No, it is not. I mean in theory, yes. But in practice, no. The Eagle One will last maybe a week or so. Hydro lasts well over a month.

Same category of product, yes. Same quality, no. It's like comparing a MINI to Kia Rio.

Since you're in California, I'd recommend ordering from ShowCarDetailing. Richard is in OC so stuff gets here super fast!

When applying the Hydro to my MCS, do I wipe, blot, or does it matter?

Thanks Mel for the plug. I'm back in the US..been back since Thursday night so have pretty much been sleeping to get over the Jet Lag and flu, and just watching but not posting on NAM. Oh yeah..I finally got an iPhone 3G, lol.

Ok back to the topic at hand--I got all the Prima products in stock and ready to ship. If you don't see it in stock in my store (showcarsupplies.com) then call my toll free number and confirm with me, because usually the site isn't totally up to date on stock info.

One more thing, be sure to call if you or anyone reading this plans to visit. We are moving (downsizing to stay alive in this economy) in the next month..should still be here in Anaheim area.


Thanks!

Richard

Haha sorry for the Off Topic here..but yes, I've had it for a week now and love it---downloaded so many apps and bought several, never thought it would replace by Windows Mobile pocketPC but it has...integration of the apps is just amazing....but BW and Hydro work better for the paint exterior than any 3G, lol.
