    Re: How often to re-apply WDGPS3.0?

    Of course there are many variables that
    can affect the longevity of WDGPS, but
    I can expect to easily get ~3-6 months
    whenever I perform, just as you did:
    a back-to-back application of this Sealant
    (factor the 12hr. cure-time in between)

    •To maintain the characteristics of WDGPS,
    before its reapplication...I'll use:
    Meguiar's D114 ("leaves nothing behind");
    or, Wolfgang Instant Detail Spritz:
    It was "created to complement
    Wolfgang Deep Gloss Paint Sealant 3.0"
    .

    Refresh the sealant layer with WG QD and their spray sealant. That will keep your "buttery smooth" feeling.

    Re: How often to re-apply WDGPS3.0?

    I have (and have used a few times) all three of the products listed above. I would not count on the Quick Detailer adding much to the life of the sealant. You would be better off using one of the better quick waxes.

    The Spritz Sealant will add longevity to the sealant. But, be aware, It requires the same 12 curing time (w/o moisture), is supposed to be applied to a clean, bond-able surface and should probably be applied in the shade (not sure on manf. rec. here). In other words, about the same effort as putting on another coat of sealant.

    You could just use it as a detailer. But, you could also just wipe on another coat of sealant as a maintenance every month or two without paying for an additional product.

    Many options - you pick.

    Bob is right on the money. 3-6 months is a reasonable estimate. But it's just so hard to put a number on it. Some weeks I might wash a vehicle 3 times and others maybe not for 3 weeks. And in the winter it's always gone on the rockers loooong before anywhere else.

    Just an example... I put DG 105 on a vehicle this spring, maintained all summer with Aquawax, and it's still going strong. I'm confident it'll have another couple months left. Without that Aquawax maintenance, I don't think it woulda gone this long. Again, it's hard to say. But maintaining with spray waxes is just good practice. And it works.

    Regarding claying, on my own vehicles I do a thorough job once a year. Might hit the horizontal panels as necessary a couple more times.
