There`s a few products out there that use Glassplexin/Temperaflex and various "glass like" silicates (think that`s the term) in them.
I wondered if anyone here is using any (I guess the Chemical Guys WMF leaps to mind) and if so how you find them at beading/repelling dirt?
It`s a bit of curiosity on my part as a fortnight back I went over my car with such a product (Fire Glaze specifically).
Now it may be because it`s poured down for most of the last week, but the thing just doesn`t have any dirt on it, nor does it have any water spots from where it`s lashed it down and then gone very sunny until it lashes it down again etc.
I`ve always tended to use Carnauba waxes rather than sealants and I`m wondering if it`s the fact that it`s a sealant and not a wax that is doing it, if it`s the glass like properties of the product or simply that it`s had a week long car wash on and off.
