You would have been better off using Optimum Gloss-Coat for a 2-year coating after Ultimate Polish.
It didn't bond to the paint!! There was a nice layer of FK1000P already on it. I'm hoping the Net Shield would cross-polymerize with the FK already on the paint.
We'll see....I left the entire roof Sonax free....so can see how 2 coats of FK holds up against 2 coats of FK plus a Net Shield topper.
That would be an interesting comparison. My experience is that the side panels usually last longer than the horizontal surfaces unless you live in area where you drive thru a lot of mud/snow...then the lower portions of the doors/fenders/bumper will see the beading diminish more quickly (due to contaminants sticking to the surface).

I'm sure he has many of them. Just from this site, seventeen members have added him has a friend. Which is probably one of the most anyone on here has.
E-friends don't count. He may be a nice guy and have many real friends, I don't know. I just said that because the OP started a thread about how awesome his car looked after he spent probably a few hours making it shine, and all he can say is that he did it wrong, and that he would have been better off using his favorite product. Just sounded kinda... You know... Rude
When I originally wrote that post, it was not my intent to be rude. Although, looking back at the post now, I can see how it may have been interpreted that way. I just felt that despite the time spent by the OP, there was probably a more efficient way to achieve the same (or better) results.
