I would be grateful for an answer to a couple of questions please. Just had drive done in PIC and asked for a matt sealant to be applied. This looks rather shiny and not what I expected a matt finish to be - I have been told it will look more matt in a couple of weeks - is this so?
Second question - I drove my car onto drive 5 days after sealant had been applied and can't turn the wheels as they are 'sticking' to the surface and the squeal of rubber is terrible. Any advice and comments would be much appreciated please. Thank you Alan

I feel it's still a bit cold to do any sealing. I don't know what the temp is like with you but there's no way we could do it here for a while yet. You need at least 16 deg celsius ambient air temp for it to go off properly and promptly. You may have jumped the gun a bit.

Sounds like the wrong sealant and over-thinned. Get the cowboy back to it.
