Hmmmm, the link still works for me. Yes, that's the one. It comes with one foam bonnet for application and one microfiber bonnet for removal. You can buy extra mf bonnets. Only two of them were left.

The $49 polisher also comes with a wool bonnet in addition to the other ones. Which is used after the mf bonnet but that seemed like a waste of time using it.
 
Thanks - wax on and wax off is good enough for my new car finish - if it will do that without burning up I'll be satisfied !

Please let us know how you like it.


I applied it with a microfiber hand applicator. It went on easy. Didnt stain trim. After doing the car I let it sit 15 min and then used a palm polisher to take off. It was hard to take off. Reminded me of nu finish when you let it sit too long. I poured some water on the hood after and the beading is really cool lol

How would you rate it overall compared to other similar products that you may have used in the past?

I'm looking for something that's not hard to take off.

Try Meguiar's Ultimate Liquid. A fantastic product that is incredibly easy to put on and wipe off extremely easily. It's also rated as a frequent top choice in reviews based on shine, protection, and durability. $15 at Target/Walmart for a kit with applicator and microfiber towel included. Best stuff I've ever used.
 
Soft99 with PTFE I take that over Finish Kare 1000P reason the PTFE has excellent water beading and a very slick surface easy cleaning. Both are similar in application.

The PTFE sealant got a bad rap years ago with the 5 year warranty from auto dealers..had it's pro and cons BUT no 5 years??? no do.

I've got a can of Soft99 Fusso Coat sitting on the shelf.

Maybe next time I'm home I'll strip and refinish the 911 and give it a shot.

First time I used it I put it on too heavy and it was a bear to take off. Learned the hard way it only requires a very thin application making it much easier to take off. I also found that multiple applications yielded no extra longevity in the Florida sun and humidity. That said it has lasted me 2X as long as any Meguiars product which used to be my go to wax for the Florida climate.

One thing I noticed on the can is that it says "do not use on plastic or unpainted resin bumper." In your experience, will it stain unpainted trim?

I've applied it on unpainted trim. Make sure applicator is wet need to apply a heavy coat and don't let it dry(apply/wipe). A too thin coat will stain. Do small section at a time. Add couple drops of water where sealant is applied so the sealant spreads quick(heavy and wet).

Soft99 Nano Hard Plastic Coat G'Zox Plastic would be the right product for longevity for bumpers and trims. Soft99 Fusso dries out too fast but with a thick coat on trims will last with a decent coat monthly depending on environmental condition and no shampoo. I try not to use shampoo with Fusso but a strong watering and a blower for drying. Need to understand the Fusso application it needs a clean clear coat to cure itself preferably a new vehicle if not proper prep would be needed for older clear coats.

The Fusso application would be most ideal for example a work truck in dusty construction environment daily. Hose it down to clean it keep dirt from building up, some wax or sealant dust or dirt tend to stick so need to shampoo it. Fusso dirt slides off don't stick.

Thanks. I am actually trying to avoid getting it on plastic trim. I was just wondering what would happen if I accidentally did get some on it while applying it to the paint. I am guessing that as long as I wipe it off the trim right away, there should not be a problem.
 
I have had Finish Kare for a while, but finally got around to using it this weekend. OMG!!! Where has this been my whole life??

I have once used bottles of Meguiars Ultimate Liquid, Wolfgang Deep Gloss Paint Sealant, Griot's Garage Boss Finishing Sealant and more. I was in the Zaino cult for years. My most used products have been Duragloss, specifically 105 and 501, both with 601. I have also used, and liked, Collinite 845, McKees 37 360 and Rejex.

Nothing, nothing, outside of a spray sealant, has ever gone on and wiped off easier than FK M101 (formerly 1000P). Shine and slickness are great, but of course the real test will be how long both will last. I may have handicapped it a little by applying over Meguiars Ultimate Fast Finish, but we shall see. What is really unique about the application is how easily you can maintain the necessary "thin coat" that is so crucial to good bonding and effortless removal.

If it lasts anywhere near what some claim, I will be donating several hundred dollars worth of product to a local 22 year old who is trying to make a go as a detailer.
