Summer is the only time.  The stuff creeps much better into the tiny recesses when hot out.  Moreover, the Krown shops are less busy now and the applicators will be more relaxed.  Come September the demand shy rockets and the staff are run under pressure to get the job done.

If pavment, yes, stay off it until the drips subside.  3 days perhaps.  Doesn't affect concrete.

I'll be doing Miss Peanut as well.

Is it better to do it in the summer, or colder weather?  Do you have to stay off your driveway for a few days?

Had the RX and pickup done yesterday , yes I let him drill holes
I parked on the street overnight
He said if you are parking over pavement, it will all wash away in a couple of weeks, or he would give me some degreaser to wash it away
He said to be careful parking over interlocking
He also gave me a free spray can 👍

How long after application is the offer good for?   I don't see how you could wax a "Krowned" vehicle until after a few months in the summer.  Should be done before application.

That stuff is crap.  No such thing as a permanent treatment. If anything, it will accelerate the rust as it will act as a moisture trap.

Honestly, I don't know. All I can say, I hope you are wrong. Time will tell I guess.

Too blurry.   Regardless, that is just a local offer? Yes?

If I had that offer, I'd come back in the spring after the winter.  :)

I usually go every Oct/Nov, late I guess, but it's been working as my vehicles are all rust free, despite some seeing many years of heavy Ontario winter use. I used to go again in the spring for a second application, but now I care less, so once a year it is.

I can't understand why anyone who owns their vehicle and intends to keep it for at least 5+ years wouldn't get it sprayed. It only takes one good look at an untreated car's underside after a couple of years to see why. The 2012 Wrangler with 100,000kms I have for work is rusty in places I was surprised to find rust in that early...inner fenders, body mounts, etc. Any in some places beyond just surface rust and getting pretty flaky.

My 96 Firebird on the other had, has seen 20 years of Ontario winters, sprayed every year, and the underside is mint...not a trace of rust, except for some surface rust on some el cheapo (unpainted) rear springs I put in years ago.
