Default Recommend me a sealant...

I'd like top top off my wax with a sealant for longer protection. Since I've never used a sealant what do you guys recommend. I've noticed a few use Opti-Seal any one have any opinions on it. Let me know what you would recommend. If I can get some extra shine that makes me happy

thanks

1. Do it the other way around, put your carnuba on top of the sealant.
2. JETseal109 from CG is by far on of the best (imo)

I recommend Wolfgang but Zaino, Jetseal, FMJ, 4*UPP and Ex-P are all good choices.

Over at Autogeek, Wolfgang's Deep Gloss Paint Sealant seems to be winning the most recent poll. My guess is that if the poll was being done at Autopia, the Klasse twins would be winning.

I notice some of the big names aren't even in the poll.

I just recently switched to FMJ from Klasse and like it a LOT more.

I've used FMJ and JetSeal; you can't go wrong with either, IMHO. People whose opinion I trust have recommended Wolfgang. There are a number of other very good products on the market. Don't obsess on product: proper preparation is much more important.
