Product Objective: Drying aide and detail spray.
Pros:
- As a detail spray it removes light dust without scratching paint.
- left paint feeling very slick, more than most
- Can be used after washing to help prevent water spots.
- Can be applied in direct sunlight and it will not streak.

Cons:
- atomizer is simply awful, I transferred the product into a "normal" spray bottle. (but I do that with all the bottles that come through with the single finger pump)
- another detail spray to add to the list

Let me begin by saying I've transitioned away from using similar products over the last several months. Instead I've found Pinnacle Waterless Wash with carnauba which I used as both a waterless wash and a detail spray and have been extremely happy with its performance.

So with that said, the one true highlight of XMT Final Finish for me was how slick the paint felt when used as a detail spray. You can tell that there is some different about its chemistry and in that context alone I would recommend you give it a try. As a drying aide it worked well but nothing that blew the other products I've tried out of the water except for paint slickness. Here's the problem, I (we Autogeeks) are spoiled by all these great top shelf products and XMT Final Finish is yet another one of those exceptional products to add to the list.

Conclusion
The pictures show the SUV still wet from a two bucket wash. Doing one panel at a time, I sprayed the Final Finish over a panel and used two waffle weave towels to dry. Surface was beautiful and left the paint feeling grand. Another quality detail spray & drying aide. If you're looking for a quality detail spray that leaves the paint slick to the touch, I would give this a try.

Thanks Nick, it was a easy to use and as you know, I'm always partial to a product that leaves the paint slick. Another "goodie" for the wish list.
 
Thanx for sharing , direct sunlight application s what s interesting on my part .
 
Thanks Pat & WCP - it's always fun doing these product reviews, especially on the newer products. Problem is lately, there are so many quality products to choose from that it can get overwhelming. We all have our die-hard favorites, but there's always room on the shelf for that "Wow Version."
