I tried this combo this past week, first doing a complete detail of my car then finishing off with Americana last week and this weekend a wash with the shampoo and rinse / DS followed by BG and another coat of Americana. I also tried out for the first time, the Adam's glass microfiber towels / glass cleaner....simply amazing! I now DO WINDOWS!
I think the BG and additional coat of Americana added some wetness to the shine, so I would say it was a worthwhile experiment. I noticed a couple things as I applied the products. The BG seemed like it took forever to dry to a haze....I applied it to the whole car before I could take it off ( the humidity was around 65% might have something to do with it ). I guess that's neither here nor there as it did seem to add some wetness to the look of my finish. The Americana on the other hand dried very quickly and the trick was to do a small panel at a time and get it off with the single or double white micro's, before it hardened on the surface. All in all, it went pretty well, but I wasn't real crazy about the cure time on the BG or the ease of removing it. The original formula BG on video 6 looked like it was quicker to haze and easier to take off. But maybe the new product is longer lasting or glossier. Can anyone clarify this? Hopefully the BG also did not detract from the life of the Americana wax, cause it looks SIMPLY MAVELOUS DALING! I know...I worry too much.
