X-Kote 1967 Mustang. Paint Restoration, Protection and Scratch Repair

X-Kote is a revolutionary product that is not a wax or polish, but a coating applied to your vehicles finish after it has been prepped, wet sanded and polished. The X-Kote paint restoration coating cures and bonds permanently to the factory finish leaving a smooth, clear and deep coating. The result is an incredibly vivid colour with depth and shine. As Kote bonds to the factory finish it also fills in any scratches and causes them to all but disappear. But most importantly as X-Kote restores your factory finish and is not a wax that will wash off, that brand new shine will last as long as if it were a new.

A question about Touch-Less washes

I had a customer ask me this question;

Ryan...is the drive through wash hard on the paint with the chemicals?

So I thought I would post my response, just in case anyone else is curious;

There are two thoughts on this.
Yes, touch-less wash cleaning soaps can be strong, but there is no friction to damage the clear coat.
Hand washing is good, but it does wear the clear coat and often when a vehicle is dirty you are essentially rubbing the grit over your vehicles paint as you hand wash it.
In my experience the cars that look the worst over time are the ones that get hand washed often and rarely waxed.
The very best thing you can do for your vehicle is to wash it via a touch-less wash 2 to 4 times per month.
Then once a month hand wash it, as a touch-less wash does tend to leave a film over time and finally be sure to wax your vehicle at least twice a year.
A well waxed vehicle will have a barrier between the grit and the paint to help protect it when hand washing, plus a touch-less wash will work much better on a well waxed car.
Hope that helps!
Ryan.
