Review of Blackfire products

I wanted to post a review here rather than on a car care forum because I'm more of an active member here and just used that forum to do research. I used Chemical Guys citrus car wash to strip off last year's wax and sealant. I then did a light polish before using Blackfire Wet Diamond sealant on it. I let it cure overnight before using Blackfire Midnight Sun wax.

A little background, I am just an amateur at caring for the finish of cars. On one of my previous new cars I used Zaino products for years, and I was very happy with the results, but for this new car I wanted to try some different products. I researched quite a few products before I decided to try Blackfire, and I have to tell you the results blow anything away that I achieved with Zaino. Nothing against Zaino, but I just think Blackfire is better.

Also, don't mind my tires. The reason they are dirty because my driveway is not yet paved all the way up to my garage, so the tires are impossible to keep clean right now. Take a look at my pictures, and tell me what you think.

Good to hear, I just put some Wet Diamond Sealer on my car today and am worn out. I must be out of shape.

Aside from smelling like toxic waste, I love Wet Diamond. Nice review, car looks great!

I use the Midnight sun wax. The shine is hard to describe. It's like a candy apple shine. Very eye popping.

Every April I get a Professional detail so I only do the Midnight sun wax. The detailer has already clayed polished and waxed the car. I just add a coat of the wax every 6 weeks until Winter arrives. It's a great wax.

Glad to hear the detailing went so well. I'm also a huge fan of the Blackfire Wet Diamond All Finish Paint Protection it has a great balance of durable protection with an outstanding shine. TheBlackfire Midnight Sun Carnauba Paste Wax is the perfect finishing touch as well. Nice work!

If anyone wants to read reviews of other Blackfire products check out our product reviews section our Ask A Pro Blog Blackfire section.
