    Triple Black 66 GTO

    Hi Mike newb here trying to wade trough all the opinions and information. I have only waxed her once with fusion wax and then used 3m hand glaze. I am trying to figure out when to apply a sealant I have Backfire sealant . Do I wash wax then seal or seal then wax. Also what about ceramic coatings looking a CQ looks like a good product also HD speed all in one. I wish there were a one day class for guys who just want to do their own cars. Thanks for any help.
    Thanks Tom

    Take a look at Carpro Essense applying it with a Carpro gloss pad via machine. Will clean up and add protection all in one.

    Wowser! That thing is freakin' GORGEOUS! If you are stuck on still using a wax, it's sealant first, let cure anywhere from 8-24 hours, then top it with a wax. A sealant doesn't last long on TOP of a wax...it's always sealant first, then wax.

    Sweet, another A body member
    3D HD Poxy is a wax and sealant in one..has a great look

    Polish Angel Viking coat is a great option..best look I've Come across on a single stage paint job.
    I have Essance bit haven't used it yet
    Viking coat and Essense are both supposed to last to a year
