SONAX 287400 Xtreme Brilliant Shine Detailer, 750 ml

Product Information

Also note above mentioned points have been penned down after using the product for 1-1.5 months. After applying the product, the car wasn't washed for the same duration. Only a Jopasu duster was used to remove the dirt. Second, do not apply onto hot surfaces, in direct sunlight and don't allow the product to dry. Spray on, wipe immediately, flip and buff. Any discolouration should be wiped over again with fresh product.

To test the durability and longevity I will only do a rinseless wash for the next month or so UNLESS the vehicle gets solied during rains.

The trigger bottle isn't great. Once you get to two thirds down the bottle, it is difficult to get the last remains out and it just spits a few droplets at you. However, this is the only thing that does let it down. I had recently tried 2 of their products( Sonax Xtreme Wheel Cleaner,Sonax Xtreme Matt Effect)and was really amazed by the results. The shine left behind by BSD is great. Maybe not quite as good as that left behind by my AngelWax QED, but for the water beading lovers, it's practically untouchable! Enhances the paintwork finish and gives the paintwork a velvety smooth surface and a brilliant deep shine It also provides very good protection. The birds poop which would earlier leave a orange coloured spot on the paint (if i cleaned it after a day), was now unable to leave any spot even after sitting on the paint for three days.

I also do not see this as a product that requires a strict cure period. As soon as I apply it to the paint I can immediately rinse it and notice that amazing water behavior. I have not tested long-term durability at this point. The longest I've had it on the test car was two weeks under intense Florida heat and almost daily rainstorms, and the beading was still outstanding. I'm constantly cycling products for short-term testing, but I plan to also try long-term testing in the future. Purpose of using this product was purely to get the pop effect on white paint and i am satisfied with it. But as soon as I washed it with 3M's car shampoo, the water beading reduced to a great extent. I'm clueless about this. 3M does mention that it is a pH neutral shampoo but cannot find anything which claims that it is safe for wax/sealents. I don't know if other members face similar problems. I think from next time I'll be buying Sonax car shampoo.

Features

Several days after applying Sonax Brilliant Shine Detailer, this car sat out in a pretty good rain storm. I went out to examine the beading action, and was pleasantly surprised. Even though the vehicle already had a good layer of protection, which beaded nicely on its own, I noticed even better beading and sheeting when it was topped with Brilliant Shine Detail Spray. Why did you go with this, because in my opinion The Turtle wax Ice seal and shine is way superior, and with the turtle wax brand launched just a few months ago, availability and price isn't an issue.
