Werkstat is dead easy to use. Spray on, buff off. Done.

Just wondering, how do the waxes and sealants differ in ease of use? You mentioned that people tend to like sealants because they're easier to use, but a few of them are a pain to work with though the results are very good.

I still need to drop by for some wheel cleaner sometime when there's time, any idea when you might be in the shop over the next bit? Thanks Ken.

Most sealants are dead easy to use. You apply them, wait for hazing to occur and remove. Waxes can be very finicky depending on temp, humidity etc. Some waxes have to be applied and removed one panel at a time instead of applying to the whole car. If you apply a wax too thick and it dries, it can be a major issue trying to get it off. Waxes do tend to look better on dark solids though as they leave a deeper, wetter finish whereas sealants leave a brighter finish. All the sealants we sell are easy to use. I am in the shop today for the most part, Friday and probably Saturday.

Let me know if you want the kits changed in any way ie; add more items like wheel brushes etc for a more advanced kit.

If they are actual scratches in the plastic, your only option will be to repair / redye the area. A lot of the new plastics have a coating on them on once it's scuffed or scratched, it's done.
