Dwayne sent me the following to assist with my Fuzion issues, thank you very much for the assistance and products to try.

Wolfgang Auto Bathe
Wolfgang Paintwork Polish Enhancer
Wolfgang Deep Gloss Spritz Sealant

All of these products were used prior to an application of DGPS then topped with Fuzion.

The Auto Bathe, worked nice cleaned nice, decent aroma. All in all, it cleaned the car nicely, 2BM.

The Paintwork Polish Enhancer, applied with a DA, 6.5 Gray pad, on speed 4.5. It did its job for what is was supposed to do. Not thrilled that it had fillers, but the paint was in near flawless condition from a recent 2 step polish.

I then applied DGPS, one coat. went on fine, buffed off about 15 minutes later. Very happy with this sealant, used it many times. Waited until the following day to apply Fuzion.

Car was in garage overnight. Applied Fuzion:

Now, Fuzion goes on VERY easily and comes off just as easy. I applied to the hood, front bumper, and two front fenders. Buffed off.

Now here is the issue:

It seems less slick, almost like the Fuzion removed the sealant. I know it sounds strange, but moving from a panel with Fuzion to a panel with just DGPS, the panel with the DGPS is more slick. I am leaving the car as it with only the front of the car with DGPS and Fuzion on top. I am going to see what the durability looks like after a week or two. This is the same result I had the last time, the Fuzion seems to lessen the affects of the DGPS or the other sealant I tried 4*. I am at my wits end and am not happy with the results. I have pulled the car into the sun and see no difference. Time will tell, but I think I will go back to SIG II, as that looks and feels great over either sealant. It is upsetting that I paid for this product, and it is not living up to its reputation. I am also saddened that I took advantage of the free refill offer, and I may never have to.

Slickness is not a gauge for protection. You can't compare the slickness of DGPS to Fuzion. Although Fusion has polymers, it will not be as slick as DGPS. Even DGPS will lose it's slickness after a couple of washes. Use the DGSS in between washes and see what happens.

Why does it matter if it's tight beads or bigger ones,or blobs as someone said?

I'd say putting dgps then Fuzion isn't really testing fuzion. DGPS really beads well, so even if the Fuzion wore off in one wash you'd still see the DGPS beading underneath it.

To see if your fuzion is working well, I'd apply it right after the paintwork enhancer.

You're not giving Fuzion a chance to dry! I know it's WOWO, but I always apply it too thick so I have to wait about 15 minutes for it to dry otherwise I'm just pushing the wax around on the surface. It makes it easier to buff off if you let it dry, too! My G35 is sitting outside and every time it rains, I get SUPER tight water beads all over the vehicle as I have personally been walking up to the vehicle right after a rain shower. You should be getting the same tight beading, similar to Wolfgang Deep Gloss Paint Sealant.

UPDATE:

After applying 2 coats of DGPS waiting 24 hours inbetween, then 2 coats of Fuzion, waiting a night for second coat, it is holding up much nicer. Now if I can get over this POS pot it come in
