[Brian_Brice]

is this hyper dressing? couldnt find hd so i figured they might have renamed it, anyhow at 38dollars a gallon im giving it a whirl.

No, it is not the same as Hyper dressing.



Go to www.autodetailingsolutions.com they have ALL the Meg's lines at wholesale prices.

is the silicon free intended on exterior trim/plastic only? if so i dont think i need a replacement for my ext dress. i was hoping itd tackle tires as well but if not im not interested in it.

You should be able to use it as a general purpose, ready to use dressing.



Hyper is a bit more flexible since you can dilute it to achieve the shine to your liking.

so hows it look on tires gback?

No idea. i've been told that it's really good for engines/wheel wells though because it dries to a hard finish.

 

[Brian_Brice]

Meguiar's Silicone-Free Dressing is the choice for professionals looking for a high performance dressing which can be used in any silicone sensitive environment. Its VOC compliant formula produces an incredibly deep, rich high gloss shine on all exterior rubber and plastic surfaces.

silicon free?



I'd imagine you'd want to avoid anything with silicon in it, that might be abrasive or something.....

The silicone-free dressing was created for body shops that also did some detailing work (imagine you spending 3g+ on a paint job that looks awesome but your car has brown tires). I used all-season on exterior surfaces (after 2 weeks, it seems to be holding up) and hyper dressing on the interior. I also bought poorboys trim restorer/dressing as it claims to make wax on trip go away plus shine it. I will compare the two when i get time.



I have been satisfied with both hyper and all-season. There is really no reason to get silicone-free dressing unless you work in a body shop environment as it was created to cater to this market. Most dressings contain silicone (petroleum distiallates) so don't let that be a concern. In fact, I'm sure this is where the durability of a tire/interior shine comes from, though I am not a chemist.

so wait - why again can body shops not use silicone?

Silicone on a surface will prevent paint from sticking and flowing out properly. It’s a bad idea to even bring anything with silicones into a paint shop. It’s a very, very bad idea to be spraying anything with silicone around a paint shop.
