I bought this recently due to 100% positive reviews and thought I'd give you folks my take on it.

This is not an ordinary "quick shine" spray product but a spray sealant which intrigued me. The car must be clean and dust free before application. You apply by spraying it on the surface and wiping with a microfiber towel until it disappears into the paint. Using a second MF towel buff until it's slick.

Application and removal is a no brainer. It provides a smooth glossy surface but doesn't reach its optimum until the next day. That's when the gloss and slickness really come to play. I used it on all painted surfaces, glass, headlights, trim, essentially everything except tires. It had set up for 24 hours on my gal's Corolla, my product test bed.

Example:

The next day she had a 3 hour (round trip) drive to make and it rained.....natch. When she returned the car looked almost exactly as it did when she left!!!
The dirt didn't stick to the car at all!!! Even the edges of the windshield, the areas the wipers don't reach, were as clean and glossy as the day before.....I'm blown away to say the least. BTW this was applied atop Wet Paint. This is one helluva combination and a definite winner. Once again, don't expect optimum results until the next day 12-24 hours later. All sealants react in this manner and must cure, Wet Paint being the only exception I'm aware of. During the "curing" period the car should remain dry. Great stuff, I'll be using it on a regular basis.

Not bad for a spray on wipe off, eh?
