My guess is the Gyeon will have a significantly different water behavior compared to 845, but you may not enounter that based on your usage of the car.
Since the car never sees weather and is mostly garaged, have you ever considered a carnauba wax? I bet it would be spectacular on that red paint.
Thanks. The Emperor Red color I agonized over for months prior to orders opening for the last model Falcon, I just wasn't sure I would love it. I was ordering this car basically sight unseen. My other choices were Kinetic Blue or Smoke Grey, both lovely colors but I wanted something a bit different. I think what I affectionately call "Grandpa Red" hides what lies beneath making it a bit of a sleeper on road. A total of 95 FG-X Falcon XR8's were made in this color, 73 of which were automatics like mine. So glad I went with this color as it rewards the effort and is a talking point compared to all the other Black, White and Grey cars on the road.
As a Ford man it pains me to say this, but those VE and VF Commodore's that you guys in the US got were a better car the the Falcon by that stage. GM Holden invested much, much more money into the Commodore over the lifespan of that model than Ford did on the equivalent Falcon's. The Holden drove better, felt more solid and had more modern technology. But with a 5.0 supercharged V8, I still love my Falcon to bits and would defy anyone to not smile like a loon after giving it some stick!
I have used a variety of products on this car over the years, although I'm pretty sure I have not used a Carnauba wax on it. Wolfgang Deep Gloss Paint Sealant works wonders on that color though.

Re: Gyeon Q2 Wax Review
Looks great! I'd hope to get at least 6+ months out of a product that needs 30 mins to cure. Otherwise I don't think it would be worth it just for looks/beading alone. IMO.

The 30 minute cure time has no bearing on longevity, it's just how the product was made to be used.
As you know lots of variables in longevity but I'm sure 3-4 monthes is possible with proper maintenance.
