Opinions on Blackfire GEP?

[BenadetH]

I've read that Cliotoby likes it but just want some more opinions? Polished Bliss say its one of the best polishes they have used. I'll be applying to the artic by hand?

It's not a polish mate it's a filler heavy pre wax cleanser.

It'll look immense if you work it in by hand the seal it in with a decent wax.

Thanks gally. I'll be sealing straight after with dodo juice purple haze so it should look the business right? Have a look at my last going over on the wee girl! This was SRP then dodo'd. http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.10150648602845165.694811.693325164&l=a24d9e11c7

I don't do Facebook sadly mat but i'm sure it looks tidy.

Out 2 layers of PH on. Give it that little extra boost.

 

[BenadetH]

Does doing another layer straight after actually make that much of a difference? Some say it doesn't?

 

[Gally]

It does it's also better for coverage. Wait 15 minutes between layers.

Brilliant get some Blackfire All Finish Paint Protection too.

Really good and underated product.

I did it by hand I did a thread on my car not so long ago, on my phone or I would link you up. Search Vauxhall Astra.

Will this work well with a DA?

 

[Cliotoby]

I dont think theres any difference really. Its easier to use by hand I find. Ive tried both.

Amazing product, ive always thought its SRP but much better. Looks amazing on black, gives a really glossy and deep shine, and brings the metallic flake out too. Perfect base for just about anything too. Wax or Sealant. Easy to apply and remove, no dust.

I tend to apply one layer of wax then wait again until its been washed after a few days or a week, then re apply the wax.

 

[Gally]

You'll get more out of by machine but it'll probably take longer with all the masking up and shiz.

 

[Cliotoby]

I dont agree mate. Youve said it yourself before, its mega filler heavy. Hand is more than sufficient IMHO TBQH.

I didnt think it spready very well via da either.

 

[Gally]

You seen my last thread though? Via rotary? It's miles better by machine imo.

 

[Cliotoby]

Yes mate. My test car was a 166k miler though and had seen a sponge or two i rekon. Needed a full machine polish really.

But my parents lightly swirled C class came up almost perfect via hand. Probably had less swirls on it than your FRP after that valet.

Maybe im not in a position to comment then. I just see it as a hand product. I think if I use it again, it would be by hand every time.

 

[Gally]

The last time I used to test my Lusso Oro it was by hand and it was very good but nowhere near the same level of filling like machine mate.

 

[Cliotoby]

OK, then I am defeated. And wrong.

 

[BenadetH]

Hahaha!

 

[Gally]

Indeed.

I just looked back at my last detail when i used both GEP & AFPP together it has been about a month and the AFPP is starting to wear off. So i will be giving it a wash & try out my Orange Crush then a wipe down after with my Z6 sometime soon.
