My L5-S1 is killing me!
I will try to add this to the "Reviews area" as well.....
Well, I think I've tried these products enough to review them:
Did a couple interiors with VRT. I think this may be my new go-to interior product for colors other than black. It leaves just a hint of shine (even less than PB's NL) and is dry within 10 minutes. I have been using about 3/4 oz for a car interior and using an Autopia Blue Perls MF applicator for a little cleaning action.
I tried VRT on tires too but the look was too matte for my taste, I prefer my BnB still. The foam circle applicator was terrible, product all over my hands by the 4th tire. I'll keep my plastic handle foam tire applicators, thanks.
The yellow MF looks very high quality. I do not have too much use for the MF applicators, lloks like they would be good to apply revive to the paint if you did not have a PC.
I did an Audi (black) with Butter Wax and it came out great, sorry no pics. I also did a 2002 Mercedes M-class with the following:
SSR2.5 on PC
Revive on PC
BW by hand
Revive does what it says but personally, I do not use chemical only cleaners much. Revive was almost invisible the entire time I used it (not a bad thing) but it did not *seem* very aggressive at all. I did make the paint clean and shiney though! I think I will stick to SSR1 for most of the cars I do as the last polish step. I like abrasives, what can I say
I think BW really darkens black, not a very high shine product though. VERY easy on/off. On black, choosing between BW, LS and EX will be VERY tough. PS - Thanks to Nick and Adam for the products. I think I'll be buying more BW and VRT in the future. Here's 2 afters and a before pic on the Mercedes:
