How durable is too durable?

OK David I have a question:



If this makes it to market, will it be geared towards everyday drivers (an OTC type product) or towards us detailing junkies that like our boutique/higher end type stuff. This would definitely fit the bill for the once a year details I get. Let us know how this progresses. :getdown :spot



Also get off the Guiness and get some Molson's. :werd:
 
Wonder how well it hides defects? I'm guessing it would. Have you a beater to try it on? Sounds like another of these super-glaze, "never wax again" Xyear protection formulas?



On a similar subject, if such a miracle product exisited, would the paint not deteriorate underneath it?

Green bottle beer gives me a headache!



I'm not sure how it will be marketed yet. I asked the chemist if he'd be willing to make 100 or so samples to give out for wider testing and feedback. I'm waiting for an answer.

Not sure yet. Doing any such test on the Cayenne is worthless because I keep it perfectly polished. I will swirl up the test horse on Wednesday and we'll find out. Guards Red is a good test color because it shows swirls well, and you can tell it the sealant gives a darkening effect.
 
Interesting.... so washes and IPA wipes don't do anything.



What about chemical and abrasives? I assume AIO/Prime would remove it? Or a polish? Kind scary if it's so strong AIO wouldn't remove it. :eek:

I'm guessing you're right. I'll do more testing later and let you know.
 
Looks like another acrylic formulation is about to hit the marketplace. Without activation amino-functional based formulations are easily eliminated.



DavidB, in terms of appearance which of the present acrylic based products does this #49 look like



Menzerna FMJ? Klasse SG? Werkstatt Jett?

Can't tell you yet. Like I said, everything looks good on my Cayenne because of how well I have it polished. I need to test on other panels/colors.
 
Incredible, David.



I'm wondering perhaps if a solvent such as Prepsol, 3m General Adhesive Cleaner, or Valugard's New Car Prep can remove it.
 
Just because of my current situation, I have to wonder how it would last against bird bombs and tree sap. I have no garage and the driveway in back where I park my beater is misted with tree sap and occasionally populated by a prolific flock. I'd love to protect it well, without having to worry about constantly keeping after it so I can concentrate my Autopian efforts on my newer car that I park out out front. I'd love a chance to test this stuff and could easily leave it on a car that I'm not going to feel compulsive about reapplying stuff on.
