[QUOTE="Juiced-03, post: 2490516, member: 9715"] The tightness of the beading and the look of my finish are good indicators. I washed my car last night and the wax beaded the water as good as it did a month ago. The beads are very small and tight. No pools or puddles of water. All perfect beads. When my wax wears out, usually there will be very large beads of water and perhaps no beads at all. The water may just pool up. Sealants generally sheet the water off the finish rather than bead. Also, my zinc yellow really appreciates the benefit of a wax in the looks department. I can easily tell my finish with and without wax just by looking at the gloss. After detailing professionally for over 3 years, I can surely tell if my own finish is losing its "pop". I do agree that most carnaubas will deteriorate quicker than most sealants, but not because of the heat. Heat may have a small impact on the durability, but a 105 degree day of heat won't strip it off overnight. I think constant periods of rain have more of an impact on carnaubas than the heat does. Your experience may be different than mine, so feel free to argue my statement if you disagree. :beer: [/QUOTE]
