    Clean microfiber glides right over it. No grippiness at all

    Yes Sir

    I'll be doing a full report once it warms up enough to hand wash and I'm not traveling for work, so probably beginning of March

    Ive still been abusing it going through the drive through washers almost weekly, or as needed

    I ws totally impressed with the Wolfgangs trim sealant, it says its a 3 month product, I found it to be closer to 7 (definitely in need of reapply now)

    Just a quick update....

    Product is holding up very well, I continue to abuse it weekly at the auto car wash and have zero scratches from it

    For all practical purposes the high gloss spray for water repelancy has been sacrificed and needs to be reapplied. This because of my stupidity more than anything else. I’ve had to clay bar the entire driver side after using a DA to remove the gelcoat oxidation on my boat, which I parked right next to, by the time I’d finished for a day I turned around only to see 1000’s of white specs.... I just said... you dumb shit and laughed it off. Clay bar removed them all easily without any clear coat scratches which showed me the coating was still intact

    I’ll update again once I finish a full detailing after love-bug season
