Re: Turtle Wax Seal and Shine
Washed the wife's car for the first time since using this 3 weeks ago. Using a foam gun and WG auto bathe could not get the foam to cling and get the "snow look". The foam literally was beading up and rolling off. Good stuff. Underrated for sure.
Just beware of the spots on the glass and be sure to do a walk around with a clean finish towel.

Re: Turtle Wax Seal and Shine
Hope I will get a couple of hours of cloudy wheather so I can do a thorough wash and top up the protection. Much needed it looked like on the TW SNS part when it rained today. On the vertical panels I have the new version of Gyeon Wet Coat. Which is looking awesome and the self cleaning ability from it is top notch. The TW SNS is on the horisontall panels and during the summer months gets more beating than the vertical panels does. But the Wet Coat is far ahead of TW SNS. May be that the SNS was a bit comprimised as it where very humid and had a very grabby removal and basicly when I was done it started to rain. So I don't count it out yet LOL.
Have not washed since applyied so it can be revived some the SNS. But on the roof it's 2 areas where it looks like it has failed. Will be doing an update when I have washed the car. And hope to get a good wheather for a new layer of SNS. The Gyeon Wet Coat is very impresive the new version. I have used 2×1L of the old version of Gyeon Wet Coat. And did not get this results from it that I have experienced so far. While the SNS seems to be on it last leg and could be cause of the dirt and the not so good wheather when applyied. The Gyeon Wet Coat was applyied at the same time. The water beads are tight and uniform and great sheeting and looks cleaner than the SNS. So just a little notch from looking freshly applyied. Hope to see the SNS comes back some on it's behavior after the wash. Will try to take before and after pictures when I wash next time.

Next time try the reverse and see how GWC stands up.

Re: Turtle Wax Seal and Shine
I tried Turtle Wax Seal and shine as a topper for a ceramic coating on the yearly maintance detail for one of my clients... OH MY GOD!!! It streaked so much! I had to use glass cleaner to remove it. I tried re-wiping in with more product but not matter what I did, all I got was streaks all over the panel the second the product touched it. So if you plan to top off ceramic coating with this product, don't! Reload did a great job once TWSS was off the panel.

Just did my Q50 with S&S over CQuartz and went on without a hitch.

Thinking to apply the GWC on the back part of the roof. And see how it goes. Maybe it would be better to apply it side by side. Could do that on hood easier I think. The time I applyied the SNS was not a good condition to be doing this in. So no fault on the SNS but on user error if anything. And will try to apply on a vertical panel as well. As my main thought of use would be for the winter months here in Sweden. Was eager to try it out when I applyied it last LOL. And also eager to try the new version of Gyeon Wet Coat as well. So was just how I did without any thorough and equal testing in mind. During the winter months here in Sweden the side panels and the back of the car take the most hit and also building up contaminants of tar spots and iron particals more during this time. And with seeing the TW SNS and it's great ability to fight off chemicals and also holds up to them. I think that it could be a great LSP to have during this time for me. So it will be going through a tuff environment when the times comes. And then it's not so much of the water beading. Just on how well it works with all a harsh winter weather is effecting it. And will be doing some more layers off the SNS before the winter comes to build up as much it can be.
