Default Blackfire + wax experiment

Practiced on my truck first, to see how it would come out. I'll do the Z after the clearbra next week. Its a 3 month old S-10 thats been a little neglected the last month and a half, with our move and leaving out at the airport. I washed, clay barred, washed, then applied one coat each of Blackfire Polish, Blackfire Sealant, and S-100 wax. I know can't reuse the blackfire til I strip it all down, but I think it should last a while with regular waxing. There is a fair amount of orange peel to the paint, also.

about 3 hours from start to finish. the blackfire sealant and s100 go on and come off effortlessly without any dust.

Where can you order the S100 from?
