IMO, the best product for swirls on a black car.

Cool It Works!!!

Its true. I used product x for the first time today, and i was simply amazed how well it covered my superblackswirls.
If you are using x twice per week, does that mean you're washing the z twice weekly? Can it be used without washing the car first?
How do you alternate using the x and revive it?
Btw, your referral source for revive it said it has been discontinued. I got the last bottle!

Where did you get it from? Detail Direct is the only place I seen it available and a couple of people are having issues getting there order from them currently. I have my local body shop guy looking into it now but he may not be able to get any.

I used detail direct. They were prompt and very accomodating. Good people. Like i said, they said revive it is no longer available, but they have another product which they say does the same thing.

I'm happy quite a few people have tried this product and love it! I have had tons of IM's regarding the product and each person who has tried it came out happy.

I pick mine up from my auto detail guy, and or from my body shop guy. Both of them have a Blue Coral truck that drives to each of their shop every thursday and when I need more, I just tell them and they order an extra bottle for me.

Glad this stuff comes in gallon form, lasts a while.

If your car does not get dirty in the few days between coats, and you quick mist the car first, I am sure it would be ok to add another coat without a wash, and I did it a couple times without any problems. However my thing is usually wash + product X once weekly. I dusted my car off about a thousand times a day so it really didnt get very dirty inbetween washes.

So how about some pictures of your cars!

Damn, solid. Talk about using the search function haha.

I should give this a try, although I have DB. If I look at it close enough I can see a few swirl marks and fine scratches. Where can I get one in Texas?

According to the other posts, it looks like it's just a filler. If you want a "longer lasting solution," you'll need to polish out the swirls with some swirl removers and an orbital buffer.

I just called Blue Coral of Clarksville, TN and ordered some Product X. I ordered 16 oz. for $8 + s/h.

(931) 648-3681 is the number if you want to call.

My Product X came in earlier this week and I got a chance to test it out yesterday. It's definitely a great product. I'm a big Zaino fan, but IMO Product X outperformed the Zaino scratch/swirl remover. Give it a shot if you've got a dark car!

I have been looking for a solution to my swirls without really beating myself up. I have tried 3M Perfict-It Swirl polish for dark cars and it really didnt hide or remove them. I bought my car used and it has a good amount of fine swirls. What do you think, I want a professional to remove them if possible without use of a rotary. I wash and wax my car at least every week so this product sounds like a solution to me! Anyone try Product X on REDLINE yet?
