Amazing product, easy to use
Fantastic product, used it on my awning as well as tent and wheel bag and worked perfectly, spray, walk away, let dry and it is water proof. The canvas wont get wet any more when rained on. When dry the product is invisible and has no smell like other products which gives head ache.

Game changer!
Game changer! Easy to use, well documented and great results. We used this as part of a client resto on his 100 Series. After removing the factory coating that had expired, we went about the preparation (cleaning, taping and protecting the areas not needing Armor) Then got ready to apply. The application process was easy and the net results impressed both the crew as well as the end client. Put this product on your list.
Extremely user friendly as an installer giving a wide wipe off window. This wheel coating performs extremely well and love the ability to see it perform with re visiting customers

IGL wood= IGL good
Very impressed with the ease of use of this product. I’ve only just applied last week so I can’t comment on longevity but holy jeeze does it repel water. I was splashing it for 10 minutes straight just because I couldn’t take my eyes off it haha.
I was very worried if it would change the colour of the wood because I had matched it perfectly but it didn’t change one iota. Not even a shade change (except while drying).
Nothing on the market comes close to Aegis, for all round protection and durability. We do quite a few new 4x4s, and the customers are always very impressed with how it looks and performs.
