make a qualified recommendation.

Aquawax is very nice. Reflective and a bit warm. Plays nice over just about anything. Easy 4 weeks durability. For a final product it's hard to beat for the $$$.

This is my 02cent. I have both and they are both very good in appearance. WG is definity one of the wettest/slickest LSP that I have tried (EX, DP, Zaino, einzett, UPP, DG). I use it on my black car that is outside 24/7. Its durability is definitly below avg., but it takes me no time to put another layer. I put three layers and maintain with DG AW. It has lasted two months so far.

Now DG 105/AW also is really deep and wet looking (similar to z2pro/z5 but slightly deeper imo. Mind you I have not used the z5pro). WG is slightly easier to apply and maybe more wet looking? That is real hard to tell, because sometimes it seems my burgundy/red car with 105/AW is more wet. Definitly much more durable than WG.

If you already have WG, just get the DG line and try it, very reasonable priced. I probably will switch to DG once my WG is empty.

Be sure and get the FC&S man I really like that stuff.
This weekend at the car show I used it over Pinnacle Souveran it cleans good and really leaves the surface slick. When you clean with it you can see the difference in the shine.
