Does this dry out over the time? I don't work on cars everyday, maybe once couple years.

It dries a few years after application but retains its anti-seize anti-corrosion properties.

I am a home mechanic and been using this product for over a year now. Never had a problem with it such as drying. It does what is is supposed to do. Highly recommend.

I have had it for over a year and it is still as new since I keep it a double zip lock bag.

I've not used it to dry my car; I do use it to clean the dirt, grass, et cetera from my lawn tractor. It does a great job. I can't imagine it not working well to dry a car. It's quite powerful.

I used it to seal cracks on my driveway and it has stood up to the elements for at least five years. I think that if you prep the area and apply an even coat that it would hold. It stays rubbery when dry. You may want to try it on a small obscure spot first.

Yes, this stuff is awesome! It lasts a long time, so you don't have to keep re-waxing every 3 months. For me, it lasts about a legitimate year on my car, and about six months on my motorcycle. Before you put this on, clean the chrome with some kind of metal cleaner polish, then apply this as a second protective coat. I'm not too sure how long this will last on those parts though, since they are very hot. Hope this helps

Yes that is exactly how I use it. One Cap full to 16oz. of water spray on gently rub on and wipe off wipe a microfiber cloth and marvel at the results. That simple. Enjoy I sure have for the past year or better. A Car Show must for best results

It's a very strong clear once it dries, however I would not recommend using it on a car.....

I agree with the others on this thread. I am pretty amazed at how long the finish holds up. I've detailed cars professionally off and on for about 20 years. This is hands down one of the best wax products I have ever used. Not just spray waxes, any wax.

I stated using it to dry my motorcycles... blow dry work great and no water spots on the chrome. I also use it to dry my cars, including my custom painted 64 Corvette. Works best in a cool shaded area. I start in the front and work toward the back (also try to work from top to bottom).

I use it yearly for my driveway (gravel) and around my house. The effect seems to last at least that long. I skipped one yearly application and still had good results well into the 2nd year, but then it seemed to wear off.

I tried it in the sun and it wasn't as good as when the metal was cooler. In hot sun the water evaporates almost before you spread the wax, and the wax seems to melt instead of shine, and leaves streaks. Find some shade. I use a microfiber towel, spray the water / wax on it so it's barely damp, then a little on the car. Long swipes leaves a smooth application. It dries in seconds, keep wiping and it shines beautifully. This is all I have ever used on my Model S, and on the Paint Protection Film on the hood, and it still really snaps heads after a year. A quick wipe with a damp microfiber, then a quick spray of Quick Wax and it looks like you had it detailed. I tried it in the sun and it wasn't as good as when the metal was cooler.

I suppose....works great for drying cars....that's why I originally bought it.

I have a colleague that used it on his car and it sat too long and removed the paint. If you use it, I would wipe it down and wash it with soap and water soon after it is applied. It may have been a fluke but thought I would share their experience.

I have run my through the car wash weekly for the past year with no problems whatsoever. Great product.

Never. And I've used a California Duster for over 20 years on 2 cars. You might see a bit of a waxy line when a duster is new if you rub harder. It's a great way to prepare to wash your car...follow with a damp Mystic Maid and you're done, all in the garage using little water. I never go to a car wash!!!

I always apply out of direct sunlight, ie in my garage. It goes on and looks a little cloudy at first but lays down nice and flat and is dry to the touch in minutes. Within one hour you can drive your car and use it like normal. Also be very sure to follow the recommended alcohol wipe down. It calls for a 13% alcohol wipe down first. This is important for the best end results. Also, I make sure my cars finish is at it's finest as this is a protectant only. I do this to all my vehicles once per year. What a difference I have seen sense I started doing this now going on my 4th year

Whoops I accidentally answers yes. It hasn't affected mine. I do live in AZ a though. I have washed my car several times and it hasn't been affected
