I've always told you that... or just a detailing service period. You do excellent work! I know you'd be a success with your attention to detail while detailing...

Well as I have said, you can use "Revive it" instead of Product X. Revive it is 50% Product X and 50% sealent. If applied often enough, Product X will protect your paint, and Revive it will protect it more so.

As for where to buy online, I don't know. I know a guy who owns an auto detail shop, and one of my friends owns a body shop. They both use Blue coral products, so every thursday a Blue Coral truck comes to their shops and i pick up a bottle from them when I need it.

So basically you recommend the revive it? Which did you use on the car? Also can you buy me one and have it shipped or let me know if the store you get it from will ship. Thanks..

Well i use Prod. X only because I do it at least one weekly. If you want more durability ( and prodtection ), and don't plan on doing it once a week, then I recomend revive it.

Let me search online. I know there is a thread on here somewhere, where someone foind Prod.X online and posted the link.

Yeah i can only find Product X at the Site Jsn350z mentioned. Revive doesn't seem to exsist anymore. I live in New Jersey and due to the ever changing weather i wanted somthing alil more durable because i will not be able to do it every week and revie it isnt around so i was looking for something to put over top i going to do a few tests with some different products and let you know how it goes

P.S. I must say JSN350z is one of the most helpfully people on this site and id liek to thank him for helping me out!!!!!

Naaah, I'm not that great. The Prod. X kicks A$$ though

Maybe, you can try this?

http://www.detaildirect.com/cgi-bin/detail/8104.html

Its a "long lasting" Carnauba wax. You probably already saw it on that site, but for what you are looking for, I think I;d give that a go. You should just experiament with which you use on top and bottom, which way looks better. Usually you put polish down first, and wax on top, but Prod.X just looks so good by itself.

what kind of condition was the super black Z in before you did the job with the product x? My car has very fine scratches all over the car and i can't get rid of them. i have super black too.
i am thinking about doing the same thing you did. it looks amazing.

Product x looks loke a liquid, as opposed to a gel. How is it going on with a porter cable polisher?
