The other thing is that you use so little of the products when applied correctly you get many applications.
So if you’re applying many applications that doesn’t really speak to the longevity of a single initial application, which is the true definition, at least that’s the way I see things.
Something can last forever if it’s applied every 2-3 weeks, but does 1 single application of the spray wax for example really last for 7+ months without anything else besides car shampoo applied to the paint in that span?

Let me clarify for you E2K, "you get many applications from a bottle". I didn't say "layering". I rarely if ever layer or even double up. I usually, with few exceptions only apply a single of a product.
If you re-read my original post it may be more clear to you.

No mention of layering.

Many applications lead me to believe you may have applied it many times already. Just checking.

I haven't counted them out but I'm definitely hesitant to spend the money again for testing purposes

I guess durability is a subjective thing. I heard how great BF AIO is and so much better longevity wise than HD Speed. I did a test on my daughters Altma 3 weeks ago and it's dead already. No beading, nothing and I applied it with my G21 with 4-6 section passes, let it haze etc. Yet my hand applied Spray PA White Alabaster is going strong still and I did that at the same time for comparison purposes.
I got a solid 10 + months out of Viking Coat w/o any fillins with any sprays on my Rogue.
BF AIO, after 2 weeks of polllen and no washes this stuff is pretty much toast, this picture below
was after initial application.
I'll try to get a picture tomorrow of her car and post it.

Your post about polish angel awhile back is what got me interested in it. While yes everyone will get different results, out of the 5 test samples I sent out all in a different corner of the country, none have went past 10 weeks. I'm gonna give it one more go since I still have quite a bit left and see how it does one more time before I pull the plug on at least Thier sealants

Re: Polish Angel is now at Autogeek!
Wow that's a big difference to the claimed up to 18 months longevity!
Was any high alkaline products used during this time?

So, when I do testing I generally only use Meg's d114 and if things looks like they are ending then I will use reset

Re: Polish Angel is now at Autogeek!
Most of the UK guys get 3 times less durability then what PA claims. Detailing World is full of 3-6 months real life experiences, not quite the 18-24 month claims from PA. The products are good but their durability claims are so wild they make Chemical Guys marketing look modest.
