Im looking to get a few new products to add or replace with the few otc things i have . First i need to know if i should get a sealant like powerlock,dG105,etc . Also with sealants do i have to apply them with a pc .Can i do it by hand or rotary and uber black pad at low speeds ? Also can i apply sealants under say colli845 then top with carnuba wax ?What would be the best lsp's to get white pearl with blue ghost pearl to really pop ? With that being said what products to get for what : sealer polish --------???????? .Thinking DG105,zaino,powerlock,klasse ? Tire dressing -------- I like a little shine and need durability --zaino z-16,opti bond gel ,megs hd ,FK,others? APC degreaser for wheels/interior/exterior . I heard megs good but not sure which or if there are better ones exterior plastic trim . --- I heard black wow is good but a little too expensive . pre wax cleaner ???? do i need or benifit from more than just using like a QD Final wipe down after wax -- ????? Should i use qd like the onr i have or somthing better like fk425 . Somthing else ? Where can i get good otc microfibers . Iv tried a bunch of online ones already and may favs are ps WW and my number favorite by far is the no name from DD .That thing is amzing and iv tried a few plush mf's now . Any otc like those .
Sealer- Colinite 845 is a great sealer wax. Durability is insane Tire Dressing- I like opti-bond and Megs all-season dressing APC- Megs APC or APC+. For the price, you really cannot beat them IMO
Sealant DG 501, FK 1000p, Collinite 845 Tire dressing Meg All Season Dressing, Meg hot shine gel, FK 108 APC Zep citrus Exterior trim Meg All Season Dressing, FK 108, Meg Gold class dressing Pre wax cleaner DG 501, Prima Amigo QD FK 425, DG 921 Apply DG 501 with a white lc pad speed 3, 1000p by hand, 845 gold lc pad speed 3 Prima Amigo white lc pad speed 3 or 4
So basically my collinite 845 Will protect as well as give a high gloss finish just like polish/sealers like 501 for example ? Also by speed 3 you mean on a orbital So i cant use a rotary and non abrasive pad? I havent heard much on fk1000P . How is it ? For the megs all season dressing is it really good compared to like optibond ? Difference between megs all season dressing and hyper dressing ? Right now my apc/degreasers are zep citrus and cg grime reaper . I Think i will try the megs APC+ .I like that i can dilute it for interiors . If collinite is just as good as the other sealers than i wont bother to get one For tire dressing im am between megs AS dressing ,SFX whitepearl and optibond gel ? Can i use all of them on trim ?
845 wil shine and protect very well but it will not clean like 501. I use 501 as my cleaner more then a protectant. The pads I use are LC flat and machine is a PC 7424. FK1000p is a fantastic sealant, looks good and lasts a long time. Meg ASD is great not sure how it compares to Opt as I have not used Opt. I would stick with your current APC and forget about another one. I use Meg ASD on trim and I have had not problems.
After trying a sample of megs hyper dressing, i just wasn't impressed. It leaves a very glossy shine, but the durability isn't as long as the All season dressing. Also, hyper dressing tends to "bleed" when you put it on trim and it rains (IME at least)
