Chad, do you warn about getting the finish wet in the first 24 hours? A little research on autopia and provided me with some new information about polymers, and that water can actually stock the crosslinking process all together. I don't know--seems like you'd be the person to ask, or the person that could ask somebody for me.

It seems as though crosslinking can occur up to a week. Highly unrealistic to not get a car wet for a week, but in testing, has water on say, 5 star that has been on the paint for a few hours, and then subjected to a down pour, been less durable than 5 star that has had 24 hours to a week left undisturbed by water?
Good thoughts/questions, thanks for the link. We haven't had any problems/complaints with the crosslinking issue you described. Most of the issues have to do with the time between layering polymer products such as Klasse or Zaino. With 5 Star, the crosslinking process takes 24-48 hours to occur. We assume that people would keep their cars from getting wet. If by chance there was a problem, it would be very noticeable in the first few washes and we would be able to get them out some more product if that was the case. But like I said, I've never had a customer with this issue since 5 Star doesn't need layering.
