Blackfire Crystal Seal Done
Polished my car the other day and put on some Blackfire Crystal Seal today as per recommendation from Glen, thanks buddy! First of all, simple to use and the only word that comes to mind is awesome! I have been detailing for years, waxes, spray detailers, spray waxes, etc., but this stuff is just great. Key like Glen told me, use very sparingly, probably used 30 sprays at the most, covered everything including the windows and even the wheels. Wheels were a little bit of a pain, but I am glad I did them. Just makes the Garnet Red metallic paint pop even more, gives it a slick gloss look to the paint. I applied it my garage under some daylight fluroscent bulbs, makes it easier to see and make sure you are applying and removing any high spots, has a very nice smell to it as well, reminds me of a sweeter smelling Mequiars Spray Wax. Here is a few pics. Again thanks Glen for the great recommendation!

Nice! Is that one coat? You can lay on a 2nd and get a glass look.

Thanks! This stuff is really amazing, thought about doing a ceramic coating, but my car is garaged and it is always been cleaned and detailed, so kind of useless for me.

yeah, no more than two coats needed......now you just have to learn rinsless, as it supercharges the CS, more than a hose wash:

Next time try this..... I got better results with it then the ultimate polish. The ultimate polish contains glazes, which fill in small spots until you wash the car, it's a small difference but it's significant.
