It doesn't last that long...
Ive never noted any basis that any of these products last that long out in the elements. And Im not in that extreme of a climate.
At least by the beading tests, unless a vehicle is stored inside like 99.9% of its life, any of these products seem to last 1-2 months, max.
HydrO2 and related products seem to fare the best IME.
I agree 100% with these comments. Although Meguiar's products leave a great initial finish, I find that they don't last more than a few weeks on cars stored outside.
I guess I'll have to ask my brother if he'll send me some pix of his Meguiar's Ultimate Liquid treated 2015 SUV to show how inaccurate that last statement is - his is only parked outside - virtually 99% of the time.
Since he bought it, he has properly done the 5 steps in detailing (wash, clay, polish, glaze, seal with Meguiar's) twice per year - Spring and Fall - along with an occasional quick spray touch-up detail after washing (about every 3 weeks apart in the winter). Meguiar's states Ultimate Liquid should last up to 6 months, and in his case it has for years now. His SUV still looks like new, despite sitting out in snow 4 months of the year.
