Yea that would have been a deal breaker for me personally. I'm no where near really caring about giving personal reviews or trying new products to dethrone the others. I just loved the 50% off and knew I needed to replenish some stuff.

I bought this stuff for multiple reasons. One being the same as yours, I bought stuff that I am going to need to replace soon. Another being the 50% off.

Also, I do plan on giving my own personal review of these products because I think they deserve it. I'm sure Dylan worked his ass off to get it in our hands quickly, and I truthfully think he will take all constructive criticism very well and adjust formulas accordingly (if the products even need it).

And if these products don't out perform my current favorites I will simply use them on my customers car. So I don't have anything to waste per say, because even if I don't consider these products the "best"(which is subjective itself) I'm completely confident they will be top tier and nothing to overlook.

What I am really excited for are his polishes and sealants. Waxes, maybe.

Finally got out today and was able to use the products that I ordered.

The balanced wash worked... Not really sure what I should really say here. I feel as though my optimum created more suds and had more lubricity. Will have to see for sure as I do more washes.

I'm in love with the tire shine. Doesn't give the tires the stupid heavy gloss look but definitely adds what I think is the perfect clean shine. Will be reordering this in the future.

Wasn't able to use the APC. May do an engine bay detail on my car soon and will use it for that.

Here are some before and after shots. I'm curious to know if this will work on other trim applications, or something like the windshield wipers.

How did you prep your tires for a new dressing without using an APC?

With one of those foam applicators. And that's one coat.

I did use APC, just not SCG's. I first used Meg's Non-Acid Tire and Wheel Cleaner. I had a sample of Blackfire's APC that I had yet to use, and wanted to use it prior to the SCG's to see if I see a difference in the future. So I used that to prep and then applied the tire dressing.
