    When Can Synergy Get Wet?

    I got Synergy wax during the Cyber Monday sale. I recently used it on my hood and two side panels, it looks awesome! I am looking to apply to more of the car Friday. I believe they want rain Friday night, and will be driving to Hershey, so the car will be getting wet. I was unable to find how long Synergy needs to set prior to getting wet. Since it claims to have coating material in the wax, I wasn't sure if it's safe to be exposed to water while curing. Thanks in advance.

    Awesome! Would two coats of Synergy be good for winter protection?

    When Can Synergy Get Wet?

    Thanks for the input, I have two coats on as well. The beading is amazing IMO, the water has been rolling off my hood while driving. The hood almost looks dry until I stop. This may be my new wax choice.

    Some people might said that Synergy didn't worth the price, but for me it's well worth it even at the full price. It might not as deep and wet equal to Souveran, which is my most favorite wax, but it is super glossy wax and super durable. For me I will layer Synergy as supreme base, and when I want more wet I will top it with Souveran which will last for about 2 weeks for daily driver, once it gone Synergy Glossy and protect will return.

    For the most durable trick, I will recommend you to use Menzerna Top Inspection or Wolfgang Perfekt paint prep after wash to clearout everything (including shampoo glossy agent) out before applying Synergy. I make this experiment and can confirm that bonding are many times stronger than don't clearing the surface, there is no need for those creamy and hard to remove cleaner.

    I would give it 1 hour minimum before letting it get wet.
