Subscribed to your channel, you will enjoy fusso coat I but totally agree on the powerlock its a dream to buff off and the surface is slicker, underrated for the money

[@ObsessiveCarDetailer]

A very warm welcome to the channel. Check out any of my videos and any issues or questions then just drop me a comment and I will always get back to you. Although I haven’t uploaded any videos for a while I will soon be back behind the camera 👍

Hi Martin yes you are right about Garage Therapy Products I am eagerly awaiting my arrival of V2 Wheel Shampoo and Citrus.

[@ObsessiveCarDetailer]

Hello Gerry, I’m good mate thanks. I’ve been really busy this year on so many other things and have decided to only get the camera out if I think it’s of use or of interest. Just returned from a trip to the West Country so need to get the camera out and give the old bus a clean soon

[@BrianW1612]

Good to see fireball is coming back to the UK. I used to own a pot of their Fusion Wax & that was incredible. Never got around to trying their chemicals but heard really good things about them.

[@ObsessiveCarDetailer]

Ive never used them before Brian and the samples are small but I will try to play with them

[@Audittr2108]

If memory serves, Fireball Fusion was their wax that people talked about a few years ago. It was one of the first SiO2 infused waxes when SiO2 was the latest thing in detailing.

[@ObsessiveCarDetailer]

I really enjoyed the few hours i was there for, gutted i didn't see you there, would loved to have said hi. I mainly came away with GT products, ones i dont have already. I saw the bucket, i trued hard to justify it but couldn't, like you, i have most of it already. Ive used the Fusso 3 times, i think it's a great product. All the best Martin. 👍

[@ObsessiveCarDetailer]

Glad you enjoyed it and if I go next year (& I think I will) then make sure you give me a shout👍

[@simonburns102]

Nice, I have X2 Og Fusso coats for both light & dark. One found on Ebay & and the other my neighbour gave me would say theirs not much difference or can see with the naked eye😊, I didn't get great longevity but may well have been down to a little clogging up. Trouble is, as with most of us, the sheer amount of products available today, I keep grabbing GT Sigma or Luxury Gloss as so easy to work with. Just purchased an Alpine white 3 series touring, so I will give the fusso another go after the sigma. Also, regarding leather treatment/conditioner, I purchased a bottle of luxury leather, seriously impressed as it had never seen any cleaner what so ever 😆.

[@ObsessiveCarDetailer]

Hi Simon, I’m looking forward to trying the fission as I’ve liked their other waxes and heard so much good reports of it. Like any protection product a lot of the longevity is down to preparation. It depends on how much you want longevity I guess. If the car is regularly maintained then it’s not really an issue. Give the new car a good decon before adding the wax and Alpine white will pop. Let me know how it works out

I did the first few waxstocks working on one of the stands doing demos when it was in Peterborough. I really enjoyed the first one but after that it became a bit repetitive with not much difference from one year to the next. Ive not been since it moved to Coventry, might need to give it a try next year but i normally miss it until i find out that its been and gone. Martin, have you tried Garage Therapy Dash Serum? Im looking for something that just adds a touch of something to the interior plastics but keeps it factory looking and leaves a fresh smell behind.

[@ObsessiveCarDetailer]

I will try to go next year and be good to catch up. I have GT Dash Serum on my shall but not used it yet as most of my car is leather interior so I’m not much help mate. What I would say though is very few GT products disappoint

[@anguslean4058]

@@ObsessiveCarDetailerkey to suing the 12 month Fusso Soak the applicator with water and then ring it out Put on the thinnest coat possible If you do this the wax will flash much quicker I only wait about a minute before I buff it off with a microfiber and then use a second microfiber to buff it again That can should do 30-35 applications Let it cure for 24 hours Very important to let it gas out After 24 hours you can either apply another coat for longevity or you can top it with Fusso King of Gloss ( excellent product works the same way as Fusso 12 months ) or you can use Fusso mirror shine which is amazingly easy to use You literally wipe it on and then wipe it off No waiting at all. I’m in America and I have 4 brand new cans of the old Fusso Soft 99 12 month wax It will surely last me my lifetime and then some.

Fusso Coat, more BH DSW or IW Synergy lite. I can't make my mind up. What do you think? And don't say all 3...... please😅

[@ObsessiveCarDetailer]

As always I will give an honest opinion and it will upset a lot of people but I have to say it as I find it. IW Synergy & BH double speed wax have both been removed from my shelf and increasingly Soft99 products have replaced them as I think they are vastly superior. The waxes I have tried to date on the Soft99 range are very good and great value for money. Jon on his Forensic channel has done a few comparisons and if I remember rightly Fusso Coat came out top. So for me a clear winner is soft99. Hope that's of some help
