matte SLS AMG & Dr. Beasley's
First off, I loved the Dr. Beasley's packaging! Clean, simple, classic. Second, was the ease of use! I have a SLS AMG with the designo Magno Alanite Grey matte finish and it was SIMPLE to apply. Third, the car looked spectacular! I have attached several pics and it just in no way does it justice. I ordered the matte sealant, final finish, wheels cleanser and seal. Thanks again to Dr. Beasley's for the free sample of the tire conditioner, another classy move!
I "cleaned" the car and wheels with brand new micro fibers and 50/50 mix water and alcohol to remove any oils. I used a misting bottle to apply a perfect even coat of water on the finish. (see sealant instructions). I used a yellow foam applicator, applied in strokes in circles, back and forth and up and down to insure maximum coverage. I did each section one at a time and broke the hood into 3 sections. I felt I probably used more sealant then recommended but, there was no streaking at all. You could tell there was product being applied as it felt and looked like a pretty transparent/very light hand lotion. The paint came out PERFECT! I will be keeping an eye out on the long term durability as I will drive the car often. If you have a matte finish on your SLS, give Dr. Beasley's a try. https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mbw...f82dcb8f87.jpg https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mbw...1c4f519323.jpg https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mbw...5c494a1d15.jpg https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mbw...a82d7d015a.jpg https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mbw...503c32cab0.jpg |

As I mentioned, I was going to keep an eye out on the durability of the matte Paint Sealant over time. Well it got it's first test already!
Took the Mrs. on an over-niter, valeted the car at the hotel and sure enough next morning it got sprinklered! We all know how bad that can be. Plus, I had to let it sit and bake in the sun for 5 hours while I played golf. So after a hour dive home, it was time to test out the Matte Final Finish. https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mbw...7d277512ee.jpg https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mbw...1e597eef4a.jpg https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mbw...dc28d4fbc9.jpg https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mbw...70904c51c8.jpg Game, Set, Match... as in water spots were no match for Dr. Beasley's. What you see in the photo's is ONE wipe. Off they went. Nice!! :y:y:D |
One day I will own one
