Klasse?

I've been trying to figure out what brand is best for detailing my car and I've been looking into getting the Klasse All-in-one and the sealant glaze cause I've heard good things. I was wondering if anyone here uses it, I'd like to get more feedback on it before I buy

Its good stuff, just be sure to use it very sparingly as it can be hard to get off if you don't. For maximum shine and coverage let the SG cure, 8-12 hours and apply another coat of SG.

Klasse is great stuff. Actually the older none VOC compliant stuff is much better but the new formula still works really well. Just use a little bit at a time cause a little goes along way. You can use it for just about anything including washing your car!!! Great stuff.

wow, nice! About how long does the nanowax last?
I'm currently using meg's colorx, it works pretty good, but I'd like something that makes it a little more glossy. I'll try to post a pic later

put a coat of polymer wax like NXT over the color X and youll get the gloss, nano wax would prolly work too but ive never used it.

Klasse has some excellent products. All in One and Sealant Glaze look AMAZING when coupled together after a good high quality polish. I used to use strictly Klasse products but it got too expensive. That is what I detailed my Cobalt SS/SC with:

Well it turned out pretty good even though my buffer gave out during the polishing faze. The buffer that I had sucked anyway and I think it would have turned out even better with a better buffer. I got all my scratches out but I just couldn't get that really deep and clear look I was looking for do to the lack of power the buffer had, damn wal-mart piece of ****. I will post pics tonight or tomorrow when I can drag may as out to the car to get the digicam.

Well the pics I took really didn't look great once I put them on my computer. They just didn't turn out great indoors. I will try to take some out side pics because in person the car looks great. If you would like to see the pics click the little camera icon to the left under my pic to see my gallery.

Well here are some pics but they didn't come out to well due to the horrible light inside. When the weather is better I will get some better pics of the paint.

If your looking for a new buffer I'd go for the Porter Cable 7424 Dual Action. Meguairs sells it under their name with a lifetime warranty. Its a little pricey but def worth it, and with a lifetime warranty you cant go wrong!!

Get the 7336 Model, it's what I use. It's exactly the same as the 7424 but it has a heavier counter-weight which makes it easier on the hands (vibrates less and is easier to hold).
