<HTML>How should I apply this sealant (finishing wax) I am assuming thin like usual also apply with either foam or cotton applicator .
Apply a section at a time or the whole care remove with microfiber or cotton towels guessing microfiber would be better.
Durability 3 or 4 months is this right.

<HTML>Put it on , thin coat is best, on the whole vehicle, and remove with a terry cloth or microfiber cloth or an orbital or a DA with a bonnett, etc.

Just get it on, thin coat, the longer it drys and cures, the longer it lasts.

And easier to remove when allowed to cure than not allowing it to dry and cure.

<HTML>I was going to edit my post since cannot will post again.

I am assuming that I do not need to apply autoint's One step Polish and sealant prior to the pure sealant for bonding purposes since Ketch did not mention it.

also cotton or microfiber with fieldcrest out of business Martel would be the only towel to use.

<HTML>Whether or not you use the OEM, new name One Step Polish and Sealant, before applying the Finishing Wax is up to you and the condition of the finish.

The use of both is like using the Klasse Twins.

The OEM cleans, does light polishing and leaves a polymer finish.

The Finishing Wax, (actually a polyamino sealant) has no real cleaners as it was developed for the autobody trade and fresh paint.

By using both, you are polishing and protecting.

Using just the Finishing Wax, only protection and gloss.

<HTML>If you or a friend has ever considered getting an electronic paint thickness gauge, now is the time.

We got them on the website, the ETG-1, at an all time low price.

<HTML>You should contact the guy you bought it from.

LOL!

Buy hot goods, you get what you pay for.

Read the manual, recalibrate, then put in a new battery, if not send it to ProMotor Car for service.

<HTML>To get back on topic (cause my guage works fine), we like Finishing Wax just fine. Easy on, easy off, and pretty good durability.

Compares to Meg's #20, if that is relevant to you...

This is a fine product that delivers (important, cause not all do...)

Good Luck.

If it was easy, everybody'd be doing it!
RE: Autoint finishing wax

<HTML>Yes Jim comapring it Meg's 20 is about what I thought proabably about 3 months of durability .
I may try try the Finish Fast product to give it a shine boost where as the Wax just gives a deep lustrious sine.

Yes I do use Zaino but do not use ZFX cure accelerator nor any of the quick detailers they offer Z-6 nor Z-8 really cuts down on the expense but what gets me is paying for the carwash.

autoint's carwash is super very comparabe to P21S exept better than it.</HTML>

<HTML>Cured Finishing Wax, will provide protection for well over 6 months, it's a Polyaminosiloxane resin system.

The Fast Finish really layers nicely, and adds more protection each time it is applied.

I seldom wash my convert anymore, just Fast Finish it, same with my black Gran Marquis, and they are looking very nice, with no real work.

We have test vehicles running around the city that also have Fast Finish as their trim dressing/protectant, it's holding up on good trim in excess of 2 months.

I hope I don't have this wrong, but are you saying that I can apply the Fast Finish to my black trim without it turning white?

Sorry, I just realized that fast finish is not a wax. I couldn't edit my post.

Fast Finish is a polymer, however much different chemistry than Finishing Wax.

The Fast Finish works great on all trim as well as the paint, even the wheels.

I have also been using it as my interior dressing.

Apply the Finishing Wax to one side of the hood and Mother's California Gold Pure Carnauba Wax to the other side. Then let us know which shines best and lasts longest. That's the way to apply a new product !

Members:
So far, no one has posted a side-by-side test of Finishing Wax as I suggested above.
I gave the bottle I bought to a pro to try out. He used it but didn't like it. One member here has praised it. One said it doesn't hold its gloss but liked it.
What we need is a careful comparison test. If someone does one, please post.
Doug
