    Yes, and no offense but that looks like the similar stringy beading that won’t get off the surface just like in Apex video. I’ve never seen beading refuse to leave vertical panels like that. It forms stripes? How is that good?

    What kind of durability did you see? I plan to buy one of these types of spray for my grill and maybe wheels.

    When I tested the product last January I saw great beading the first 2 monthes and acceptable afterwards but we got slammed with a blizzard on Feb 10th 2018, so more abuse to it. This is a great product in a great size, 32 ounces and then there's the price, winner.

    Re: 303 Touchless sealant

    I would imagine if you just took a hose and used the flow of water to sheet it the panel would end up dry. I’ Been a 303 fan since the mid 80’s when all they had was their protectant. I will probably order this product for wheels. All our cars are coated so I don’t need it for the paint.

    In my experience whenever you have a panel get water misted on it as the droplets connect and become larger the larger drop runs right off leaving the lines like this.

    Can you shoot a video sheeting a vertical panel with a hose?

    Sadly I can't do that, I only have a Worx hydroshot, that was at my buddy's shop last January 2018.

    Now you said your car is coated and you see no reason to use this except your wheels, this makes a great topper for coating, just sayin'303 Touchless sealant

    I love Apex Details, or should say I used to, sealant madness series. Ever since he moved to his new shop and can’t use free flowing water it’s just been really underwhelming watching him try to keep it going.

    Still enjoy his videos, but it’s definitely not the same. His video on meguiars HCW where he used his IK9 to spray it was just really frustrating to watch and not at all an accurate representation of the product.

    The paint gun he’s using now is a huge step up but it’s still not a replacement for a hose or pressure washer.

    Edit: I’d also be interested in seeing a picture or video of how water behaves on your vertical panels. Here where we get rain often (lol) it’s not uncommon for me to come out and see they pattern on my vertical panels. The slow pour of rain just seems to do that with every single LSP I’ve ever used.

    With a hose or something, the water runs right down. But when it’s from rain or mist, it seems to cling like in his picture almost always.

    IMO:
    •Similarly to some other water-activated Sealants...
    -It’s going to be extremely difficult to keep this
    particular Sealant from getting on the tires when
    “doing the wheels” (unless they’re unassembled).

    -As a result of this “overlapping”, what protectant
    will you be using on the tires before (or perhaps
    even afterwards, if need be) the sealing of the
    wheels with 303 Touchless Sealant processes?


    •Just Wondering:
    -will 303 Touchless Sealant have any adverse
    affects on a previously applied tire Protectant?

    -what tire Protectants, if any, will adhere to the
    303 Touchless Sealant that has befell the tires?

    -will this Touchless Sealant actually need to be
    touched (as in removed) from the tire surfaces
    before the successful application of a tire Protectant
    can be effectuated?

    TIA.

    I wish it would allow you to post a video from your phone on here. As far as youtube, I’ve never posted anything on youtube and while you’re probably gonna say it’s easy I honestly have no clue how to do it. I’ve never even thought about it.

    All I have is pictures.
    It’s been raining all day here. I went outside and took a picture earlier just after having posted in this thread. It had just finished raining and was sprinkling when I took this pic.



    These next 2 pics I took just now. It was raining up until 20min. ago and this is what the same door looks like right now.





    These next pics are the water behavior from the hose nozzle. These first 2 were taken a split second apart using burst on iphone.



    You can see the same water in front of the wheel hasn’t hit the ground yet.





    Nearly all this water rolled off.
