    sheeting action

    Good Day All!

    I have a customer that is requesting that he wants a shine put on his vehicle that will sheet the water off and not bead.

    Any thoughts on a kick a$$ polish, sealant, or wax??

    According to Mike Phillips meg`s gold class will sheet as opposed to bead. I remember when I used GC it would sheet, just the durability was questionable. I still think it gives a vehicle a great look.

    GC always beaded for me, did not last long and was VERY dusty when buffing off.

    In many instances excessive dust when removing a product is because you applied too much product. Thin coats always work better for me, no matter what the product.

    I always found GC to be low-dusting, easy on, easy off. I always applied really thin layers though.

    The dust in GC is lots of "fillers". When applied as directed(thin), it is excessively "dusty".

    Fillers? I tend to think of fillers as something that is left behind by a polish like the #9. What makes you feel that the excess dust you have experienced with GC is the result of "fillers"? Not challenging your post, just curious. I guess it is a classic case of "your mileage may vary"
