Description (from the manufacturer web site):
This spray-on sealant is a revolution in paint protection. Wolfgang Deep Gloss Spritz Sealant is a direct descendant of our legendary wipe-on sealant, Wolfgang Deep Gloss Paint Sealant. The two share virtually the same blueprint, with one exception. Deep Gloss Spritz Sealant has engineered liquefied polymers that disperse easily through the spray nozzle and then regroup on the paint surface to form one solid polymer coat over the paint finish. The slick coating shields the paint from UV rays, airborne pollution, and road grime for months rather than weeks. Its incredible slickness allows dirt and water to just roll off.
Price:
16oz is $16.95
Packing Info:
For those of you familiar with the WG product line, this new Spritz has the same type of labeling and same bottle and sprayer that the "old" Spritz QD had. Quality, sturdy bottle and sprayer that works well and doesn`t drip.
Color/Scent of Product:
Clear, white-ish thin liquid. Scent is fresh, clean, non-descrip (except that it smells exactly like the old spritz QD.
Reviewer Usage:
Over the weekend of January 7th & 8th I used this product on (2) of my automobiles, as follows:
The guinea pig automobiles:
Honda - It had been completely re-detailed the weekend before. Clayed, WG Pre-Wax Polish Enhancer, WG Finishing Glaze and WG Deep Gloss Sealant (2x) so the finish was very well prepared for the application of the product.
Jeep Liberty - This auto has a plethoria of products on it and needs to be completely re-detailed very badly. Of note, the car has numerous Natty`s Blue and OCW layers.
Pre-Review Prep:
Honda washed with PB SS&S, wiped down with PB S&W.
Liberty pre-soaked with Eagle One Car Wash in a Bottle, wiped down with PB S&W
Product Application:
Product sprays a fine, wide mist. Typically I would spray 1 squirt of product per panel, however, hood & roof took multiple squirts of course. Spread product with MF, then buffed to a dry, shinny surface. The product spread easily and buffed off easily, much like the old spritz QD and very similar to PB S&G. Purposely I applied too much product a couple times to see how easily it was to spread and buff off, and each time the product took only a few extra buffing passes to remove.
Reviewer`s Impressions:
During application - Easy to apply as mentioned above - Great sprayer, one of my favs.
Following application, Immediately & after 1st couple of days -
* Slickness - Very, very slick surface on both cars, however, noticably slicker on the Honda that was recently clayed, etc. The slickness seemed to increase the next day on both cars.
* Look - Both cars exhibited that well-known WG Deep Gloss look, and exceptionally shinny. (Edited for clarity): The Honda looked much glossier. On the Liberty, it produced a slightly glossier shine than the OCW that I had been previously applying.
After 1st Rain - Yesterday it rained a bunch and I was able to get pics of how well the rain beaded on the Honda (see below), which I think is pretty impressive. Unfortunately I was not able to get pics of the Liberty, but my wife said the beading was similiar to how the OCW beaded shortly after application.

Durability/Longevity -
Don`t know yet, but will post something soon. The Honda gets about 150-175 miles daily, and with the rain and snow of this time of the year I should be able to get a clue fairly quickly.
Overall Impression -
To me, this product is long overdue. Keeping with the tradition of the WG product line, it is easy to use and produces that nice deep glossy shine as the name implies. Unless the durability or longevity of this product stinks, I will be using this product exclusively as LSP on my Honda. On the deep green metallic Libery, it brought out a little more glossiness that OCW did, but not as much as I had hoped which might be due to the car badly needing a good prep and detail.
