Very well done and thoroughly executed comparison. I read the entire thing from start to finish which is rare for me!

No WG Exterior trim sealant? How come?

I used it on my tonneau a few weeks ago and it left way too much gloss! I hated it for about 24hrs! Then it soaked in and left a nice solid black look with a satin finish and I now love it! Lol! Beads water really nicely!

I wish AG would pick some of us winter birds for product testing! I think they are afraid of the sand / salt! Lol!

Yeah, over a month and it still beads like crazy on my truck that sits outside 24/7.

And it still looks great, the important part.

I'm very impressed with the level of effort you put into this comparison.
It looks like Gtechnic and Carmor are pretty strong if not using on a step or running board.
I recently started using WG trim sealant and so far so good. I also bought some Dlux which I have not tried yet.
I'll look at these in the future for sure.

Great test and review, thanks for taking the time to do such a thorough job. Would like to see WG at some point if possible. I have been using Autofinesse Rivive and it's held up well down here in Florida. I got a couple months out of it. The real test will be this summer when it rains everyday. The first three products you tested I have used down here and they are gone in a matter of 3-5 days with our heavy summer rains and hot sun.
