Hmmm that perked my interest again, I did read it had to sorta cure.

Cure time for a QD.... little overboard for me. Might as well add another coat of LSP. It is all upto to the consumer, but Clearkote QS still holds a place in my bag

No AW is a spray sealant....no wax just a polymer....I was hoping the megs sheeted the water since its pollen season and rainy season...the AW beads and I have pollen spots after it dries...with the sheeting action I was hoping to have it rinse off....

Especially after seeing that video, thats why I was really hoping water just shot right off. Would be perfect for South FL where storms come out of nowhere like today (went from beautiful, and then 15 minutes later looked out the window and was black and storming lol), and the sun comes out afterwards, that way water wouldn't just sit on hte vehicle as beads getting baked on.

I will try it again...I really want it to work as shown in the video....If I am not mistaken they said that the detailer was applied to the panel twice that morning....so thats not 12 hours..but it does say 12 hours for maximum effects...but seeing posts here and other sites they are getting same results as I am..no sheeting...even from a tester who tested it...

I got better results with the Last touch detailer....at least that sheeted water in heavy rains..did not last long....but worked....
