Question Since Jeffs Werkstatt seems to be flavour of the month..

..I just wondered how y'all are using it?

I presume everyone has a favourite method by now.Got any tips you care to share when applying by hand

Me,I've only used the Acrylic prime once.(but the car was brand spankers then)

Since then I've just washed it(2 buckets)dried it with the PB towel and then used the Jett Trigger.Spray on and smear about with one towel then buff off with another.....I've not bothered with the Acrylic Gloss yet so wondered if I was missing out on anything or what it's actual purpose was(I don't read instuctions too good I don't)



I must be doing something wrong,as the damn stuff is just too easy to use

(basterdised version of Polished Bliss instructions)

Apply Acrylic Prime with white side of german applicator (which you've squirted a bit of Acyrlic Glos on first), leave for a bit, buff off (using the odd squirt of Glos if needed to help shift residue), then apply Trigger with one MF towel, leave for a minute or two, then buff off with another.

Wash and apply trigger whenever needed until you need to clay and polish again in a few months.

Glos is just a detailing spray really; but the kit buy from polished bliss makes it worthwhile getting all together

Yup,I've got the full kit from PB

But trying to build up the layers of Trigger for the deeper gloss and thought re-application of the primer would remove all of that?

Thats how I read it as well.

If your going to clay/polish your going to remove it all anyhow; so thats the only time I'm planning to use Prime.

Spot on! Only use Prime after claying to further cleanse the paint. Use the Trigger as often as you like to add more protection and deepen the gloss. Use the Glos to do a wipedown after Prime or Trigger if you get smearing (can happen under certain conditions), or when drying off after washing if you want to make sure you leave no water marks and aid the drying process.
