I believe it is, I've used it on my rally stripes before and it works good, haven't used it on the hood wrap yet, but imaging the results will be the same

I use Chemical Guys as well, plus it smells good.

I tried the SVRT on mine, it was more shiny than I liked. I re-wraped my hood and now I use Zaino Z6 on mine. Works well for me. My car is not a 1LE, but I did the wrap on it twice (first was really practice).

My car does not sit outside a bunch, but I wipe the car down daily.

I've used Adam's VRT and Meguirs M40 ( http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...ilpage_o06_s00 ).

Both work about the same. I think they both leave too much of a shine, but after a wipe down or two, it looks good.

It rained, sun dried it, good as new. My car stays outside and 1.5 years and close to 16K miles, no issues at all. Nothing fancy with me, just the normal car wash stuff.

I wash like normal, raise the hood to drain the water off and wipe it dry. Then spray and wipe it down.

This stuff is what I use and it works great. Hood wrap looks brand new.
