A few days ago I once again applied Gray's Ultimate Poly-Seal to my car's finish (second time since I initially used his Professional Paint Sealant last May) and I just can't say enough good things about this fine product. [^] It goes on and comes off like butter on hot toast leaving a deep glass-like shine. Now, even when my car is dirty, it still LOOKS GREAT!
[8D] What, you doubt me--well, a picture is worth a 1000 words--so, check it out. [8]![]() Keep up the good work, turbomangt! [^] [?] |

Gary, what kind of grille is that? looks too cool to be an overlay type, who makes it? looks great on your car. Gary

Thanks. The grille is made by E & G. It is polished billet aluminum. They also make the same horizontal grille chome plated but I prefer this one as it has a "black-out look" and you don't see the vertical support bars/fins. Installation is easy. Instead of painting behind it, as suggested by the manufacturer, I used black duct-tape which worked fine. [8D] You can purchase this grille from PT Tuning of PT Warehouse.

Gary. Is the polyseal that you sell the same as polyseal the car dealers want to charge you a couple of hundred dollars for when you buy a new car?

CJJ, most dealers around here charge between $700-1100 for a paint seal application. The sealant I sell at $10 a bottle (which will do four cars) is similar to what dealers are getting rich on. My poly seal is a spray product that has some of the qualities as the paint sealant. I suggest using it in between washes AFTER you have sealed your car. It gives longer durability and improved depth clarity to the finish. Here is a secret, I charge the lamborghini dealer near me $150 to paint seal exotic cars, (a fair price for 3 and half hours of work) they charge the customer $750. You can do it for $10, strange but true. I do suggest using the paint cleaner before the sealant just to ensure you get the right results. Now you are up to $20, with the money you save you can buy more MODS!!!!!!!!!!

i did the cleaner with a DA buffer, then the sealant by hand, a week later applied the poly seal spray and wow. That poly seal is dynamite stuff + I can do it in 1/4 the time of a wax job + no white residue on plastic or rubber!!

I too like the grill and would like to install one on my silver PT. Did you install it yourself? If so is ther much to installing it??
|

I did install it myself and it was not difficult. The top section goes right into place where the stock grille was and installing the bottom section requires only four screws. Good luck.

Thanks for your help....One last thing...you say that you used black duct tape instead of paint....what area did you have to tape over....
|
|
|||
|
thought of one more question...with the billit polished finish is ther any special care that has to be given to it to keep the shine...does it fade over time if you dont polish it...
