I recently became a certified installer of Nano-Hide coatings. I was never really a big fan of them (nano coatings in general). I did particularly care for the hydrophobic qualities, and the difficulty of application and the fact that every little flaw you didn't remove is now permanent freaked me out a bit. Plus you can't beat the gloss and refraction of some of the carnuba's and hybrids on the market.
Then I got a call from a gentleman who offered to pay me whatever I wanted to do a paint correction on a vehicle and show me his product. I bit. Can't pass up a free job.
When I got there, they had a car that had been treated already. It had some bugs and bird droppings on the hood and bumper. I cringed when he wiped away the bird droppings with a dry microfiber. You could see the etching from the droppings and the scratches from rubbing (not wiping) the turd away. They told me go back and check it in an hour.
I went to work on the car I was detailing, and an hour later, came back to check that spot. It was all gone. I shit you not. I was blown away.
After doing that car top to bottom, they offered to do it on the Mustang.
After doing my car, I brought it home, let it cure, and then decided "Let me test the swirls "self-healing" in the sun (Or under a heat gun)." So I went out, grabbed an old bath towel (polyester blend) and began grinding it into the treated paint, trying to make some swirls to try it out with. SHOCKINGLY, I couldn't put swirls in the paint. A bath towel will swirl any dirty paint job even with lubricants. I did it on dusty paint with nothing but the towel. And I used my 15000w halogens to look for defects.
I'm blown away by this product. While it is costly, I'm worried that it may put me out of business LOL. Which is why I only do it on the cars they set me up with! But I figured I'd share it with y'all since you guys love your cars as much as I do.
I sound like a salesman here but trust me: It works. I think I have a little of a reputation as a decent detailer on here so hopefully, y'all don't think im some new troll trying to sell you on something (I make nothing off this).
Thanks and enjoy.
