BlackReign... You will like that CarPro Perl. I used it on some of my trim. Havent gotten to coat everything yet. It is still holding up strong. However the only one I still have trouble with is the Roush rear splitters. Im about sick of those things. Im about ready to sell the dang things.

Yep. I tried to mix it back up but it just became a sloppy mess.

If you know of any tricks I could have used to save it (for the future), I'm all ears :)

Well that wax came new to me with a pudding like consistency. Can you take a picture of what it looks like? Email CG see what they say?

Yeah....see....that's going to be a problem. It pissed me off and I threw it out :dunce:

When I opened and used it originally, you're right. It did have a pudding like consistency. Now, a couple of weeks ago when i was getting my garage set back up and opened the can, it looked like yogurt that has the water separating and chunks. I put it all in another bowl and stired it for a bit. The "water" never did really mix back up and I never got that smooth "pudding" like consistency.
You're right, I probably should have called CGs, but it just totally frustrated me.

I tossed it and ordered some Black Fire Wet Diamonds. So we'll see.

That is how I felt when I bought CG Lava. I knew it was a soft wax, but, not pudding like. I applied a super thin coat and couldn't buff it out. Took insane effort.

Sold it the next day to a member here.

I've heard good things about BFWD Wax.

Just got a big order of MF, pads, FG400, FF3000, Sonax net shield, sonax fallout cleaner, and picked up a basic electric Ryobi pressure washer. I've used a had one before but the maintenance wasn't appealing plus the extra cost. The MTM foam cannon will gets its workout.

Here's some results from my hard F250 paint. Griots, cyan hydrotech , FG400, just one or two passes.
