Please report back on the wax! Looking forward to it. I bet if it had the same marketing and hype as Fuzion, it would sell just as much (assuming it doesn't).



CMA has fallen a bit off the radar for some reason. I've made out great with their good deals section with added discount and free shipping. For example, you could have gotten (if you wanted of course) the Black Fire tire gel instead of the EF Sapphire brand. I bought it steeply discounted when they had it in 32oz sizes. I also bought the Spray Gloss you got on closeout but for some reason it isn't there anymore. Mine isn't Poly Charged though.



BLACKFIRE Long Lasting Tire Gel (Close Out)



The AG SRP is a favorite of Accumulator and many of our friends on the other side of the pond in the UK.



I've had HORRIBLE experiences with those pads with the velcro backing coming off while cleaning them and when brand new during polishing! Hopefully they have improved on them. Beware, if one fails, RETURN them all! Since all the velcro came off on mine, I use the white and black ones like ghetto-ized Schmitts and clean my wheels, bumpers and rocker panels with them. Great way to recycle them and get some sort of use out of them!
 
I've used the Blackfire wet ice combo. Good stuff, both are easy to apply and remove, no dust at all. You can let the sealant sit on the vehicle anywhere from 15 minutes too 2 hours with no issues with removal. I've always gotten excellent service from CMA
 
Nice purchase David. I can't wait to hear what you think of the Blackfire. I can remember using the first verison of the Blackfire sealant years ago.

Check out the left corner of the table. :chuckle: Look familiar?! Part of my collection back in 2005.

The case is a nice touch. I'm curious why did you opt for CCS pads with all the negative/neutral reviews about them?
 
Nice collection Spilcy!



LC CCS is pretty much the only foam pads I like using right now and I've been waiting to try out the Constant Pressure style pads too.

Nice haul David. We used these products on the Boxer when we worked on it last month. The Wet-Ice kit looked very good on that red. I liked the tire gel as well. The gold CCS pads are great for applying LSPs. You use very minimal product. Let us know what you think after you get to try them out.

I've used the pads with no issues. Looks like a good purchase and they provide great service. If you have an issue they will make it right. Nice purchase!

Yeah, I'll be interested to hear your take on the SRP. The scent will probably be a love it/hate it sort of thing....keep the stuff off trim.



Noting that it "shouldn't layer" (scare-quotes intentional ;) ) due to the cleaners and (very, very mild) abrasives, you might try experimenting with two applications, spaced ~24 hours apart, with the second one applied *very* gently.



Oh..and that Midnight Sun is on my short-list as a possible replacement for Souveran on the Jag, so I'll be interested in your take on *that* as well. I'd use it over the SRP for that application.
 
The BF clay cleaner and extender has killed every brand of clay I've tried it on. It will make it crumble and fall apart. After a while it was hard to knead it back into one piece. It became more like a bunch of little pieces sort of stuck together.



It sits on the shelf now.

Maybe it's only meant to work with their clay? :think:



I've been wanting to pick up some SRP as well. Have a few people wanting a wash n wax but no polish, so this might be the trick to making them look their best.
