Whats the best paint sealant?

[carymccarr]

I run my through the Brillo Pad car wash 3-4 times a week. I plan on donating it to make a wish or cars for kids in 8 years so what does it matter?

Same reason most people paint their house every 5 years or so lol.

But every childhood needs the scary house on their street!!

I coated our 2018 max platinum with Kamikaze ISM coat 2.0. I highly recommend this coating. Mine was purchased from esotericcarcare.com
Those guys are more than willing to help you with any questions.

22ple HPC ceramic coating is great and the easiest I've ever used for someone doing it at home. It actually hazes so you know when to remove it. I have had it on my daily driver for about 2.5 years and still after a quick wash looks like a full detail.

Turtle wax 'Shine and seal' spray. $9.98 Walmart. I have been stopped twice, by strangers, who commented how nice my car looked. It's very easy to use.

I’m liking Mother’s CMX. I have know the guys at Mother's for years and years and have always found their products to be high quality, easy to apply and gives superior performance.

the CMX application works best by washing your SUV really well, then wiping down the whole thing with a 40% rubbing alcohol solution (buy 90% at the drug store and cut it with 50% water)

apply 3 coats of CMX WAITING 24 hours between applications and your Expedition will be ready to go for a very long winter.

That’s not a sealant it’s really a quick detailer / drying aid. It will layer over a ceramic sealer though I’d guess.

It actually says hybrid, synthetic sealant infused with carnauba, super hydrophobic.

I understand what the bottle says. But it’s not what’s really being asked here. What you are using isn’t a long term ceramic sealer...meaning it doesn’t take the place of a sealer or wax job. It’s a drying aid / quick detailer...frankly I wouldn’t even consider it a topper.

The bottle says 'lasts for months'. I use it after every wash, takes about 10-15min to do entire car. It's $10, read the reviews, if you don't believe me.

Well...if the bottle says that!

It’s a sealing topper, not a base sealer. Great for a drying aid and a quick detailer / maintenance wax.

As long as you are happy with it that’s all that matters.

—>For reference, this looks like turtle wax’s ‘base’ system and then ice and shine is the topper / maintenance wax used with it in between base coats.
