They are coated - but I think I had a crappy batch of Armor IX (don’t ask me how I ended up buying that crap - it’s never worked compared to other stuff I’ve used). So, the coating failed as water didn’t behave in the usual manner on a coated surface.

The next time around, I’ll do a deep clean and re-coat with something else. Time waster for sure.
