    Opti-Seal durability?

    I use Optimum products and have no complaints with any I have used to date. I have read posts of people getting 3-4 months from Opti-Seal, but not me. Im lucky to get 4 weeks. By durability, I'm speaking of water beading and ease of washing. I notice the beads stop forming at 4 weeks...
