| POWER SEAL™ |
|
Although
the POWER SEAL is not a metal polish, it does have a very small
amount of polishing action that helps to maintain a smooth, glossy,
metal finish. It should never be used to remove oxidation; it should
only be used to maintain the polished metal.
For
example; rather than polishing your wheels once or twice a year
after they look terrible, you can simply use the POWER SEAL occasionally
and your wheels would always look good.
If you’re suggesting using the POWER SEAL occasionally why not just
use the polish? Doesn’t that protect too?
The
METAL POLISHES do protect to a certain extent, but the POWER SEAL
is easier to use and will extend that time frame. Just because you
use a sealant doesn’t mean that you never have to do anything again.
All
surfaces, whether paint, plastic, or metal, need some type of care
to maintain a smooth look. It really depends on what you’re doing
with the vehicle and what it’s exposed to. Once again, driving through
salt slop in Minneapolis will shorten the life of anything. Compared
to a show car that’s rarely driven, it’s obvious one will need more
maintenance.
The
bottom line is that the POWER SEAL is very easy to use; it saves
time in the long run and keeps your metal looking good a lot longer.
As far as how often do you have to use it? The answer is: often
enough to keep it protected. I will wipe down my wheels every other
time I wash the vehicle.
An
important thing to remember is that the POWER SEAL does have a curing
time. It takes about 24 to 48 hours for the sealant to cure. That’s
important because the protective qualities won’t have much of a
chance if you wash your wheels or drive in the rain right after
you apply it.
Isn’t it kind of like the SHINE MASTER SEALANT? Couldn’t you use that
too?
It
works very similarly, and yes you can use that as well. However
there are some major advantages. It does have more sealant quality
than the SHINE MASTER and the small amount of polish in the POWER
SEAL is targeted for the metal sealing process.
By
the way, using the POWER SEAL on your paint isn’t going to hurt
anything either; it just may take a little more rubbing to get it
off.
What’s the application? Do you just put it on and leave it, do you
wait for 48 hours, or do you wipe it off right away? |
