Yes although I think she just likes twisting knobs and randomly changing the settings.

We buy Kenmore appliances -- our parents taught us that I suppose.

I have used a couple of Meguiar's Paste Waxes with good results, but they don't last much longer than 3-4 weeks on my DD Z it seems. The Adam's Buttery Wax looks so good but it lasts 2 weeks at best. I don't get the chance to wax monthly and average a full detail probably 4-6 times per year.

Really what I want is a durable wax that is still looking good 4-6 weeks later when I finally find the time to wash it. Another 4-6 weeks until it needs replacement would be nice, too.

i wash my dd's usually every week or every other week depending on the weather so 3wks gives me a good window. for 3months+ protection i use Griot's one-step sealant. i use that stuff usually in the Fall, but this year i got tons of rustly looking contaminants on my dd so i used that over the weekend in certain areas.

it's got diminishing abrasives so you polish off contaminants, swirls as you seal the paint.

if you have a RO, it's a great product.

you can always reinforce sealants with the Hydro too for longer protection.

i think Prima makes new sealants too based on the hydro technology...

kenchan · 05-20-2014, 06:44 PM

Prima Hydro MAX Super Spray Polymer

kenchan · 05-20-2014, 06:46 PM

the reason i went with the original Hydro is because i use hydro as QD on my dd's sometimes. hydro max is $38 for 32oz.... original hydro is $60 for 128 oz (gallon)
