How will it hold up?

So one of the tenants in the building I work at complained that he used m***** back-to-black and was very disappointed. After a rain-storm all of it washed off and left his plastic bumper with white spotting all over the place instead of black.

 

So i brought some of Adams VRT and In&Out Spray with me to work today, bumper didn't have heavy dirt build-up but I must admit I didn't clean it off with APC or detail spray which was probably a big mistake. Instead I took the in&out spray (turns out i just ran out too =() sprayed it in the harder to reach spots and on the edges, let it sit for a bit, then took the VRT, microfiber applicator pad, and put a bit on and started spreading around till I got all the white areas covered. I did about 1 layer of it all around the bumper and then sprayed in&out in misc spots.

 

Now my question is, if it rains, how will this hold up seeing as I didn't clean off the previous product or prep the area well enough. I really want to sell this guy on Adams stuff lol

If you put it on thick and if it rains it might run. Normally we buff off any excess SVRT with a MF towel

 

I think it should be ok

Don't think it was too thick, i moved the applicator pad around a lot to try and spread it as far as it can possibly go, then when i saw it wasnt spreading anymore i just put on more.

We shall see, I'm not too worried, I told the guy we didnt wash off the bumper first results might not be phenomenal

If the old stuff was on there... rain might cause it to run off... hope it doesn't.

If it does, im bringing my full arsenal, APC at full strength and ill blast that old crap away lol

Just to update:

The good news:

It did hold, there was 2 minor streaks down the middle but that's about it.

 

The bad news:

Owners car went on fire a couple of days later and was completely burned to a crisp so he didn't get to enjoy a clean bumper too much.

Glad it held up, sorry about the car though.
