    Actually I bought it this way, from a small dealership in Upland... so... now I want to make it look better "completely thrashed?" OUCH!

    Some one at a club meet suggested I just have it color sanded and have it shot with a new coat of clear....

    thanks Mike!

    P.S. I Posted a pic of it to my gallery I think this is the link for it

    Just a general statement that it's been picked up by most if not all our normal retail partners.

    More info on this as we get into 2009

    This looks like a great product! I will certainly add this to my wish list.
    It fills a gap in the Consumer Line that up till now, required a product that was difficult to obtain locally and reliably.

    Is it possible to let us know which Retailers commit to these new products?

    You have to upload the picture into the gallery, simply "Attaching" a photo to your post is the lazy man's way and it corrupts the database over time so we don't allow it.

    Yes he did and I explained to him that we will no longer be scheduling dedicated Saturdays for car clubs, all future Saturday classes will be "Open Classes" and if a club wants to attend then all they have to do is get all their members to get registered and reply to the appropriate sign-up thread before it fills up with other people. Simple really.

    That is correct.

    Is there going to be a pro version availabe in larger sizes? I still do some DA work on cars that are either in decent condition but have hard paint (Mercedes with CeramiClear for example) but the owner only wants one polishing step. Sounds like this product will be perfect for that but buying by the gallon is more economical for me.

    Good catch, good eye...

    Would have probably read better to have used a few more words for the forum but on label copy and marketing materials, because real-estate is limited and people are scanners, you need to write short crisp copy.

    How's this,

    Makes traditional rubbing & polishing compounds obsolete

    I have to confess that I never knew that obsolete could be used as a verb. After I read the official announcement I had to run to the dictionary. I thought the advertising people might be guilty of language abuse; but I was wrong. Obsolete can be used as a verb. Who would've thunk it.
