This looks amazing. Anyone planning to use this as a LSP?

I had seen this from the last E3 convention and was waiting for it to release on the market. Now it's available. Looks like it will do wonders for Windows and maybe even paint.

What do you guys think?

I have to test the product first on panels Before I go spray it on a customers car. I believe this product leaves a satin finish. Maybe a good product for undercarriage applications.

I read somewhere it leaves a hazy finish. Don't think it will work well where you need clarity. Forgot if it was somewhere online or on the bottle.

This would be GREAT for my phone!!! It scares the crap out of me to try it though. My question would be how durable is it? If I spray it on my $800 phone will it come off over time? I would hate to be all confident and 6 months later learn that the coating has actually worn away some and now my phone is fried. It will be an amazing product though if it does what they say it does and holds up over time!!

I've read that touching it will cause the coating to come off.

A Wrangler Forum member tested this on his car (undercarriage) and this is what he found.

"Fearing that my original test was ruined because the product had not fully cured, I started over.

this time 3 coats base, and three coats top coat. 48 hours cure time was allowed at 70degrees or greater temperature for the whole time.

I gotta say this product has a serious Achilles heel - And they tell you about it in the paperwork, but I think they understate it - Soap will render it ineffective in seconds.

Another thing that is mentioned in the documentation and probably understated is abrasion. Seven light strokes with a clean scotch-brite pad visibly hurt its effectiveness.

This product is cool, but its not durable enough for me to use on my jeep. Glad I checked it out though, and I'm sure the technology will improve. But for now, if it can barely be touched, thats kind of useless."

Another one... I am not normally one to get ratty and say use the search function but these neverwet/everdry posts appear repeatedly. Sorry but, as has been pointed out numerous times before, it isn't appropriate for use as an LSP.

You would be better of with cquartz.

It is NOT clear by any means and I believe 91% acetone!!!

I saw this at Home Depot the other day, seems to good to be true. No way I use it on a car!
