Looks great Glen! I just used this on my silveraldo today looks good it's just a work truck but I wanted to test it out with the white cause the Camaro is next.

I used the paint prep with it they sell also.

It spreads a bit diff than crystal seal, not better, just different. Gonna do a side by side test soon on a friends hood.....here it is a week later:

Hey Glen, another question. I got my car a couple months ago. Im sure the dealer used some sort of spray on wax or something during delivery prep, Should I strip that off with something before I put a coat of the Ultima on?

[Glen e]

Dawn
Clay or nanoskin
Wash
Ultima paint prep
2 coats paint guard...

But really, You should do my process is in my signature… If you want to use the Ultima ,substitute that for when the method calls for Crystal seal.

Don't chase a "magic" product… Learn to use the proper tools and procedures to lay down a clay, a polish (MOST important) and then a last step product to seal it.

Wash with Dawn between the Paint Guard coats?

Huh? Noooooo...

Please read the doc in my signature called "detailing for non-detailers" especially docs 1 and 2

Ok,
I read them, all good now!
Thanks,

I applied the Ultima last night and have a question. I watched a couple you tube videos on applying. The videos show the detailer applying 3 squirts to a dry applicator, but they are vague about adding more during the process. Should I add 1-2 squirts per panel? The applicator stays moist but its hard to tell how much and you stated the only mistake you can make is to use to much.

My rule of thumb is after you wet the applicator pad with 3 spritzes, i spray the panel once for each 1.5 x 1.5 foot of paint. So the hood would be 4-5 spritzes, the door might be 3 spritzes, etc...when I say don't use too much, I'm talking about the guy that uses half the bottle on the car in one application.

I do 2 coats 3 hours apart, then wipe down with my best clean microfiber.

All wipe on walk away (WOWA) sealants apply the same, this is a good vid:
