What to use

[hot_h2o]

I have been a huge fan of sonax. And using them to wax my car for the last two years. I`ve decided to try something different but I`m not sure what to use. I would love to use a sealant but I do not have eight hours or more of cure time available since I do most of my details at work. My car sits outside 24 hours a day seven days a week. I have used sonax PNS but that is not my favorite. I used to use only Auto Finesse but I feel that their products are good but that is it, not great,and for the price of shipping it was not worth it. What do you guys suggest? Also I have been using carpro Essance and love it but I wanted a topper to last more than 2-3 months. That is all I have been getting out of sonax nano wax. Thanks for your help

Blackfire Crystal Seal!!!

You can do a car in less than 10mins and it looks awesome! It goes on super thin, and is SUPER easy to use. Put a coat on every 1-2months after a wash and you`ll always have great shine and protection

Hydro2 would be quick and painless!

I was going to suggest Ultima`s Paint Sealant, but I`m not sure if it`s only avail as part of the Ultimate Flawless Finish System. It`s super easy to apply (with machine) and cure time is 15-30 min. Durability is okay, and could be better with the new Ultima Acryllic Spray Wax used like, oh, every 2-3 weeks.

FK1000p is great with durability, IME. Not as easy to apply, but well worth the effort. 2 Layers. I`m happy

Seeing as you are using essence you could always use a silica spray sealant to top that.

CarPro Reload Spray Sealant

GTechniq C2v3 Liquid Crystal 500 ml.

GYEON Q2M Cure - 400 ml

As stated up above you have the option of a water activated sealant

GYEON WetCoat - 500 ml

The ready to use version

CarPro Hydro2 Lite Touchless Silica Sealant 1 Liter (Ready To Use)

CarPro Reload has been sore spot around here, but it was nice to see the CarPro boss come out and publicly say that they had a problem with a version of Reload. The cries of "user error" from CarPro have finally been silenced. If you have a bottle of the bad batch you can request your money back. They have sent replacement stocks to the retailers according to CarPro. Maybe someone will try the "new" Reload and post their results. Or maybe CarPro could find it in their heart to send out a few free bottles?

The Guz I don`t use essence every time. Maybe once a year. I still use auto finesse rejuvenate before I wax.

That, unless you want to use a coating. It`s the only conventional LSP I`d even consider for an outside vehicle.
