Re: Quik Review - Sonax Spray + Seal
Here's something I wrote about what's in the air over your car over 13 years ago.
The pictures, (which have not disappeared over 13 years now), really tell the story.

How often do I need to clay my car's finish?

Re: Quik Review - Sonax Spray + Seal
That's insane to get that level of contaminants.
Wondering if you would get a cleaner paint with a bucket wash and a stronger car soap like Carpro Reset?
You often do a little more aggitations with a wash mitt I think. I don't know the cleaning ability from a waterless wash or rinseless wash. But have seen LSP to be revived with reset a lot of times. And with the amount of air borned contaminants you seem to have. I would be testing the cleaning ability from the wash solutions I used. Cause the LSP whatever it is you have on the car would not be any longevity from.
That sounds crazy Mike! 3 hours and get that dirty just from sitting outside.
Is it from the amount of vehicals driven in LA/California the air gets so contaminted? Or is it much of industries in the area too?

I was thinking the same thing!!!! And I live in California, not far from Eldo. Well, 10 miles or less I'd say.

Being in the South Gate area, I drive on the 710 everyday, so I drive next to them all the time.
I'm guessing there is something going on over by my wife's job, in ELA somewhere, as she always seems to have some film on her glass. Drives me nuts.
So what LSP do you prefer on your cars, to be extremely capable?

It’s a liquid sealant that’s been discontinued for a couple of years now. It’s not something that was ever sold on the AG store, so I prefer to not call it by name. But it’s the only thing that’s ever been able to protect my paint against bonded contaminants.

Re: Quik Review - Sonax Spray + Seal
I tried Spray + Seal at the same time as Hydro Blue and Hydro2. I got ~4 weeks of water sheeting from all of them. That may be a little generous and I should probably test them again. But... holy crap those things are easy to use. I used a pressure washer, which is probably not necessary. Spray on while your car is wet and hose off. Done.
If it really is 4 weeks of sheeting these products are great for summer. Less ideal in the winter when it's freezing out.

I think these Spray and Seal type products would be great for someone like my Dad who is getting up in years. They seem really easy to use,and relatively idiot proof.

Re: Quik Review - Sonax Spray + Seal
Great review and update! I haven't found anything that really helps with road grime accumulation. I think the stuff flying though the air doesn't care what's on your car. At 35-80 MPH it's going to get embedded. (And if you think about a car coming toward you, the relative wind speed could be 2x those numbers.)
