Black fire crystal seal is the bomb!

So as a lot of you already know this stuff is just incredible! Like any other sealant you want to make sure the paint is perfect before putting it down. My method was to wash with dawn. Clay bar then meguiars 205 polish. Lastly the sealant goes down. It's so easy! And shines so nice! I'm sold. Thanks guys!

Both of your cars look PHENOMENAL!!!!!

I read Glen's recommendation/tips and tried it. I am sold as well. So damn easy to use and the end results look like you spent 2 full days working your butt off.

That's about 5 years worth, the 4 0z bottle is more than enuf.....

About every three months somebody calls me and says
"hey I used this and it's really smeary"....
And I'll ask, "how much did you use?"
And he'll say "about half a bottle"
and I'll say "well that's about 10 cars worth",

crickets on the other end of the phone…LOL

Honestly that the first picture I've ever seen that shows that much gloss on a white car. Kudos to you .....how many coats is that?

I just ordered myself some yesterday and was wondering if you guys put it on your stripes too. Picked up my 50th Ann Edition a couple days ago. I don't think it's an issue but would like some feedback before I do.
