I would venture to say this is something along the lines of the “topper” sprays out there.
If it is a true coating (the way we here refer to them as) it will gel up way before the end of that large bottle and the sprayer will be useless after a single use (with the mention of sio2 and tio2)
A couple polish angel sprays mention those ingredients as well
I will guess 3-4 weeks durability with leaning on the shorter side
Cool to see them come out with this product though

Seems as if the line between coatings and coating-like products continues to blur. At first, things like Reload, Gtechniq C2V3 and such were (IMO) always looked at as `coating maintenance` products, now they are being pushed as stand-alone sealants as well. Sometimes referred to as `SiO2 enhanced sealants`, but sealants nonetheless, which kinda implies LSP use.
Perhaps HydroSilex began the trend towards spray `ceramic coatings` as I seem to remember the initial release mentioning that. Now the spray on, rinse off products are beginning to refer to themselves as `coatings` (McKee`s 37 Hydro Blue Sio2 Coating) so it gets even more confusing. So what is a `true` coating anymore? Dependent on % of coating elements contained in a product? I dunno but I`d sure be a little upset if I went to a pro for a coating application and ended up with him/her using something like Hydro Blue or Gyeon Wetcoat...unless the price for the installation of that coating was < $50 and it was noted as a 6-month coating, which is likely even stretching it.

Not like this is anything new, we`ve never had defined language for detailing products. For how long (and maybe still) did Meg`s call every product (at least consumer products) a "wax", like NXT Wax, which had no wax in it. Zaino and Duragloss call their sealants "polish", etc. If "coating" is a word associated with good things by the consumer, you can be sure that term is going to be thrown around regardless of how we perceive the accuracy.

I looked at the Mother’s Forum (who knew Mother’s had a Forum?) site and they said the price was $19.99 for 24 oz and they expect it to last for 12 months. If it lasts 3 months I would be very happy. PA is the only other manufacturer that I know of that touts Tio2 in its sprays. Looking forward to this one.

Forrest from Mothers stated:
"It’s not a wax. It’s a coating. Personally, I expect it to last at least 12 months on a properly prepped surface."
From my experience with Forrest over 14 years he doesn`t exaggerate. He`s a straight shooter.

Mothers makes pretty good products. I wonder if it can be used on interior trim.
This sounds good. I would like to see how it stacks up. How much it protects from UV?
I believe Zaino claims UV protection.
Any product that has enough "gloss" will provide a degree of UV protection. Simply, if high enough gloss, it will reflect a percentage of the UVA rays away from the surface. Just a matter of degrees of reflection and how long the product maintains it`s high gloss.

Lots of sceptisism floating around here. It truly is a coating, not something you spray on and hose away. We have a test vehicle with a half coated hood that’s subjected to beach conditions 3 hours a day, then a drive through brush wash. Every day. Since May 1.
And the coating is still going strong, after180+ harsh washes and 500 + hours of salt spray.
We haven’t tried it on interior surfaces. I suspect the formula will need to change to be effective on glass or interior surfaces.
I trust our chemists to make a coating that won’t clog the spray head. You have to trust as technology changes, products will be improved to do what wasn’t possible prior.
