Spray Wax Durability
Hey guys help out a new geek please. When I try selling a spray wax job to a customer I want to tell him/her the most that a good spray wax will last them.
So what is the durability on say a D156?
Thats for when they dont want to spend alot more for other wax jobs which we are all familiar with?
Im still learning how to upsell.

Optimum Spray Wax is 3-5 weeks on average.

Re: Spray Wax Durability
D156 usually lasts me about 3-4 weeks. One good thing about it is that you can use it on pretty much all exterior surfaces. Paint, trim, glass, etc...
This is D156 at 3 weeks. Truck sits outside 24/7 and was washed about 1.5 weeks before.

Re: Spray Wax Durability
D156 lasted 2-3 weeks for me, Optimum Car Wax lasted 2 months for me.
Imo, the lengths you have to go to avoid streaking with Optimum Car Wax is not worth the extra durability. I live in Florida with no garage so I can never get optimal results with it.
D156 on the other hand works great in the sun, and is just so user friendly!!
Highly recommend D156!!!!!

Can you use it as a drying aid when car is still wet without streaking?

Haven't tried yet since I've been doing mainly rinseless washes.
I'll try next time I do a 2BM wash (may be a while).

Hey Chris, pmfji here... but... Yes and no.
I've noticed it makes a difference depending on how wet it is. If say you've hit it with a blower and it's half dry, it seems to do fine. I don't think it likes getting cut/diluted as much as it does with the car is soaked. I've noticed also if the car is soaked, AND the sun is shining it's not worth the hassle of doing it twice. I'll just dry it then do 156.
OTOH, DG951 does have better manners with a wetter car. And as you may know, it has excellent manners with a dry car. (Just as M156 does.)
(Both of these are my "go to's" btw.) Both do respond well to polycharging though, which brings durability easily to 6~8 weeks in the harshest conditions. (Which here is hot, humid, and raining every afternoon here lately.) I'd still say though that 951 has a slicker, smoother feel (both with and without 'charging'). But... out of the bottle, on a dry surface, I'd give the durability edge to 156.
So to summarize, 1 smells better and feels better, the other smells worse (but I like it) and lasts longer.
