Resistall NG2 Question for My Toyota Highlander 2015


binkuang

Question

Hi, everyone

  My car have been purchased the Resistall NG2 Exterior Paint Protection and inside protection for 7 years. it cost 795$,  after the big snow in Boston. I found some scratch on my front cover. I want to remove the light scratch use the Meguiar's G17216 Ultimate Compound, but I ask them is that ok to use that? the answer is "Any kind of clay bar/ wet sand type procedure will indeed remove the sealant from the pain."  they said the resistall NG2 chemical is on the clear coat.  and I don't know if I can use the Meguiar's G17216 Ultimate Compound? if I use, it maybe remove the protection for the clear coat. I don't understand it really cost that much money? They also said you don't have to wax your car up to 7 years. really?

If you use the compound on it, yes, it will remove the paint protection. What they sold you was a sealant that they say lasts 7 years.

 

There can be a big debate about the actual longevity of these types of sealants, but there isn't a debate on removing it with an abrasive action like compounding (or claying). You bought an expensive sealant for the car, you may not want to next time. For now, you have two choices - 1) live with the scratches. 2) take care of them and knowing you removed the protection, apply a wax or sealant.

:o I already to use the compound, apply to a Soft Foam, and very light easy circle motion by hand. I hope the sealant is not easy to remove. I hope still there. if I use the clay bar, it will be dead. How do I know the sealant still there? is that the Meguiar's G17216 Ultimate Compound just like the clay bar smooth system kit or polish? are they the same?

I'm not too familiar with the Megs line, but they say it cuts fast, so it is at least fairly abrasive. I know it was expensive, but don't worry too much about removing the sealant.  Put a nice coat of wax or sealant on and you'll be fine.

It's an over hyped sealant.  It will not last 7 years.  I am familiar with ultimate compound and that will remove the dealer applied sealant.  Clay would as well.  Basically anything that abrades the surface.  You will need to apply another sealant or a wax.  It all depends on if you are looking for long protection or looks. 

 

By the way you may want to head over to the Meguiar's forum for more info as this forum is dedicated to Adam's products.

Did you pay $800 for a sealant that lasts 7 years but yet requires you to go to the dealership for maintenance application every 4-5 months?

I m new, first car. paid 695$ for resistall ng2. no maintenance application after. I never go there again. I purchased the Toyota highlander in Boch Toyota in Norwood in MA, when I pick up the car, They said the contract is not ready. I m confused. The contract I already sign for it last week. why is not ready. They said sent it to me. wait two weeks nothing. I went there talk to the manager, They give me a three separate printer paper with the resistall NG5 695$ on it. I ask for the contract I sign for it, the one with color and long paper. They don't have that. and the resistall already put on my car. can't refund. I m so mad. but I want the car. nothing I can do. The just add that up. and the third paper still have your signature on it. that is true story. I don't want it. but................

I don't believe the stuff will last that long. Now, with that kit they gave you, go ahead and take care of the scratches the best you can (just use the least aggressive method you can to get the desired result - and don't over think the problem) and reapply the paint protector renewer by the instructions on the bottle. A thin, thin, thin coat is all you will need.

 

If you haven't yet, pick up a tub of Americana from Adams. The tub will last and last, it is really easy to use, and it will add to the protection on your car and help it look better.

 

Next time you buy a car, be willing to walk away if they want to charge you for that sealant. Actually, be willing to walk away from any deal if it isn't right. I've found the best approach in buying a new car is to walk out - they don't want you to go and will usually change their stance.
