I'm detailing a black 07 avalanche this weekend. I have in my "limited" arsenal:

Meguiars DC1,2,3

PB ex

RMG

NB

NXT



The truck has no noticable swirls, so out of these products what is going to give me the deepest, wettest, sexiest finish? Any suggestions would be great! Winter is coming and I had planned to use the RMG, EX, topped w/ NB for the best protection. <--best? Is there something else I should consider picking up for next time?



thanks!



anyone know anywhere i can order some OpitSeal, and have it here by saturday?
 
I have not used the products you listed but.....check with Bob over at Danase and see if he can get you some OptiSeal by Sat. Good luck on the detail.
 
If durability is bigger than major looks. I really like Collinite 845 or 476. Both last a good while and are cheap.



Where do you live? If you live near the north/east coast im sure Bob at danase can get it to you quickly. If you live South/east coast im sure autogeek can get it to you.



I believe Top of the line carries opti-seal and they are located in Arkansas so if you are midwest they can help ya.
 
I'm in maryland, so I'll check w/ Danase. I like looks, and i'm sure the owner will to, but being that winter, he probably wouldn't have it done again til spring. If I did the rmg, ex, nb, then threw some optiseal on there....that should look really good right?..and with excellent durability.

I would've skipped the RMG step since some sealants don't play well with it. But I believe EX would be fine. Also, the NB will probably be gone fairly quickly in winter; especially in Maryland. But yes opti seal should leave some nice protection with some great looks. Opti seal looks good on a lot of cars.
 
for this winter i,ve opted for chemical guys jetseal 109 topped with 2 coats of collinite 915, this combination should last a while, two of the three vehicles are not getting any more wax til next spring[ to see how the products last]
 
NB is more aof a "look good wax" than a "long lasting wax"

and even though RMG does work with EX it will storten it's not so long life span



if you don't want to buy new stuff now

I would go with the

DC1(cleaner)

EX x2 (sealant)

DC3 x2(wax)
 
anyone ever used danase wet glaze? just curious I was over there to order some optiseal and came across it. Says it works with sealants and wax. Would it be worth it to pick some of that up and maybe try the Danase Wet Glaze, EX x2 or NB x2, then top w/ optiseal? thanks for all replies so far btw.
 
well that's what I have, I bought it for my car (black) and i like the looks of it alot. I was going to use the NB (bc of the look) and top with optiseal. isn't the OS pretty durable?
