Glare Knockout

[blueoval]

Best used after the bottle has been preheated in a hot bucket of water for at least 15mins.

Found using it while very warm, it spreads better over the panels, and its effect is improved greatly than not pre-heating it.

Recommend it for all vehicles with lots of pre-existing grime and discoloration in paintwork due to lack of maintenance.

Can be applied with a DA polisher and I have found using a Orange Pad has best results. But again, it depends on level of contamination thats on the vehicle at the time. Individual assessment is advised prior to application.

Hmmm.  I wouldn't have thought of warming polish products up before use.  Would this be a process worth trying on other products? 

Other than that, great write up mate.

I only do it for this product as it gets 'clumpy' while in a cold state. The heat liquefies the clumpiness and makes the product easier to apply and spread. As for other products, Im not sure, you could try it, but Im not sure what advantage that would hold.

very well said Shav. I've been telling Wiggy and others to boil or warm up the bottle of knockout
as we use it, the knockout starts running out of its lubricants. thus the need to boil it or heat in warm to hot water

its also beneficial to apply Glare products on a very hot day. summer days of 33 - 45 C temps will make the glare be easier to use, fill in defects much more and become part of the whole clear coat faster

Nice write up shav!!!

Heating up polishes hmmm.... i know the glare range works well in the heat, as matt and shav have said.
i have left polishes out in the sun on 40 degree days before, both on purpose and also by mistake and they seem to work just as fine heated up as they do when cool.
I find 106ff when it is slightly warm works very well... i think this is due to the way the polish breaks down.

In the old workshop at mile end the workshop would reach temps of 60 degrees when it was very hot and we had our polishes in there and they worked fine... dont no if there was any major benefit, but it didnt do any damage.

The only real benefit of having the products preheated is for application ease. As for the results well they speak for themselves if the application of the product is working to its best potential straight out of the bottle.
