Not yet.



I'm the poor kid who oogles over new products but can't afford to try/test them.



I do have poli-seal, which is comparable from what they say.
 
I just got a bottle last week. Haven't had a chance to go through all my pictures on my digital camera but here is one from my phone of the black 240SX I used it on:

Polished with OHP and an Optimum microfiber polishing pad, then GPS using another microfiber polishing pad. Really wasn't enough sun to check for correction ability (car is for sale anyway, owner didn't want to spend too much on it) but it did leave the finish looking very deep and wet. Slickness was decent, not quite as slick as Poli-Seal though. I'll be playing around with it more over the next few weeks.
 
It might be that "AIO" that does give a *few* months of protection, which is hard to get with many AIO's now. I am excited to try it, when I get the chance down the road.
 
I finally got to try mine out. Some thoughts:

-Great working time
-Ok cut for what it is
-No dusting
-Fairly slick
-Wax like looks

-Mutes flakes
-Hard to balance product usage between too much and too little
-Gums up pad if overused
-Leaves a smeary mess if too much is used.
-Little cut if you don't use enough.

Overall I'm not sure if I like the spray concept, frankly it sucks on a windy day. The only way I would use this stuff again is if it lasted 4+ months and I know it won't. Poliseal is a better product and cheaper. There are also better products than Poliseal.

This is really a product that can be great if you master it but I'm not sure it's worth the effort for me.
 
I think it may have been tweaked recently. Got a new bottle about a month ago and its stunningly easy to use. Very slick, glossy and on single stage paint, eats oxidation like a compound.

My GPS is about a year old, so it's not the most current formula.  I find the application/removal easy enough, but I get some hazing/micro marring whether using it by hand or DA.  Some additional work time with the DA or a different pad may clear it up.  Still, I'm not crazy about the product.
