Black Diamond products replaced?
I used the Blackfire Crystal Seal on my car and the blackfire wet diamond polymer spray which works great but now I can't find them any more.
I also use Blackfire Gloss Enhancing Polish and can't find it either. Did Blackfire replace these products with something else? |

I was just looking into the same thing this morning. Trying find out what is BF crystal seal now. I wanted to get some for my Dad for Father’s Day. Might just give him some of the Reload I have.

Also, mckees 10 min paint sealant looks and applies the same as bf cs......I'd give a novice the Ultima or mckee's before I'd give them the reload. Use meguires 205 for the polishing step for both.

Never liked it… it was too expensive for what you get. they make in Si02 spray now that probably would work. ask these questions @ autogeek, there's only a few of us that really follow products here. But there's plenty of tests on autogeek of all the new blackfire products

Thanks for the above, Glen. A WOWA product is a much better option for him. Ordered the McKees 10 Min sealant for him after your suggestion and some reading over at the Autogeek forums.

Remember, novices use too much. Two spritzes per panel, work that in, no more… Maybe three or four on the hood......Tell him to act like he's putting on something invisible ....he doesn't have to see it go on.....Get him a microfiber brick to use, not a microfiber towel.
