Looks like the Corvette forum loves it. Probably best applied at car shows with a dirty microfiber in the hatch. Also, visit the torque forum for more info.

How can something hydrophobic prevent water spots? That statement in itself would prevent me from buying the product.

The sealant I use is hydrophobic as heck and prevents water spots.

It sounds like you’ve gotten used to coatings? It’s unfortunate that they seem to be so susceptible to water spots even from natural rainfall?

Aren't most waxes and sealants hydrophobic? If you don't want water spotting on your horizontal surfaces you need the water not to stand (hydrophilic) and dry which will cause water spotting especially from a sprinkler.

When a wax/sealant is freshly applied the standing water will not penetrate the wax/sealant therefore protecting the paint from spotting. Once the wax/sealant has worn, that's when spotting becomes a problem.

I agree with what your statement.
And yes, once the sealant has worn off that’s when water spotting can become a problem.. However once the sealant has worn off water will no longer be beading.

Brian from Apex Detailing on Youtube didn't like it, he's my go to for detailing product reviews and tests. As far as all the ones that have popped up recently on YT commercials and FB, I The Last Coat V2 is pretty well regarded. The rest are either way overpriced. Or crap, or a combo of both.

I find it absolutely crazy how sealant commercials are everywhere online now. Before I could go years without seeing anything detail related. Now out of the blue I get a dozen ad's a day.

This has puzzled me recently, that why would anyone want standing water beads on there vehicle? I want the water to sheet off whether it be rain or from a sprinkler or washing. I park outside and the beads end up being little dirt spots when the beads dry, no spotting that a washing wont take care of with a decent lsp. Just would rather it sheet off and not have to wash it.

Do they sell this at AG?

If not, why are we talking about it??

It’s how I found Hydrosilex. I don’t have facebook but saw Alot of advertisements. Apex’s review sealed the deal. It’s a great product. Got 5 strong months from it before i coated car.

Unfortunately more video’s forums and articles and i’m swamped with sealant/toppers.
