disclaimer: i`m not affiliated with TC-on my NBM TA i`ve use a couple different products- NXT(slightly muted the mettallic and the highlights seemed too bright but mirror like reflections) Collinite 845 (glossy with a warm glow and slightly softer reflections) and Tropicare TC3(glides on and off-nice crisp reflections and has a warm glossy glow very similar to the Collinite 845-durability has been very good 4 months outside 24/7 and still beading) I think both the TC and Collinite can go in the 5 month range for durability possibly longer-if your a carnauba guy go for the 845 if your a synthetic guy try the Tropicare

Have you done anything to the surface after washing? Or has the car not been touched in 5 months. Also there is no indication where you live so there`s no point of reference.

TC-3 is some very nice one-step polish/sealant.

1 application of TC3 on the hood, roof and spoiler and Collinite 845 on the sides-outside 24/7 car in western PA-lots of rain and moderate snow and several washings at a coin car wash-from what i have been told both the Collinite 845 and TC3 can be layered-i used a 50/50 A/W mix to clean the surface prior to applying the TC3

no QD- i did use NXT spray wax(a couple days after the TC3) over the TC3 in 1 spot but that area beads the same as the others-i`m assuming the NXT booster is long gone
