Sonus SFX-4 Paint Sealant with Polycharger - Review

[Joshs2013MSAltimaSL]

Thanks Autogeek for the Sonus give-away! I received the sealant on Tuesday and had a chance to use it this weekend. Unfortunately I did not take any pictures of the afters.

Application was done by hand using a foam applicator pad and it went down super easy and very smooth. I let it sit for about an hour while I tidied up the interior. The removal was what surprised me the most; it was SUPER easy!! I literally have never used an LSP that had such an easy removal...I could literally just drag my towel over the paint and remove this stuff.

It felt super slick afterward. The feeling was very similar to the Wolfgang Sealant. I cannot comment on the durability right now because it's only been one night since I applied it. The durability test will be a true test because it was applied to my friend's car which stays outside 24/7.

Overall, first use seems like it will be a great sealant to use and I will have no problem using it again in the future. It has a very smooth feeling and a nice wet look. Hopefully the durability is as good as this sealant looks!

No problem Nick! I wish I could have snapped some pictures. I'll see if my buddy can take some tomorrow (he just drove 250 miles back home tonight...through rain...).

Let me know how it works out for you! I just got a bottle of Sonax, but I seal my wheels regularly so I usually only use soap and water for my wheels.

can you comment on its claim to have a deep wet look ?

Are you saying that literally dragging your towel behind your hand (with no weight from your hand) removes the haze?

It provides a very wet look. I would say a bit "wetter" than Wolfgang.

Pretty much. You know how some sealants/waxes you kinda have to go over the spot a couple times? Well, not with this stuff...just one swipe and it's gone.

Here are a few beading pictures that my friend took earlier this afternoon. This is after a 250 mile drive last night and sitting out in the rain all day...(Sorry for the poor quality photos...cell phone pictures aren't the best).

No problem guys! I will be going up to Tallahassee in a couple weeks and can see how his car has held up.
