what is HD Poxy ?

I thought I saw somewhere that the durability is better now. That would probably be the only area where it could be improved because I already love it's looks and ease of application
 
I like it, doesnt stain trim, and is stupid easy on and off...used it all of december, little goes a long way



menzerna powerlock is just as easy on and off, and doesnt stain trim either, been using it for the last month, little goes a long way



BFWD, I got decent durability, but nowhere near what other people get...maybe 2-3 months at most before a noticeable lack of slickness and gloss.

FK1000 lasts longer in all this rain, but look wise fk is a 1 and poxy is a 10! I use the pc or flex 3401 to apply, 8 to 10 tiny dots is all one needs to cover a vehicle. I deliberately put it on trim to get that new look.

I've use FK1000P for a long time, still use it as a winter sealant on clients cars. It withstands repeated touchless car wash chemicals. The looks are not that bad Thomas, lets me fair my friend. Poxy is VERY easy to use, on black, red its wonderful looks. I would rate FK a 5 in looks and a 9 in Durability when comparing to Poxy. Poxy has not lasted as long as FK in similar tests of chemical cleaners.

I just really love the look of poxy, but you are right 1000 isn't a 1. Maybe byitself. Over a polished surface, it deserves a 5. I really like the thick clear look of it on lighter colors



Here is #1000 on this car over UNO/HD FINISH that I did recently. With Poxy, it would look so different, but the owner wanted lasting protection - he sees me twice a year

FWIW, agree with above. I love Poxy - so easy to use, can go on anything, doesn't stain, lasts a good long time. I put it on my wifes Mini before winter, still going strong (about 5 months now); doesn't bead much when dirty but beads like nuts when clean. Looks super slick; my clients all seem to really like the look and ease of cleaning. I love that I can apply it in all of 10 minutes. On the other hand FK does seem to last through harsher conditions better, but it's some sort of wacky alien stuff. :)

BFWD was my go-to sealant, easy to use - heck - even I couldn't screw it up! But, after using Poxy, I doubt I'll buy anymore BFWD. BFWD does have a few minor issues, whatever pad you use to apply will be useless for anything else, there's NO cleaning it. BFWD does leave a white stain on trim, it's not that difficult to remove though.

Wow. I was considering trying BFWD,but now you have me looking towards Poxy! This product sounds great!
 
Just like I said, simply the best in every aspect.

Okay I had to find the closest Poxy thread and bump it. I just wanted to give my review. I've been detailing for 1 year have spent a heffty amount on almost everything detailing related including 10-15 types of sealants and waxes. I have all the big names, Klasse BlackFire Chemical Guys Worlds Best Wax Permanon Platinum Cquartz Aquartz...yada yada yada... Most sealants I have used give me a slick and glossy look. I got Poxy in a purchase for free and really didn't know what it was about. I always thought people were shilling for HD because it owned Autopia but POXY has given my mom's white accord a warm glow I have never seen before. Durability has yet to be tested but Poxy is totally underrated. Next to try is UNO!



By the way this is on a white accord
 
Glad you like it. You will love UNO also. Can be purchased at the Autopia Store or here Car Guy Garage: Storage, Cabinets and Organization ... After you use it give us a shout back and let us know how you like it. POXY & UNO are very under rated and they come at a great price....

I suspect hamza7 just meant that he figured people here are inclined to say nice things about the site owner's products, as opposed to him making a genuine accusation of "shilling". I think the whole "shill" thing gets used a little loosely without a malicious intent.



Gee, at least I hope so!
 
I've tried Poxy and Uno a couple of times and they are just "ok" for me. Poxy is easy to apply and looks nice, but doesn't have the slickness of something like PS and the durablilty is nothing to write home about. I got a little over a month out it on both my Tacoma and the wife's RX350. I'm still messing with UNO. The first time I tried it I think I used too much because it gummed up my pads. I got decent cut out it, but still had to reach for M105 for the tougher spots. For me, the jury is still out on UNO. Poxy is just like a dozen other LSP's in my garage.

If it gums up you've used WAY too much. Less is more with UNO. Cuts best when very little is used. It sounds counter-intuitive but that's how it works. Clean the pad with compressed air after every panel and you'll have few issues. Sometimes you don't even need to add more UNO.

I have several dozen LSPs and I haven't found that. I find it's quite unique in its gloss/reflectivity and has its own look.
 
I agree with Alfisti. I have all kinds of waxes from Vintage, PS, Vic, yada yada and sealants BFWD (the closest to Poxy), Zaino, Duragloss, yada,yada...... Poxy has a special look on my vehicle. JMO..........

Used Poxy again last weekend and man the look it left was great. I just enjoy how easy it is to use. I used an AIO for a quick detail but it was a pain to remove so I went over the entire car with Poxy using a black BS pad and my GG DA, left it on while I dressed the tires and did some misc things. Wiped it off with a Silver Surfer MF from Pakshak and it removed my troublesome AIO.

Thanks Accumulator, I didn't mean shilling as the true definition. Just people say nice things about places they are at, in this case the "House of HD" Autopia. To be honest I haven't heard of 3D much on many other forums and I just realized they existed when they started sponsoring my home forum. They really need to get out there, they have many under-rated products.
