    Meguiars white wax vs Griot's one-step sealant

    Which is more aggressive/abrasive? Which protects longer and around how long?

    I recently was given both and want to know how they compare so I know where and when to use them? I want to use them up first before I buy more of something else...most likely Speed.

    thanks in advance!

    Re: Meguiars white wax vs Griot's one-step sealant

    I've not used the Meguiars, but have used the Griots product several times and still have the bottle in my garage. I like it.

    I found the Griots to have a decent amount of abrasives in it. On really soft Toyota paint, I'd say it polishes as well as a finishing polish like Meguiars UP. I've also used it on a brand new Genesis G90 where it corrected the dealer swirls and cleaned up the white pearl paint VERY nicely. However, I've only touched that car once, so I have no measure of how hard/soft the paint might be. In a more non-traditional use, I've found it works really well in bringing back the shine to the red single stage paint on my brake calipers when they start to fade. It's really pretty versatile.

    I have never used white wax, but have read that it has just as much if not more cut than D151, which is one of the more abrasive AIO cleaner waxes according to the autopia polish chart.

    Not really sure on the longevity of either the Griot's or the white wax but I imagine them to be similar.

    Thanks. My cars are pretty well taken care of...not a lot of correction needed. Just trying to figure out the difference between the two.
    I'm not expecting either to protect very long but figured the Griot's would edge out the Meg's.

    White Wax will out cut it. It contains the same SMAT abrasives found in M101. As mentioned it will out cut D151.

    Griot's One step sealant reminds me of Meguiar's Mirror Bright Polishing Wax.
