Hi guys,
Back in Oct 2016, I applied a fresh coat of Reload on my daily driver. You can see my post here. http://carproforum.com/showthread.php?4377-CarPro-Reload-makes-my-silver-paint-blue-!!!. The car is parked outside in SoCal 24/7 and washed twice a month with Meg Deep Crystal Wash.
Here is my verdict on my Reload. If the shine right after Reload was applied was a 10, now it's just a 4. The ability to repel water has also gone down greatly. The flat panels of the car ( hood, top of the car and the trunk) seem to take the biggest hit compared to the vertical panels ( doors, fenders). Not sure how much of Reload is still left on the paint. I can tell Reload is still there protecting the paint. Water still sheets off quite easily ( though not as aggressive as before during the first month). You can see for yourself. https://youtu.be/kbfAa6EMnGo. I wonder if I did a better job of maintaining and replenishing Reload by using Reset or Hydro, the result would have been any different.
Well, I guess it's time to strip off the old coat and put on a fresh coat of Reload. Thanks guys for reading.
PS: I tried to upload some pictures in a new folder. But website displayed an error. Not sure if I have to resize the picture or not.
