Durability of AJT?

How is it? Correct me if I am wrong, but AJT is a spray sealant right? How is the beading and protection as well as looks?



How abrasive is Prime Strong?
 
well i just applied Prime/AJT/CJ about 6 days ago and so far its awsome(i know its not been that long).its been raining for about 2 days and besides the sidekirts and the bottom half of the doors it still looks pretty clean as the water just flys off the car when im driving.yes its a spray sealant too.the reflection is spectacular.i dont think ill go back to #21.altho i added the carnauba because it needed a little warmth but that could just be my color.its classic red.

Can the AJT act alone as a LSP? Or is it better to add an LSP above AJT



It's intended as a stand alone LSP. I use it alone or over prime. I've been getting 4-5 months consistently out of one AJT application (over prime).

IMO I would say that AJT is a more spray friendly version of AJ. So I would call it a LSP.



Yep. AJ + T = AJT.



However, I have often used it as a QD over other sealants and especially like it over BF and WG.
 
AJT give me 5 months over Prime with ease. AJ is going 6-8 months over Prime for me and still beading nicely when I reapply.
 
You have started 15 threads in 7 days. Yes, I did count. I don't mean to sound bitter but dude, just find something you like and use it. You will get a million different responses to "What is the best wax?" or "What is the durability of product Y" or "What are the optics of 845 like?". Seriously, do a search, do something, but man just stop starting all these relatively pointless threads. Rant off.



Like just about everyone has said, the durability will be slightly less than regular AJ, which should be around 4 months.
 
I am not finding any difference between AJ and AJT. Between 5 and 6 months on a maintained vehicle.
 
I regards to the abrasiveness of Prime:Strong..I wouldn't rely on it for any paint correction. It's there to enhance the cleaning ability, but may help with some micromarring on soft paint

That's exactly my view on Prime Strong too, on a DA/RO it can only help to remove micromarring.

Someone commented on Prime Strong as being like "AIO on steroids"

Where did you get this information that AJT will have slightly less durability than AJ?
 
No clue here I am getting about 4 to 6 months using AJT or AJ. In fact doing the wifes car today with AJ and prime strong; 4.5 months and still beading like crazy. But with mid 60's in freaking massachusetts in winter, why not! :)

I have read from multiple older threads that AJT is slightly watered down AJ(to improve sprayability), so durability will be slightly less. AJ is at 2.5 months on my dad's garage queen, and while it still beads decently and looks really good, slickness is down.

SDlexus, there you go...



Keep in mind Scottwax gets excellent durability out of most products due to his mild climate and wash(ONR), so your results will vary(I know mine are).

Even though I greatly respect Scottwax's opinions and observations, that's far from science. I'm not even sure Scottwax wanted to represent AJ as more durable than AJT, I think his point was he's gettting excellent durability from both.



Further ... I'm not sure why we're even discussing the durability of a WOWO spray product. It's so easy to reapply. :nixweiss

Werkstatt calls it "120% version of Prime". So we're talking Barry Bonds Steroids and not Hulk Hogan LOL (although both are perfect steroid free of course:nervous2: :nervous2: ) Some say it's about par with Pre-VOC AIO. AIO was never known as a swirl remover.
 
JW quote

"The AJ Trigger is closely related to AJ... it just uses a different polymer blend to achieve a reduced viscosity so that it sprays more uniformly and spreads over the surface easier. It is still a purely protective formula with no cleaning agents and is a fully functional LSP that must be applied to a clean surface. In other words, both perform the same task in the detailing regime, they just approach it slightly differently. I've been wanting to take AJ in an even more sprayable direction but many people are very fond of the current version. This move should allow us to focus AJ as the traditionally applied sealant and to focus AJ-T as the spray sealant. (While AJ can still do both, AJ-T can do the spray sealant role more effectively.)
