Spray on rinse off selants
Spray on rinse off sealants sound like pure magic when you first hear about them. They sadly come with some downsides too, so let’s see both the good and bad and how to use them correctly.
Positives
- very low effort for mediocre to good beading
- easy beading to dry easy
- often compatible as maintenance for other sealants in system
- can reach places no other sealant can reach
- very convenient on wheels as they can reach the barrel
Negatives
- need to be rinsed off very thoroughly
- can cause spotting if they aren’t rinsed immediately
- in high heat environments need to be applied and rinsed panel by panel
- generally not a smart idea in high heat environments
- don’t work with rinseless washing
How to use them right:
- wash and rinse car, make sure car is very wet.
- spray sealant on the car
- in high heat environments working panel by panel in applying and rinsing off can be necessary
- rinse immediately
- dry the car to take off any remaining residue
The same process also works on wheels, if possible work wheel by wheel and rinse after each especially in high heat environments
NEVER let them dwell or dry on
