Question Anyone know "Top Coat" product?

First off, This is my first post to this forum. I originally posted this to the 993Turbo tech forum, and I don't know how to make a link so I'll repeat the essence here.

I met a guy (Rod Graff) who distributes a product called "Top Coat". After a brief demo, he offered to detail my car for me. I'm not affiliated with him or this product in any way. But here is what I found... this stuff is really easy to use (even easier than Rejex) and works great on glass as well as leather (I even did my glass shower doors). My car has never looked so good.

Have you guys ever used this stuff? I'm sold.

Looks great!
You have to be more specific on the brand - is it made by chemical guys or mothers?

Arena Red 993, my favorite.

Nice gloss and finish!

Thanks for all the kind comments on Rufus.

This sounds weird, but I also used this stuff on my glass shower doors. Now I'm a bit ****, and always squeegee and wipe the glass after each shower. But there was still a bit of film that persisted and didn't come off. This stuff made the glass really clean. But here's the weird part... after this morning's shower, I used my squeegee as usual... it "glided" as if there was a coating on the glass. Duh. There is. Now I'm thinking about trying this on my hardwood floors. Its nuts.

Here are some tech specs: maufacturer: Ducora, Inc
ingredients: Polydimthysiloxane & Acolhol Ethoxylates

I'm not quite sure about how you can order this stuff, but you can try this email for questions. This is the guy that detailed my car... he is a Porsche nitwit, and a distributor for Top Coat: Rod Graff thegraffhaus@aol.com

While I admit Steve you always have something to make Rufus a beautiful car. the
Gloss-it.com products are the easiest to use on a black car ever. I had Mammoth HARD
sprinkler water on my BMW X5 and my AMG and it made the both look deep and pro done.
By the way A new GT3 RS is on its way to me. Hope you are well!

Paul,

I'm sure that Gloss-it is a great product. So many to choose from, so little objective testing. Congrats on your new GT3... I've lost count... will this be your 3rd GT3? They are amazing cars! As I've said before... if I didn't own Rufus, I'd be looking at a GT3.
