Detailing Product Review - Stay Fresh Car Care

I just wanted to share my experience and a few thoughts about a few Stay Fresh Car Care products I received. They are a new company, started in 2012 and they are trying to do their best to make products we want and will use. When it comes to washing and detailing, I'm extremely picky and once I find a product that I enjoy and in my opinion does the job right, I stick with it. With that said, onto the review.

1st product: Back To Black
- Stay Fresh Car Care describes the product as, a superior chemical that combines shinning agents and sealant ability to bring life back to plastic pieces, vinyl, trim molding, wheel liners, engine bays and interior pieces. By the way, the smell is amazing as well...its hard to explain, so maybe Stay Fresh can detail further.

- For my purposes, I used it strictly on the wheel liners. My FR-S is less than a year old, but due to all the Texas rain, snow, etc they were very dirty. I applied the product directly to the wheel liners and used a microfiber towel to wipe it away.

- Overall, I was impressed with the product and honestly have been looking for something like this for a long time.

- Product Link:
http://www.stayfreshcarcare.com/#!pr.../back-to-black

RATING: A (I need to see how long the product lasts and if I see any improvement over time in my wheel liners).

2nd Product: Quick Detailer
- Stay Fresh Car Care describes the product as, a high gloss product that'll remove dust, fingerprints, dirt that settled in, etc, while adding UV ray protection.

- I applied this product directly after washing my FR-S. I made sure my car was cool to the touch and not directly in any sunlight.

- Overall...wow...just WOW! After applying it, the product added an amazing mirror shine to my car, plus a smooth, silky surface. Just have a look at the pictures.

- Product Link:
http://www.stayfreshcarcare.com/#!pr...quick-detailer

RATING: A+

Overall, I highly recommend these products and the guys at Stay Fresh Car Care. Even though they are fairly new, they seem to listen to their customers, have some great products, plus have a 100% guarantee, as put on every bottle they sale.

Also, have a look at the pictures...I think they speak for themselves. The first one is an example of how dirty my wheel liners were. The second and third one is seriously a mirror reflection from using the Quick Detailer. The houses being built in the pictures are about 30 yards away and you can see it clear as day. I tried to get a close-up picture of the wheel liner, but they didn't turn out right (you can see them a bit in the side shots). The last one are just the products I used.

I'm tagging Stay Fresh on this review so they can answer any questions beyond my review of these two products.

They really do make amazing products. Their quick detailer is amazing, it offers great coverage and wipes off easily.

Guzic, I agree with you so far. I've only touched two of their products and impressed. Regarding the detailer that's a good point. The output spray is sort of this halo ring and your right...it does wipe off without really an extra effort. I cannot wait to see my car tomorrow morning in the sun to get a full effect of the Quick Detailer.

Check out my 2 reviews in this subforum. I've tried out most of their products and have pics included. Their entire line is great.

Looks good but man, I wish the name didn't sound so much like a women's deodorant product for you know where...

The microfibers are great. The blue MF towel is 850 gsm for under $5! Great stuff at great prices. I'm really picky on what towels I use but these are great.

Cool, thanks. I'll look into it. You can never have too many microfiber towels.

Too funny!

It's a cool name I think...plus the labels are pretty slick.

But I guess it's all in if the product works. Give it a try, if you'd like.
