Polymer Net Shield

Over the last couple of years I tried many different products. Sealants, waxes, glazes, carnauba, everything! Some of those products were not cheap. My experiences with all those products varied because of the differences of the actual product. Some lasted awhile, and some were gone the next month. Some were a pain to apply and others were much simpler and faster. However, this product blows them all away. EASE OF USE. Very simply and easy to apply! I used one of those small applicators by P21S and it was easy and fast. Not to mention that its a spray-on product, their is also no waiting time as well. You wipe on the product and wipe off before it dries. So all I did was spray some of the product on the P21S applicator and go for a 2ft X 2ft area on my car. Also, you can use this product on plastics (such as bumpers and other plastics around the exterior of your car) and it leaves off a stock matte new looking finish. You can also use this product on windows instead of rainx as it gives off incredible beading and allows clearer visibility in the rain. APPLICATION. The product, unlike carnauba and some of the other heavy sealants out there, is very light and slick. Its almost as if you were cleaning your windows with glass cleaner but just a tad more sticky. Its very easy to over use the product so be careful with how much you spray as a spray or two can cover a lot of surface area on the vehicle you are working on. Pressure isn't needed as well. As mentioned before, its like glass cleaner, you apply it over the surface you want and then as soon as you applied it you go to wipe it off and the product has bonded. "SLICKNESS" Before purchasing this product, I read some negative reviews about how this product fails to give that "slick" feeling when touching the paint and I'm here to address that issue from what I have experienced so far. Firstly, one has to keep in mind that this is not a wax but a sealant. Sealants were never really known for giving off that "slick/smooth" feeling on the paint like waxes or glazes do (although there are a few that I used that did a very good job of giving the "wax feeling"). However, in general sealants are not very well known for that. Back to my experience. After applying it, I didn't really examine or touch it to feel the "slickness" until the next day. The paint feels very soft and does have a little bit of slickness to it. Keep in mind that this may vary by the car you drive, as some manufacturers paint their cars with hard paints (Audi) and other with softer paints (Toyota). In my situation I drive a 2014 Toyota and the paint is very soft. It may be due to the fact that the car is brand new, therefore the paint is still fresh and in its prime condition, but from experience I can tell that this product does add a bit of "slickness" to the paint. With all due respect, if you want the "slickness" feeling, go get a good carnauba and apply that on your car every 2-3 months. This is a sealant and will most likely exceed any carnauba's durability. In fact, the manufacturer claims that you can layer with this product so its not standalone. What this means is that you simply can go ahead and apply the sealant and top if off with a carnauba, or vice versa, which ever way you want it and it will be fine. However, I don't recommend topping it off or using it with another sealant on the same car. Generally, some detailers add a layer of sealant (such as this product) and top it off with a carnauba or a wax of their choice to give it some extra shine. In all honesty thou, this product is great as a standalone. Some sealants don't add any shine but have a sole purpose of strictly protecting your paint from harsh contaminants and what not, but this product does leave some what of a "wet" look on the paint so that was enough to satisfy me and keep me from the gruesome task of applying a carnauba over the sealant. DURABILITY. I will be editing this review in a few months and update you guys on the durability and how long it lasted for me. I live in California so the air quality is not so good and contamination is all over the place, and we have scorching summers. Keep in mind that the manufacturer and other detailers out there claim that the product lasts for 6 months in any kind of condition, so ill let everyone know how that holds up a little bit later. A quick mention about beading. It rained a little bit last night and I was able to see the beading. Yes I actually came outside and stared at my car roof as the rain kept going (neighbors must think im crazy). The beading was definitely on par with some of the "higher-end" products and carnaubas that I have used in the past and I am well satisfied. FINAL VERDICT. My Final Verdict. This product is a game changer in the detail industry! Not only does it save a ton of time when applying, but it also lasts a very long time (6months stated by manufacturer). Its also not an expensive product. Some of the waxes and sealants I own are worth $40-$60 a piece and that is not something people outside of the detail industry will spend their money on. The ease of application and the durability of this product is a well worth $30 investment for anyone, pro or weekend warrior. The product is extremely simply and easy to apply and does not take much time on an average car. I would definitely recommended this to anyone so if you are on the verge of purchasing this product but need that extra push to hit the buy button, hopefully this is it.

In increments of 5 years once in a while a superior product comes along. ...and this is one of them After using this for a year and a long history of detailing cars, this is a truly amazing product. ..super hydrophobic and longevity this is my new favorite. A note to those detailing ...not all paints are created equal. ..that being said ...results for different cars is subjective with any product . But for my testimony it's a super product. Update; I want to address some comments on this product. some have not seen the results I have, so i need to address these concerns 1st... you will have the best luck on a new or just buffed out paint 2nd....Yes you can apply this on ALL surfaces... plastic, rubber, glass and factory decals..but again would only do this on a new vehicle...not oxidized surfaces for the most effect. 3rd..do not apply in sun or hot surface and do not let dry before buff off One of the vehicles I applied this on was a new vehicle that was on a dealers lot for 7 months, I machined buffed the paint w/ Meguires MO316, then the applied the Net shield after, the reason for this is even as a new vehicle it will have developed some slight oxidation in that time frame sitting w/ out protection. another vehicle brand new custom ordered fresh out of the factory 30 days old...this is where you will see the best results as there is zero oxidation on it...and yes it works awesome on a that textured black plastic trim common on most vehicles...one year later the plastic still looks like I just picked it up...and this is without and post dressings...I don't use any other products on It. Just reapply Net shield again after 1 year. Update; 2yrs into using this product exclusively, haven't found anything that comes close for an all surface protection...had one vehicle driven to Austin Tx this year sitting parked under live oak trees in the rain, acidic drippings all over it for several days, drove it back home 800 miles and it looked like the application was finished, got out the pressure washer and foam cannon and washed it, cant believe its still kicking ass and still beading like new. will continue using this great product. The only negative if it is a negative is this is not a super slick feeling coating, but who cares, i'm not testing it for wind tunnel results.

This is the first detailing product I've been excited about in 10 years. Pros: - Protection truly lasts 6 months in Pacific Northwest frequent rain (been using for 18 months now). - Paint looks deeper and more liquid after application. - Easy & quick to apply when done correctly. - Car is easier to clean and stays cleaner longer between washes. - Water FLIES off the car (Comparing primarily against Klasse All In One) Cons: - Paint does not feel as slick as Klasse or Autoglym - More expensive per application - I got 6 cars out of my first 11.5 oz bottle ($26). A $35 1 liter bottle of Klasse can last me 4-5 years, but protection only good for 2, 3 months tops. How I apply: Prep: Paint should be clean (feel smooth like glass to the touch). If it feels rough you may need to compound, clay bar, polish, or some combo to get paint properly prepared. Paint should be dry. Paint should be cool - work early morning or in shade. Sonax says Polymer Netshield works best if applied directly to paint, not on top of wax. If I've used another wax to prep (polish, compound, etc) I strip it off the paint by gently wiping with paper towels with some rubbing alcohol ($1.29 per liter) on them. Application: I spray a quarter second of product on Sonax (417300) Application Sponge ($7), then gently rub the sponge on roughly 2' by 2' section of paint. I wipe over each section 2-3 times with different patterns (left to right, up and down, etc). Right after application, I use the microfiber cloth in my left hand to immediately wipe the wet product off. Wiping requires almost no effort on my part; if you're having to press hard to buff off you may have let that section get too dry. Application process to me feels as fast or faster than waxing a car with orbital buffer & all-in-one wax. It did take me 1-2 cars worth of applying to get the hang of "juggling" applicator sponge, sonax bottle, and microfiber cloth. I did my mom's barely driven always garaged car in May 2018, and Oct 2019 her car STILL looks awesome. Polymer NetShield costs a little more, but totally worth it to me: better results, crazy water bead, and longer protection.

High quality product. Used to restore my 1970 camaro coupe soft vinyl top. Top is 30 years and didnt want to switch from the OE two part to new 3 part. Went from dull and faded to shiny and vibrant. Well worth the price. Took a few coats and some patience. Ease to use. Highly recommend!!

I've never seen a car sheet water the way it does after applying this product. I have a black car and only noticed a few spots where it caused streaking on the paint. My application method was fairly simple - spray some on the sponge, maybe spray a bit on the panel, spread around, wipe off immediately. I applied after jeweling the paint with SF4500 and removing most of the polishing oils with a quick wash, so the surface was fairly well-prepped. I didn't notice any reduction or enhancement in the gloss department after applying Sonar PNS. Maybe a marginal cold / sealant-like reflection in direct sunlight, but that's completely subjective. Water sheets off the surface like a glass coating. It's impressive and really helps with drying time at first. However, I noticed that after the first wave of heavy pollen we had, the beading and sheeting properties had diminished quite a bit. I'm on my third wash since applying, and I'd say both characteristics have reduced to about 25% of what they were after I first applied. I've used Wizards Super Wash, Gold Class, and Zymol Auto Bath - nothing super harsh. It seems like others have experienced the same issue with this product. I'm not sure if it is weak against acidic contaminants in general, or just pollen, but that's just my experience. Still a great product. Might be better-suited for using after pollen season.

I have tried most of the products out there but have always gone back to liquid glass. I heard about this on some of the auto detailing forums and decided to give it a try. Thus far, very happy with the results, will see how it holds up over time, This is a bit different than most products in that it comes as an aerosol. The stated reason for this is that it catalyzes on exposure to air. I applied to a pad and then did very small sections at a time, followed by a microfiber cloth. It goes on easy but dries fast so do small sections. If it does dry, just deactivate by going back over it with the pad. There are some videos available on you tube. When dry I provides a great shine and beads water like crazy. Another nice thing is that you can use it on black trim and even glass. Sort of like a super version of RainX for your windshield. After a good wash,clay bar, polish if needed. After applying the Sonax you can also apply a coat of carnauba wax for depth although you may be perfectly happy just with the Sonax. I also tried it OVER some black wax and it worked well. Sonax products are very high quality. Their wheel cleaner is like nothing else out there.

Really good stuff I use it on my wrap on my business vans I sprayed it on my plastic bumpers makes everything look really good in black and protects everything really well. Only thing I'm frustrated about is that I was paying $29.99 for it for a while now and now it's went up to almost $40 a can this month.

SPNS is truly a very interesting product but the right person. It works like Magic, water just flys off the paint, but has a highly unconventional application method and for me spotty reliability. APPLICATION: I apply this by spraying it onto a yellow foam applicator and spreading it over a 6-9 square inch area, it goes on easy enough, though there is a very unique, and frankly strange stickiness, and squeakiness I've never experiences with a paint sealant. Taking it off however is the tricky part, because of how it drys, you need to apply it quickly an take it off almost immediately, if you let it sit for like 30 seconds you've screwed yourself because now it doesn't want to come off. So if you get a hang of the application its a actually a very easy and clean application, no overused product soaked into you towels, no messy applicator and a pretty quick application. DURABILITY When you apply this right water behaves like it's coated, it just beads up and flys off, so I can only assume it creates a nice strong layer, duration however has been spotty, I live in the Northeast and so summers can get hot with abundant pollen and that has seemed to dull both the hydrophobic properties and durability noticeably. In winter surprisingly it does very well, 3-4 months with salt no problem, but pollen it doesn't like. VALUE Now the spray can has 7.1 oz of product, and while that might not be much for a regular sealant that might not seem like much but by virtue of the application and how unbelievably thin it goes Ive gotten about 5 applications of it on my mid sized E350 Mercedes and might have used 20-30 percent (aerosol can so hard to judge), so it certainly does go on a long way.

protective layer, and excellent water repulsion properties, which will keep dust and stains away. be careful when applying,apply with clean microfiber

Das Polymer Netshield nutze ich seit einiger Zeit und komme immer wieder gerne darauf zurück. Habe einiges an Wachsen und Keramik Versiegelungen verarbeitet, welche für sich genommen in manchen Disziplinen das Polymer Netshield übertrumpfen. Für den Preis gibt es aber einfach kaum ein Lackschutzprodukt, welches so eine gute Leistung zeigt. Einziges Manko ist meiner Meinung nach die Haptik der Oberfläche, die es hinterlässt. Sie wirkt leicht rau, was sich jedoch nur bei direkten Anfassen bemerkbar macht. Auf Schutz oder Glanz hat das aber kein negativen Einfluss. Der Glanz erfährt auch keine besondere Steigerung, so habe ich zumindest den Eindruck. Beide Punkte lassen sich vernachlässigen, wenn man regelmäßig Detailer oder ähnliche Produkte verwendet. Das sind jedoch nur Überlegungen für absolute Pflegefanatiker. Die positiven Aspekte des Produktes sind vor allem die langanhaltende Schutzwirkung auf dem Lack mit einem unfassbar guten Wasserabperlverhalten. Außerdem lässt es sich relativ zügig verarbeiten. Für Ungeübte wird die Auftragsweise, welche ein recht schnelles Abnehmen erfordert etwas ungewöhnlich sein, jedoch ist dies eigentlich ein Vorteil, da das Produkt nicht lange ablüften muss. Bei Fahrzeugen, die ich aufarbeite nutze ich es fast immer als Standard-Lackschutz. Nach stundenlangen Polieren bin ich froh, wenn der finale Auftrag des Lackschutzes verhältnismäßig einfach und schnell geht. Das klappt hier sehr gut. Eine Vorbehandlung mit Isopropanol-Wasser-Gemisch oder dem Sonax Paint Prepare ist grundsätzlich zu Empfehlen. Habe es zum Nachlegen nach ein paar Monaten einfach direkt auf den gewaschenen Lack aufgetragen und keine Einbußen in der Standzeit feststellen können. Das liegt wahrscheinlich am Lösemittelanteil. Die Standzeit ist je nach Lack und Beanspruchung unterschiedlich. Bei manchen Fahrzeugen lässt es nach drei bis vier Monaten nach, in der Regel aber hält es über ein halbes Jahr. Unlackierte Kunststoffe werden gut abgedunkelt und bekommen einen Schutz wie der Lack. Alleine diese Eigenschaft macht es zu einem super Allrounder. Der Brilliant Shine Detailer ist die perfekte Ergänzung dazu, um die Haltbarkeit der Versiegelung immer weiter nach hinten zu schieben. Gemessen am Aufwand für den Auftrag und dem Preis gibt es kaum ein Lackschutzprodukt, welches dem Polymer Netshield das Wasser reichen kann. Daher kann man es uneingeschränkt empfehlen.

Ultimate…….amazing

Utilisez après avoir fait une finition rénovation phares avec des tampons de différents grain acheter sur Amazon. Le résultat est impeccable. Il suffit de l appliquer avec un tissu doux et non pulucheux et de l essayer sans laisser sécher avec un micro fibre de qualité. Il est conseillé par le fabricant 2 couches pour une protection jusqu'à 6 mois, pour ma part vue que c été des phares rénové j'ai appliqué 4 couches avec une séparation de 24 h entre les 2 x 2 couches c est à dire 2 couches puis attente 24h à l abris de la poussière et des éléments naturels puis 2 autres couches, lcela aura surement aucune incidence sur la durée de protection mais c'est juste pour être sûr que c est bien protégé, le résultat est impeccable par contre ne pas laisser sécher après application de la couche essayer aussitôt avec une micro fibre de qualité si non sa colle et sa laisse des traces de même sur la carrosserie et surtout que le support ne soit pas trop chaud si non même problème mais très rapidement pas le temps d essayer et travailler sur de petites surfaces à la fois c'est plus facile et moins risqué d avoir un mauvais résultats.
