Typically, how long does XMT360 last? Not on the shelf, on the vehicle how long does the protection last?

not to change subject, but products like NXT and Megs 135 and Ultimate Exterior Detailer sheet water versus bead, does that mean the protection had lapsed ??

I think what is being said is that it beads up initially, then fades away. If it beads first instead of sheeting, then it should continue to bead and if the beading fades quickly then most likely your protection is fading as well. If the product is intended to sheet (NXT), then it will be harder to tell when the protection is gone(at least in my experience.). Aquawax is an awesome follow-up to 360 and will certainly add to the protection. Also, in my experience, Aquawax will outlast 360 as well, although 360 is in my arsenal for different reasons. I just used it on my wheels with a powerball and the gloss and slickness were awesome. Now I'm going to follow it up with some Optiseal
feel, or touch(slickness)But what other measure(s) do we have to gauge the protection still on the vehicle?
Doesn't matter, as long as it's protected Most people prefer something that beads due to the fact you can see when it's time to re-apply your lsp.And if we allow this thread digression to progress, which is better - beading or sheeting?
I use 360 for it's cleaning ability mostly. It removes any old wax, sealant and cleans up the surface and makes it glossy and slick(too bad it doesn't last a little longer as it's a really nice look). It also has the uncanny ability to make minor scratches vanish(like below the door handles where scratches seem to appear). Works great on plastic pieces too (bug shields, etc.). And yes, I definitely use sealants with DP and Wolfgang being some of my favorites.Excellent post! This is where I was going, and the info about AW is most appreciated as well. Can I ask what you are using the 360 for beside wheels? Do you use sealants, and if so which do you prefer?
Thanks! :cheers:

Klasse is known as the most durable sealants on the market, but looks "sterile". DP, Wolfgang, Duragloss will give you more depth but probably won't last as long(Duragloss maybe). I hear great things about Duragloss 105 and 111, but I have yet to use them. If you look on AG's website for DP sealant and Wolfgang sealant it will tell you all about them and have pictures as well.:cheers:Thanks for that and your previous post about using touch to gauge the protection.
I've been using 360 & Klasse for sealants and Klasse definitely lasts longer, but I liked the look of 360 better.
Do you know of anything that looks like 360 but lasts say twice as long (so ~3 months)?
Do you have any pics of a vehicle with DP and/or Wolfgang sealants?
Thanks again. You have been very helpful! :goodpost:
