    I just wanted to share my pictures of my 2000 360. I clayed the car, compounded it with Meguiars DA Microfiber Correction Compound and corresponding mf pad, followed by wipe down with 50/50 mix of 93% rubbing alcohol and distilled water. My hood had slight haze to it so I polished it with a foam pad and some polish.

    Application was pretty easy but you end up using more than just a few drops on their special applicator as the paint seemed to really absorb the 22PLE! It is pretty hard to see where you applied the product as you are working so I worked in small sections of course in a cross pattern. Let it dry 3-5 mins and gently wipe off excess with 2 microfiber towels. I also applied it to the rear challenge grill and the black bumper trim piece that is below license plate and they also look amazing. Here are some after photos in my garage... These pictures were right after application so I think that it may even improve a bit once it is fully cured! Overall the actual application was pretty easy and I have about 10% left of the bottle after I treated all the wheels...

    Car looks great. I applied it to my wife's truck last May and it is holding up beautifully.

    Looks amazing. It's cures over a few days. The results are awesome and last for quite a long time. Like you said, it takes a little more than a few drop to apply it and it is quite hard to see once applied. It looks great on Rosso Corsa. Nice work

    Thx - I also used it on the wheels and may do the rear diffuser if I have enough. I wonder if I can use this stuff in the engine compartment for the left and right black long black side engine cover panels???

    Good stuff. Hopefully it'll drop in price over time. I use it every year or two on every car I own. So worth it, never a swirl, can use brushless washes, looks brand new forever.

    Update: Do not use this stuff on wheels! They have a product specifically for wheels and metal trim... The brake dust kept sticking to the finish after driving and was very hard to remove. Contacted Detailed Image and they said remove all with 50/50 water and rubbing alcohol. Wheel coating is ordered! lesson learned!

    I have used Gloss Coat on my rims and never had a problem.

    I would be curious to hear if the dedicated rim product is better , I really thought is was just about the same goop.

    I think the difference is all about heat resistance!
