Seen where some people have been asking about Zoop products. I know Gasman and others have used it to good results.
Here is nothing more than reading info for those who may want to try it.

This kit will supply you complete coverage for 75 sq. ft, which covers an entire engine AND four wheels. ZoopSeal will NOT remove any scratches or nicks that are on your product, so you may need to have your product re-polished BEFORE you apply ZoopSeal, since it will seal in any defects your product already has.
Pre-Application Step:
Pour the bottle Part “B” into the bottle Part “A”, (DO NOT USE ANOTHER BOTTLE YOU MAY HAVE laying around, we provide you with all bottles). Shake the bottle to mix it together. This becomes ZoopSeal, the mixture could take a max. 3 hours to complete the blending process. Periodically shake the bottle up. (If mixture looks separated after you continue to shake the bottle, please call ZoopSeal). WARNING: PART “A” AND PART “B” ARE FLAMMABLE! DO NOT SMOKE OR LIGHT A MATCH AROUND THESE CHEMICALS! ZoopSeal is not compatible with strong acids and alkaline products. These will remove the ZoopSeal.
Application Steps:
STEP 1:
ZoopSeal Concentrate Cleaner
Clean product thoroughly with ZoopSeal cleaner, you can use the towels provided or a soft lint free polishing cloth.
Mix ZoopSeal Cleaner: 15 parts tap water to 1 part ZoopSeal cleaner in the 8 oz. spray bottle included in the kit.
Spray ZoopSeal Cleaner onto product and thoroughly clean the product. You may repeat this process as many times as you need in order to have a “squeaky” clean product. Be sure to rinse the product off each time with distilled water.
Make sure the product is “squeaky” clean and free of streaking or water spotting. No water droplets left , water and ZoopSeal do not mix. The product being treated needs to be completely dry.
STEP 2:
ZoopSealer (Product left over needs to be refrigerated. It should last up to 2 weeks, refrigerated.)
Take the pre-mixed ZoopSealer and apply it in a dry environment. Apply a small amount onto a lint free soft polishing cloth. Only swipe ZoopSeal on in one direction one time, until the product is completely covered. DO NOT RUB ZoopSeal into your product, ZoopSeal automatically flows into the pores of the product. A transparent, rainbowed film will appear, this is normal. Do not apply ZoopSeal too heavily. More is NOT better*!
Allow ZoopSeal to become dry to the touch. This could be as little as two hours and up to 24 hours. For Polished parts - proceed to step 3 below; un-polished parts are sealed and do not need step 3.* If ZoopSeal is applied too heavily, a more aggressive finish polish will have to be used to remove the excess. We suggest the use of an aggressive billet aluminum polish to remove this excess. We then advise to use Zoops Final Seal after the removal of the excess.
STEP 3:
Zoops Final Seal** (do not allow zoops final seal to dry on your product!)
Apply lightly with 3” square towel in sections of 6” x 6”.
While Final Seal is still wet start polishing off the product where ZoopSeal has been applied, using back and forth strokes until the Final Seal is no longer visible and a luster appears. If needed, Final Seal can be applied several times using the same back and forth strokes in order to produce the shine on your product.
Allow coated material to cure in a warm dry place for 24 hours.
**Do Not apply Final Seal to NON-POLISHED parts. It is for use on polished parts ONLY
Not ready to use all 4 ounces of ZoopSeal? Mix 3⁄4 of 1 ounce of Part “A” to 1⁄4 of 1 ounce Part “B” EXACTLY.
What is Zoopseal?
Zoopseal is a hybrid ceramic sealer, it is not a polish or wax. It is a protectorate.
What does a ceramic base sealer do?
It will impregnate into the pores of the product being treated, which will stop the process of oxidation immediately. A crisp, and clean appearance is the end result. Your product will continue to look like new without repolishing.
What can I use Zoopseal on?
Aluminum, Raw Aluminum, Brass, Chromed Plating, Stainless Steel, Anodized Aluminum Parts, Stainless Steel in Restaurant Kitchens, Outside Furniture, Awnings, and Paint.
How long does Zoopseal last on my product?
2 to 3 years.
When it is time to re-apply after 2 to 3 years, how and what are the steps?
You will need to re-condition your product if necessary and re-apply (you’ll need to re-order a Zoopseal Kit) using the same method as before. Just follow the Kit instructions and your product will continue to look like new.
Will Zoopseal rejuvenate or refurbish my product?
No, it will not. It will only protect from oxidation and dulling.
Will it harm the painted finishes on my car?
No it will not.
Will Zoopseal provide protection against fresh water?
Yes, but not against underwater abrasions.
What does salt water do to Zoopseal?
We recommend that you do not have your product immerged into salt water for a length of time (over 2 hours). If exposed to salt water use soapy water and wash off the salt within 2 hours. Salt water will cause your product to discolor.
How can I get Zoopseal off my product once it is applied?
By repolishing the product using any commercial polish.
What type of cleaners can be used on Zoopseal?
NO CAUSTIC OR ALKALINE CLEANERS. Only Zoops Cleaner is to be used on the product.
How much Zoopseal do I need on the lint free towel during the application process?
Very little!!! The towel should be barely damp, NOT WET!
Can I use Zoopseal on my radiator and will heat affect it?
Yes, you can use Zoopseal on a radiator. Heat from the radiator will help it to cure and make it stronger. We do not recommend putting Zoopseal on an exhaust, this heats up too much.
Can I use Zoopseal on Magnesium?
No, not yet, it is still being tested.
Can I use Zoopseal on Copper?
No, this has been tested.
Can I use Zoopseal on Fiberglass?
No, not yet, it is still being tested.
Here is nothing more than reading info for those who may want to try it.
