I've gotten 6 months out of it on several customers cars.

If your talking about BFWD I put it on my car in April topped it with 845 and even when it's dirty it looks wet. My car sits outside 24/7 with no shade. Most say about 6 months but I plan on doing another coat in a couple of weeks.

I don't think I let my application of BFWD set up long enough before buffing it off. I lost the water beading after 3 weeks.

However, here in south Florida, it has been alternating between blazing hot sun and torrential rain every single day for the past month, so this may have been a contributing factor.

I've had 4 months off of 1 coat, 6 months and counting off of 2 coats.

Granted, it's touched up with UQW every other wash or 2, but still, great looks, great ease of use, great durability. Love this stuff.

So if you're using UQW every other wash, how do you know the BFWD is still there? By itself, UQW already beads and sheets well, and is reasonably slick too.
