🔬 What Affects Gloss Boss Durability?

🏁 What We Mean by “Up to 5 Years”

Most customers will realistically get 2–5 years of performance depending on use case:

Garage-kept, low mileage: 4–5 years is achievable
Daily driver, outdoors: 2–3 years is more common

🧼 Maintenance Tips for Maximum Longevity

Use a ceramic-safe soap like The Super Soaper
Top off with Tough As Shell every 3–6 months to boost performance
Dry with a clean Massive Drying Towel to prevent water spots

⏳ When Should I Reapply?

If you notice water beading drops off or the surface feels less slick, it’s a good time to:

Do a decon wash
Clay the paint if needed
Reapply a fresh layer of Gloss Boss

📌 Bottom Line
