About this deal

So, my running assumption (without any supporting info) is that a single coat of cured PNS—which cannot be layered because the solvent of subsequent coats will simply melt off any previous coats—is the intended usage of the product. Then, supplementing the PNS coating with BSD after washes, and between reapplications of PNS every six months. SONAX Brilliant Shine Detailer will gently remove any light contaminants from your paintwork & restore your vehicle to a just-waxed shine! Systematically pour over the car ... the thin film of water will drain off and dry. Do not do this on hot panels or in sunlight.

I've also applied it on the glass of my car and let me advise you to not to do so. The wipers started juddering, whereas the rear wiper wasn't able to wipe the rear glass completely. Note that I've changed my wipers recently so that could also be the cause of the problems. As for the door's glass, it did quite well. The trigger bottle isn't great. Once you get to two thirds down the bottle, it is difficult to get the last remains out and it just spits a few droplets at you. However, this is the only thing that does let it down. In my constant endeavour to try different products this time I set my eyes on Sonax Brilliant Shine Detailer.But as soon as I washed it with 3M's car shampoo, the water beading reduced to a great extent. I'm clueless about this. 3M does mention that it is a pH neutral shampoo but cannot find anything which claims that it is safe for wax/sealents. I don't know if other members face similar problems. I think from next time I'll be buying Sonax car shampoo. I have no idea if PNS is even helpful in this usage scenario. If the BSD provides the same protection (albeit, for a shorter period of time), and you wash your car periodically anyway, the after-wash BSD treatment should provide the same protective benefits to the car’s paint. But with BSD it's different. There is a lot less dust attracted to the paint now, the Jopasu duster doesn't requires more than three passes for the roof(required 4 passes for the Formula 1), and water beading is very good. I was able to dry my complete car with just one microfiber after coming from a drive in the rains whereas, earlier it took me more than three microfibers. First, although the instructions do say to wash and leather dry, that last part is not strictly necessary - you can sheet rinse and use this as a "wax it wet" product. This is how I used it today, with two approaches: first, using Sonax's wash and dry shampoo and second, using the same shampoo but rather than do the dry stage (as instructed), I sheet-rinsed. However this can be achieved by mixing it with other products like v7 but its not available in India.

To test the durability and longevity I will only do a rinseless wash for the next month or so UNLESS the vehicle gets solied during rains. Second, do not apply onto hot surfaces, in direct sunlight and don't allow the product to dry. Spray on, wipe immediately, flip and buff. Any discolouration should be wiped over again with fresh product. Why did you go with this, because in my opinion The Turtle wax Ice seal and shine is way superior, and with the turtle wax brand launched just a few months ago, availability and price isn't an issue. I found the product to be extremely easy to apply and remove. Only very light pressure was needed and I had zero issues with streaking or smearing. The shine left behind by BSD is great. Maybe not quite as good as that left behind by my AngelWax QED, but for the water beading lovers, it's practically untouchable!Several days after applying Sonax Brilliant Shine Detailer, this car sat out in a pretty good rain storm. I went out to examine the beading action, and was pleasantly surprised. Even though the vehicle already had a good layer of protection, which beaded nicely on its own, I noticed even better beading and sheeting when it was topped with Brilliant Shine Detail Spray. The beads were small, tight, uniform, and spherical in shape – all indications of a fantastic layer of protection. I’ll never get tired of seeing water bead up like this on a nicely protected surface!

Strangely the comparison was being done with products which are priced almost double than BSD which caught my attention.
