Fuzion Durability

Eliran said:
but then again it did happened even with Fuzion that does not require any cure time.
Also, I am getting some water spot, etching on paint from bird bomb so it does show that it did not hold that much.

Yea, but what I was thinking was that because there is a layer of DGPS below the Fuzion, the Fuzion is sticking to the DGPS instead of the paint. Now normally with fully cured DGPS, this is fine and works, but because the polymers in the DGPS were "drowned" by the moisture from the frost, the DGPS hasn't fully bonded to the paint. This means that when you wash the car, the DGPS is coming off the paint, and because the Fuzion is stuck to the DGPS instead of the paint, when the DGPS comes off, it takes the Fuzion with it.

E.g. baking paper underneath a cake. When you lift off the baking paper, the cake doesn't stay attached to the tin, it comes off with the baking paper.

In the OP earlier post he states that he did an IPA wipe down to remove the DGPS and applied 2 coats of Fuzion 12 hrs. apart and still had bad durability. Go figure???
 
But why would you do an IPA wipedown after applying an LSP??

He did it to start over, but didn't apply sealant this time and still got poor durability from Fuzion.
 
Here's his quote: After I notice bad durability I did an IPA wipedown cause it seems that something just dont get right and I had to try different approaches and applied another two coat with 12 hours apart.
 
Thank you Rsurfer for your help and of course you Matt! :cheers:
Thats correct Matt, I dont have DGPS on the paint anymore cause I wanted to check how will it be with only Fuzion applied.
 
I may have missed this, but what exactly are you using to wash the car?
 
Eliran, please post back on your success with your new wax. Do I rightly infer that it is one of the Zymol or Swissvax waxes? It will be interesting to hear if you encounter any durability problems with them. Good luck!

BTW, in what country do you reside?

I will definitely post review on my new wax once I will get it. I already order Zymol Vintage and looking to get it next month.
