Just Meguiar's DA Kit, nothing special. Not much of a detailer, enjoy driving the car more than looking/maintaining it haha.

I do want to try out some Einzett wax though. I'm a big fan of their products.

The 1z einzett wax is very popular especially at that price point

no worries just because it's expensive doesn't mean it's always the best. me personally i chose to get crystal rock applied in my last detail because i thought it was a fair added value and was like what the hell ill try it out. really like it but nano sealants are the way to go

CSanto · 11-03-2012, 02:07 PM

I'm looking for a long term sealant/wax.

What would you guys recommend?

Long term I would say a nano sealant would be the best option. Look at wolfs hard body or opti coat

rjd598 · 12-15-2012, 02:08 PM

what do you think of Opti Seal? I like the idea of wipe on and no buffing required.

Another great choice. The reason why I mentioned wolfs over opticoat for example is because opticoat has to be polished for it to be removed. Wolfs has easy on and off application, great gloss, and durability. Can't go wrong with either

This was after a new Nanolex coating was applied:

That petes 53 in the first pic might have the tightest beading from the pictures posted here.

RJD, how long does it last you? Thinking about buying some.

Yup Pete's had some incredible beading. I put that on daily driver and I got a solid 4-6 months out of it. This was done with alot of driving, sitting outside, and automatic car washes. Held up great for what it was put through

Wow that's a long time. People on the forums say about 2 months.

I don't think I even get 6 months from collinite 845
