daily driver protection

[gregory1420]

i have a daily driver that i put 500 miles a week on. looking for something to put on it that will last almost 12 months and is simple to put on. the biggest issue i have is the car is not home on the weekends only during the week. i have used sonax PNS along with BSD but didnt get more then 4 to 5 months out of it. i also do not wash this car but every couple months as its not home on the weekend and its dark when i get home during the week this time of year or dont have time to wash it during the summer during the week. what would be a good protection to put on it that will last and be able to handle the abuse of me not washing it every couple weeks?

I would rather detail a car that only gets washed twice a year then one that's washed weekly. Dirt acts as a protective barrier of sorts.

You're asking the impossible.

You have zero time to properly prep the paint for anything long-lasting, but you want a 12 month protection product.

didnt say i had zero time to prep the paint. i can bring the car home on a weekend and do this just dont need to bring it home every weekend as its out of my way to do this every weekend. i can wash polish and clay the car but what do i install next? PNS didnt seem to last but 4 to 5 months and i washed and clayed the car and then polished it.

OK. I misunderstood you then. My apologies, sir.

I would go with something like Gyeon Can Coat

you think can coat works better or last longer then PNS?

[Forty]

I agree with PaulMys. I’ve used both, can coat evo lasts longer. Try to wash once a month if time allows. I would use Carpro reset. Good luck

CanCoat would give you close to a year maybe more. If you want the best possible chance to get over a year go with a full coating after prep.

CQuartz UK3 or Gyeon Mohs or Pure.

Ceramic Coat it and then use a basic detailer like 3D's Bead it Up weekly. When you decon it at 6mos, put on GYEON CanCoat EVO if needed as solid 12-18mo booster to the original ceramic. Done.

Can coat or Meg's "Hybrid paint coating( simple application)......then Griots 3 in 1 when you can fit it in....a couple of times a year after a good maintenance wash
