    Re: Longest lasting spray wax?

    Also, some spray waxes (and spray sealants) can act very weird as the temperatures get down to 40 degrees and below. Any spray product is easy to apply over 50 degrees...but I have found very few spray products that are easy to apply in winter as toppers.

    I've used XMT all winter, and I really, really like it. I can apply it in almost any condition after a wash...sunny & hot, cold & wet, etc...doesn't matter. Many spray products are temperature sensitive and that is an important factor in my decision, not so much longevity.

    OCW, although a great product...has never behaved very well for me in cold conditions. Some would argue that you shouldn't be using these products in winter anyways (or they live in warmer climates). I still top my car after every wash year round, so any spray wax or sealant I buy has to work for me every time.
    In my day we didn't have the Internet, iPods,iPads, or smart phones....but we had some really bad-azz cars.

    OCW - and yes, it lasts long enough to use as a stand-alone LSP.

    Werkstat AJT, stand alone LSP that you spray on. Two coats will outlast pretty much any other spray product out there. I've heard of 6 months, and I've seen 4 months on my own vehicles.

    Re: Longest lasting spray wax?

    I use Optimum Car Wax, Pinnacle Liquid Souveran Spray and XMT Spray Wax.

    I love all 3 and all 3 last decently long for spray waxes.

    It lasts about four weeks (it was still there at four weeks, but degraded enough that I'd re-apply another coat) - I know that doesn't sound like a lot, but the tropical climate here in the Philippines wreaks havok on LSPs. As a comparison to some other commonly used products, BFWD was also visibly degraded after four weeks, and Collinite 845 was starting to give after six.

    Re: Longest lasting spray wax?

    Another vote for OCW.
    If you want added durability, there are essentially 2 things you can do; multiple layering, since it is SUPER easy and quick to apply (I always do 2 layers a month during the winter), or polycharge it. My polycharger order is still on its way here, but given reviews from people on the forum, it does work nicely with OCW.
