Carpro Essence & Reload - Page 5

Burly · 07-05-2017, 06:54 PM

Had to fix a couple scratches (beach chair leaned up against front fender by nameless)and tried the Essence plus polish after using Ultimate Compound. What I noticed was it did a much better job correcting the micro marring. Used a black finishing pad, medium speed, and was a little surprised how well it did on first pass. The Blackfire TnPS didn't work this good.

Where in NC are you so I know where to drop mine off....

Dang it, I'm over by Raleigh. I do know a guy here who's quite the detailing dude. Might be time to hit him up.

Cannot explain how much Essence & Reload improved the look of my car! If you haven’t followed Glenn’s suggestions on paint care, I urge you to do so.

Texan, did you use the reload on the hood? I’ve heard conflicting information about whether it should be used on a satin finish

I did not. Glen advised me not to. Just used a matte detail spray on it. I currently use Adam’s. Seems to do a good job on it.

Car looks great bud!

I applied reload to my CquartzUK'd and glissed Camaro the other day and I'm pretty sure I used too much. Even though I went over the car with quality dry towels over and over again afterwards...theres a residue from reload...and it's a friggin dust magnet lol.

Anyone have a similar issue? Sunrise this morning I'm gonna wash the car again and simply dry it after, thinking maybe that'll do it.
