    SSII life span?

    I was thinking of buying a jar of SSII once my liquid Souveran runs out.I was just wondering, how long should SSII last on a vehicle that sits outside??

    you should get 8-10 weeks of durability...again, depending how often you wash it, what you wash it with, and wheather you use QD after wash or not...

    I wish it had 8-10 weeks durability for me.

    I see about 2-3 weeks tops, before I need to re-apply. I really like the look, however, it washes away pretty quickly. Its super easy to apply, just as easy as souveran, though not nearly as oily.

    Its certainly one of the least durable waxes I've used, right there with souveran.

    The look is what it is about with SSII and Souveran.

    IMO, if its outside 24/7 I would look elsewhere if durability is important.

    about six weeks when using the Pinnacle wash. You can rejuvinate it with Souveran Spray Wax as desired and quite quick to boot.

    Try to wait at least 24 hours for the sealant to cure before you top it with Souv. or SSII.
