    I LOVE this product! its a paint cleaner/gloss enhancer/bond agent. I used it under Vintage and it looked great.

    Its not as greasy as SV CF, and easier to work with than Z HDC. It is VERY thick and can get touchy if you put on too much. I felt like it did clean the paint very well and did add a touch of gloss. Now the bonding claim Ill have to report back at a later time.

    Bottom line, Im getting a gallon!

    virtua-bond408 Sounds very interesting how do you apply it and how do you tell if it even bonds to the paint. Thank you.:thumb:

    Still need to get my hands on this stuff to give it a shot. Might have to give Paul a call soon to try out some new items.

    Has anyone compared this to DG601? Any reports on longevity?

    I used vertuabond under autoarmour357 looks are fantastic, durability seems pretty good. For me Zaino/ZFX is the king , DG 105/601 next I think Vertuabond under AA357,WMF and probably Mseal will last just as long as anything except Z & DG JMO. I have been experimenting with a product called SWAX the looks are deep like carnuba actually one of the best looking products I have tried. I am going to try vertuabond underneath. Usually when I want to extend durability on a product I top with ZCS. ZCS is killer on anything.
    For me it lasts longer than OS. OS is a nice product but I like ZCS better.

    I can't see how a product with oils in it can be good for a sealant..and how the oils restore paint..unless its a single stage paint or lacquer...

    I would need clarification on the benefit of the oils for the use of sealants...waxes i can see since the do not bond to paint but just adhere..but a sealant bonds to paint and to do so it should be free of any oils....

    what is everyone using to apply this? Are you letting it sit or instant removal. Straight lines or circles?

    I used this a few times now, applied on a polishing pad on a Flex. Just worked a little at a lowish speed.

    Works well and seems to clean nicely, and leaves a nice looking finish. Its not super slick feeling like Dodo Lime prime, not squeaky clean like SV CF and not oily like a HDC finish either. Its somewhere in between all these and perhaps closest to a quick play I had with Megs no. 5....possibly....

    I've used it under several waxes incl Vintage, Royale, Supernatural, 50/50 and Victorias. All worked well. I couldnt honestly tell if it improves bnding and durability at all though...thats a tough call ;)

    I used it with my flex rotary at 1500 rpms on a blue lc finishing pad. Worked well the surface was polished with sip on green ultrafina se on black vb408 with blue and topped with js 109 looked great on a black passat. I did 106fa on white followed by vb by hand on my gsxr 750 last night topped with mystery looked stellar.
