I read up on it after the exposure it got in EVO, but to me it just looks like any other high quality sealant system. I'd be very dubious that a single step product could full correct harder paints, which leads me to question whether it contains fillers? At least the manufacturer is honest, and states clearly that a top up is required annually; in our experience even the best sealants need topping up a couple of time per year. No reason to think it's not a good product, maybe overhyped just a bit with regard to the correction stage.

Thanks for the info, Rich.

I was given the option on a used car I'm taking delivery of tomorrow but I'll give it a miss and continue using the great stuff from your website.

Can't wait to try your Carnauba Kit on the (red) car (Weather Permitting )

Default permashine

it's no better than the likes of diamondbrite/ supa guard.
you can pick up supa guard on the net for 1/2 the price of permashine.

It's a bit like Permatan, costs a lot of money and doesnt last as long as the real thing

Hi Ian, im a car valeter that works in taunton somerset. we have an autosmart rep that we buy our cleaning stuff from. according to him he knows the manager and workers very well at permashine. says he supplys them with their stuff. in which case they would be using a product called silverseal, which is basiclly a equivilant to supa gaurd. we use silverseal all the time and its very easy to use. depending on what they charge is depending if its worth the value. where i work they charge £300 for applying it, and it aint worth that, especially knowing they buy the packs in for £40!! so il leave it up to you to decide.
hope this of some use.
