Sealant comparison

You are washing with 914 right? That leaves nothing behind as well.

I don't see how it's possible for these soaps to leave nothing behind relative to others. Most cleaners have surfactant ingredients, which by definition lower water surface tension. Maybe some of them are easier to remove than others - I'll have to do some side-by-side testing.

Maybe the process needs to be pressure wash, low concentration soap, and pressure wash again?

So that's how I'm gonna do my two new test

Suv is half one ceramic wax and half another

Car will be half mckees hi def maintaned with TMPS (10min paint Sealant) the other will be PNS maintaned with BSD.

I'm going to foam or rinseless with McKees auto wash and then pressure wash rinse.

Now I'm using this soap as in my high heat soaps dry very fast and this so far can be left to dry and still just spray off with no residue

If you’re going to be constantly or even periodically topping both sides, how will you determine if either of them officially fail? I’d imagine they’d have no problem maintaining beading if they’re being topped. By then you’ll be testing the results of the toppers not the base layers?

Yes, one reason is I want to test the systems

Like when I had the car covered in Meg's wax and used 156 as adrying aid I want to do these with these companies products using TMPS and BSD as a drying aid.

Always wanting to see what each company offers and how the systems can benefit my conditions.

What did you find when you tested the Megs & D156?

Meg's is always my staple and imo sets the bar for all companies.

Price is Right, products are user friendly and last a decent amount of time.

How long did it last? Did it ever fail? Stop beading?

I did some soap testing. My assumption about N-914 leaving something on the surface and masking the effects of sealants could not be reproduced. Testing and results posted here.

156 would maybe..maybe last a week.
