There is a sealant underneath?





How often do you wash it? Is it garaged? Is it driven daily? How do the lower panels look?

You and your questions. lol J/K

No sealant under it, just a glaze (Mother`s name is a little deceiving).

I wash it about every 2 weeks. Its daily driven and parked outside during the day and inside the garage at night. Lower panels seemed just as good, sorry I forgot to take pics of it. Still kinda new to reviews.

I`ve had really good results with Natty`s Blue too, seems to be on par with Meguiars #16.

Washing with NXT. Used OCW today, but not before.

Wouldn`t the beading be the result of the OCW since its a wax?

The Blue is pretty good. 3 months on a friend`s car and it was still beading though definitely not as tight as that. I wouldn`t rate it nearly as durable as #16 or #845IW, but those 2 can`t match the looks of Blue.

I believe he used OCW after he washed it and took the pictures.

Alittle over 2 months is "super", but jeesh, why the 20 questions? Did anyone really think it would last less than that?



If that pic was at 5 months, then OMG Natty`s Blue FTW !!!!!!!!
