Low durability
med. durability
high durability
This considering it is a spray wax/sealant , gives outstanding shine and slickness , not to mention you can do it in your sleep its so easy ....lol

I can consistently get 2-2.5 months from AW, which is better than any other spray wax I've used and better than a lot of regular/traditional waxes and sealants. In the great scheme of things, 2 months isn't that long, but considering the price, ease of use, and the ability to add quick protection to the paint, I'd say it's definitely a fantastic product. Considering AW lasts longer for me than NXT, Wolfgang sealant, UPP, BF, S100, and a few other waxes or sealants, I think that *is* pretty spectacular for a spray product.

I would think it is your base of DG105 that is giving you that protection. I love AW but have yet to see if go longer than 5-6 weeks. I have been mixing it with JW CJ, and getting much more protection out of it.

Join Date: Mar 2006 Location: Memphis Posts: 1,238 | Re: AW durability I currently have no 105 on my car after recently polishing it off...just AW. Also on my wifes car (which gets no attention at all), I also used AW as a test mule. Even on her unpolished, rough, unclayed paint, it went more than 2 months and the beading stopped at around 3. On my car, it is lasting the same amount of time and I can tell the protection is there with it's rain resistance and grime repelling capability. Even when it's dying, it still does a decent job...just my experiences...

Join Date: Mar 2006 Location: Memphis Posts: 1,238 | Re: AW durability Yeah good point, and as always YMMV. External factors will always play a role in any product's performance. In harsher climates, I can see that it may last little more than a month...we have pretty mild, dry weather here most of the time, so maybe that's why it lasts a bit longer on average...
