    Can anyone comment on this? I'd like to use hard body, but not if it lacks in looks compared to body wrap, which is the best looking LSP on the market!

    Hard body looks very similar to Body Wrap. Haven't compared them side by side, but I have noticed that Hard Body seems to have a dirt repellant property too.

    Being the co-creator of both products, I can say that HB will have a better advantage in all categories including shine, slickness and durability. It also has more depth than BW, but I have used these products countless times, so I can see and feel the difference :)

    Jesse why did you have to go and say that now I am going to have to get some Hardbody. I have 4 coats of Bodywrap on my Mach 1 currently applied the 4th coat yesterday at the local carwash up the street they have good lighting so I take advantage of it sometimes when I need to do some cleaning up at night since my garage is not that well lit and taking out the halogens is a pita. Anyways here is pic from last night:)

    Danny tha is one bad-ass Stang!! Well when we developed Body Wrap we didn't think we could do any better, but well... we did it :) . BW and HB can always be used as selling tools when doing a customer's car... everyting has a price so if they want to upgrade, then adjust the price accordingly. Personally I think the difference between the two has to do with pricing... everyone has their budget, so if they're not willing to spend a little extra for the premium sealant, then they can go with BW, which is also still an excellent sealant... gotta upsell ;)

    I know I am a little crazy nowadays and I might be seeing shit, but HB did look even glossier than BW to me.

    Side note: I just put HB on my gf's new mbp... haven't even turned on the machine, straight out of the box... IPA, HB everywhere (and I mean EVERYWHERE)

    When can we expect this to hit eShine's shelves? (Hard Body)

    I gotta say, I usually never say that this LSP looks better than the next, they all seem pretty similar. But Hard Body really is a step above and beyond the normal LSP, if it lasts for 2 years it will likely be all I ever use anymore. Here's how it looked on a FX35 after a minor paint correction, taken with a crappy iPhone 4 camera.

    1. iPhone cameras are NOT crappy! Especially the 4S' 8MP camera is an outstanding camera for everyday photos. Sure it's not an SLR, but it's far from "crappy"!(sorry huge apple fanboy here)
    2. That pic makes me want to spend my whole savings on life supplies of HB.

    WOAH!!!!

    I know :) I got the normal 4, didn't mean to say crappy but the camera just did not do the paint justice. Shoulda grabbed the SLR but I was on a deadline. It looked absolutely amazing in person.

    hahah sorry man, I typed that just as I was leaving from work.

    What I was saying was I applied HB on my gf's new MacBook Pro. How new? The unit wasn't even turned on once, straight out of the box. Used IPA to do a wipe down and than applied HB anywhere that a user will come in contact with.

    Thanks guys glad you like the Mach:)

    Thank you Jesse cant wait to put some Hardbody on it, you have a great product line that really works well. I have Bodywrap, Deironizer, Nano Quick Detailer and Shine & Seal, and I have to say that all are great products and do exactly what they say they do on the products description online. Looking forward to trying more of the Wolfs line.
