thanks guys

yes Dalamar, you can use it on basically any smooth surface. application depends on the condition of item to be polished... in most cases by hand works very well. after doing a 26' Ski Nautique with it to remove oxidation i dont recommend using it on a whole car, etc. not that it doesnt work extremely well, its just a PITA on something that big.

here's some pics of that engine bay we did with Flitz... this is about as much painted surface as you want to do ;)

thats double the price, he does ship to canada but only air. I dont think I need that much anyways. Longshot but would you be willing to sell me like 1/4 of the amount that comes in those cans? Ill give you $10 for it? Just put it in anybottle? lemme know no rush like I mean one u order some off that guy on ebay for cheap. If not no biggie. How many galons/liters are in those anyways?

Thanks for the deal Michael.

So which do u guys perfer the paste or the liquid? Im assuming the paste works better? Seems that the liquid would be a breeze to apply. Do they both last as long, shine up as well? What about for wheels.

Thanks :banana:

i like them both and Flitz in itself is easy to apply and remove for the most part. the paste is my favorite though :thumb:

edit; btw, paste is not really a good definition of what it is... its more like a cream

The main difference between the paste and the liquid is that the paste has a 6-month anti-tarnish formula in it. Simply put, that means it will protect for up to 6 months. I prefer the paste myself. It is not difficult to apply at all, but the liquid metal polish is "a little bit easier" to apply. Now don't get me wrong, the liquid metal is a great polish, but when we polish stuff we want it to last as long as possible. For a car, motorcycle, boat, etc. I would recommend using the paste. :thumb:

Ok ill go for the paste then.

Noticed you are in Canada. Send me an email and I will manually process an order for you. We do not typically ship to Canada, but I can make exceptions. Anyone else, shoot me an email. michael @ primetimesolutions . com <---- email is like that so the spyders don't pick it up.
