  • Paint Sealer just came in the mail

    It's a two-phase system. One is a pretreatment/cleaner, the other is the sealer it'self. The directions for the sealer say, "Once applied and all residue is buffed off with a terr-cloth towel, the sealant is 90% cured. Within the next 24hrs, the finish is 100% cured".
    F1GT, I saw that you've used something similar before, did you're car take 24 hrs for the sealant to dry?? Anyone else??
    Gonna try it on my next couple of days off. I still have ol'Zaino to rely on if I don't like the finish.

    Actually it dried pretty quick, just like wax. But if you want to layer a sealant, then wait 24 hrs before applying another layer. They also say that letting it sit longer before wiping off the sealant will enhance it a bit. Each time you layer it gets thinner and thinner. So I only layered it 3 times as people from the detailing boards says it's a waste after that.

            It's acrylic-based, which is good. Tell us how it works out. Let one layer cure 24hours before applying another.
