Sparkling Graphite with Project Awesome

I had a chance to give the car a quick once over with ONR (Optimum No Rinse) and then applied some Project Awesome Sealant, which I've had for a while but not had the chance to use - I was very pleased with the results

Project Awesome is nice stuff - was a little pricey when it came out though -
Luckily I managed to buy a bottle from some one for a lot less than the original price

To be honest, whilst I've used most of the currently available detailing products, the G-technique range is not one I've tried yet -

The project awesome is meant to be very similar to this -http://www.glossitonline.com/gloss_d...ure_gloss.html

It was jointly developed between Polished Bliss and Gloss it -

Unfortunately for my wallet detailing is somewhat of a hobby, I would estimate I have around £3k of Product and Equipment so this wasn't a biggie, plus I didn't pay £150 for it
I have seen it on lighter coloured cars particularly silver and it did look really good on there too.....

Looks superb, I take it that your car has had a full machine polish as well.
