Message stamina.

It's easy to go on like a liquid wax, but seems to only have a few week stamina, before you can tell the wax starts to degrade a bit, and starts to wear on the 2nd or 3rd wash. I can tell this by decline in water beading, and more so by the paint getting light swirls (Before I apply the wax, the paint is prepped to be swirl free by 3M products). My drying and washing products are very contaminant and particle free so they don't induce more problems. And for the basis of these claims, my original Aztec red paint is near perfect.

This gets me since my car is a garage queen and doesn't go out in the sun that often :( I think the S100 should last longer.... In my case, it seems like dust more than sun wears out my wax.

Also, with a solid color like my red car, the wax in certain light gets looks lightly pasty if you pay attention (probably more so than the Mica containing paint colors). I've noticed this effect on some other cars with the S100.

I think I will be ordering some more Zaino since it seems to last longer, and it has great clarity as I recall....

Cheers,

Salah
