Re: Paint Protect - 365 Day Durability
Is this basically a Touchless Silica Sealant comparable to say a Hydro2?Christopher Brown | OCDCarCare Los Angeles - Auto Detailing Services & Training Courses

This sounds almost too good to be true. But if it's Meguiar's, I'm sure it's amazing.Comment

Re: Paint Protect - 365 Day Durability
Says wipe on/wipe off, but it sure looks like a Hydro2 or Opti-Seal type product... interesting.Originally posted by Christopher.Brown View PostCharlie

Re: Paint Protect - 365 Day Durability
This is most definitely NOT a take on Hydro2 by any means. It applies like a wax but won't haze over like one, and it contains extremely durable polymers that will bead water through 50+ car washes. We know that because we literally hand washed a car, on more than one occasion, more than 50 times and the water still beaded. When we did this with more traditional waxes/sealants on the same panel, the traditional wax beading would fade and all but disappear far sooner depending on the product.Michael Stoops

Re: Paint Protect - 365 Day Durability
WOW, awesome product and great option!!! Definitely in for more info on this one too. How many cars should you expect to get out of one bottle? Would you use the same amount as if you were applying a wax or sealant? Can't wait to try this one out!Comment

Re: Paint Protect - 365 Day Durability
As you might imagine, this goes on quite thin so you'll get many applications from the bottle, just as you would with any other liquid wax.Originally posted by jarred767 View PostMichael Stoops

Re: Paint Protect - 365 Day Durability
How does the gloss level compare to say Ultimate Wax?Comment
-
Re: Paint Protect - 365 Day Durability
So from the sounds of it, it matches or outlast ultimate wax and it's half the price?

Re: Paint Protect - 365 Day Durability
Ultimate Wax will win out on gloss, no doubt about it. This product's big claim to fame is the durability.Originally posted by Selectchoice View Post
From a durability standpoint, yes, but see comments above otherwise.Originally posted by Matt-erhorn View PostSo from the sounds of it, it matches or outlast ultimate wax and it's half the price?

Re: Paint Protect - 365 Day Durability
Awesome! Will definitely have to try it out. I live here in Michigan, basically from November-April it is too cold for us to wax our cars. In addition, I do not have car but usually like to wax my parent's cars for fun (once I get my own car and If I can I will wax and wash it as often as once a week) and am a college student. So the only time I usually am at home is during Spring Break, Christmas, Thanksgiving, and some parts of the summer. Parking our cars outside and driving both of them around 15k-17k miles each year, the wax I apply usually doesn't last very long, so I will definitely have to buy this in 2015 and put it to the test. Finally Meguiar's has made something for the everyday consumer. I'm pretty sure that 95% of car owners never hand wax their car, and out of the 5% that do, I'm sure that at least half do it only to protect their car paint (so their car is in better condition and they can get a better resale value later down the road) and not for a hobby or shine, or to make their car paint perfect. I'm sure that the only thing those who hand wax their car to protect their car paint and not for a hobby or shine, is durability and nothing else. They do not want to have to wax their car every month.Comment
