Detailing paintwork is the art of creating optical illusions, and in this art, Auto-Finesse Illusion is a true master. Made from a highly innovative blending of natural and man-made ingredients, Illusions sole purpose is to push the concept of a Show Car Wax as far as it will go. Red glows like a molten pool of lava, metallic flake sparkles like a diamond in the sun, white assumes a gloss that has never before been seen, and black becomes a portal to another universe. Is it magic, or just an Illusion?
All Auto-Finesse waxes are carefully blended by hand in Great Britain from the finest quality natural ingredients available, and bring with them the same philosophy of performance and beauty as the rest of our detailing products. The waxes we use treat your vehicle with nature’s own defense against the elements, giving it water repellency, and resistance to environmental pollution (Including UV-fading, acid rain, and bird droppings.). Lets take a look at what else makes Auto-Finesse Illusion special
Auto-Finesse Desire contains 48% T1 Grade Brazilian Carnauba Wax by volume, with the remainder being made up by synthetic polymers, and gloss-intensifying oils.
Dripping wetness, startling gloss, paint so deep you can almost get lost; popping flake, and rich, glass-like reflections it can only be one thing An Auto-Finesse Illusion.
Illusion can provide 2-3 months of jaw-dropping beauty and durability between coats. With a delicious strawberry liquorice scent, and effortless application, few want to wait that long.
Strong water beading and sheeting performance has always been important to us at Auto-Finesse, and even with a dedicated show wax like Illusion, rain becomes entertainment.
A true show wax should feel special to apply, and be very forgiving of application style. Auto-Finesse Illusion lives up to both of these expectations, and is one of our easiest waxes to use.
Whether your car or motorcycle has a modern clear coat, or a classic single-stage paint system, Auto-Finesse waxes will give it the protection it needs to survive the realities of everyday life. For the detailing professional or dedicated weekend enthusiast, there simply is no finer way to complete your flawless Auto-Finesse style finish.
Directions:
Before waxing, make sure that the vehicle is clean, and cool to the touch. If bonded contamination is present, use a Clay Bar to prep the surface for best results. If the paintwork is lightly marred, or the vehicle has not been polished in the last 6-12 months, it is also advisable to use one of our signature Pre-Wax Cleansers in order to create the maximum shine. Place an Auto-Finesse Waxmate foam applicator inside the pot of wax, and rotate it half a turn to prime the pad with product. This is typically enough wax to protect a single moderately sized panel, though this may vary depending upon the condition of the paintwork. Apply the wax to the panel with small, overlapping circular strokes, light pressure, and in a consistent pattern to obtain full coverage of the paint. If the applicator feels like it is starting to run dry across the surface, or coverage becomes uneven, return the applicator to the container using another quarter-turn of the pad to re-prime the foam. The goal when waxing is to apply the product as thinly and evenly as possible, since a little bit goes a very long way to protecting and enhancing the shine of your vehicle.
Auto-Finesse Illusion is very forgiving of application style, and can be applied panel-by-panel, or to the entire vehicle at once without issue. Once applied, the residue can be removed immediately, or left to cure for up to one hour before being buffed off with a plush Microfiber Towel. If the wax has been allowed to dry, or secondary hazing of the wax occurs (A phenomenon which can sometimes happen in hot or humid climates, especially if the product was over-applied.), you can use a water-based QD like Auto-Finesse Finale to help ease removal of the residue. When applying multiple layers of wax for extra depth, wetness, and protection, make sure to wait at least 3-hours in between coats to allow the organic solvents to fully flash.
For best results, do not wax the vehicle if the ambient temperature is below 43-degreesFahrenheit (Approximately 6-degrees Celsius), or above 95-degrees Fahrenheit (35-Degrees Celsius). Waxing in direct sunlight, or conditions of high humidity can respectively lead to over, or under-curing of the product before removal.
