11 days in, sure looks like you hit that nail on the head.

Yes, it is applied to a dry surface. You then wait for it to `flash` or `rainbow`, then wipe off.
You do not have to throw out your towels. I washed mine and they cleaned up perfectly.
My test bed just had diesel fuel sprayed all over the hood and it remained on there for 2-3 days. It cleaned up after a standard wash. No etching, streaking, etc.
^^So far yes. Very easy to use: on/off. Nice darkening effect to paint, shine, and slickness. Performance wise it has only been on my test mule for about 2-3 months, but holding up very well in regards to hydrophobic properties and repelling contaminants.
No. It was a single application and I have left it alone since then. It has only had `normal` washings since it`s been on.
Thank you for all your responses!

You are most welcome. I will be posting some pictures later...
With these “coating lite” products appearing the market for sealants will be going into the tank. Why would anyone buy a sealant that lasts 6 months when you can use a spray and wipe product that lasts 12+ months?
We need to come up with a name for a coating that lasts 12 months or less. Moonlight and Cancoat fall into this category. I have a hard time calling Overcoat and Premier a “topper” although they can be used as such. The days of products like FinishKare 1000p and Collinite may be numbered.

^^^I will agree with you! We need a name for these products that occupy this market segment. They are not coatings, they are not sealants per se... Coating lite or lite coating may work. This would be a term that just `us` would use, for the companies would not abide by them due to the marketing that is used.
I have always liked traditional sealants, the look, feel, durability was always better than wax, then technology steps in and gives us new/better stuff! An exciting time for us detailing nuts for sure!
Some pics of when I was beta testing this product a few months back. The vehicle was not corrected first. It was washed and clayed, that`s it.

Back in the day they called miller high life the champagne of bottled beer. Maybe Adams is the champagne of bottled spray coatings. If I could get 12 months out of a spray coating without special preparation (other than claying) and not having to maintain the coating I believe I would finally try a coating. Sizzle, be sure to get back with us in April or May with an update
Fish, I most certainly will.
