    Help picking a sealant

    So looking for suggestions on a sealant that will last long I'm high desert heat, be able to be applied and cure in direct sunlight in over 100° weather and still come off effortlessly. What do you guys suggest?? I'm more worried more about overall Paint protection then shine.

    Re: Help picking a sealant

    Cruz...I don’t know about 100 degree temps but when I used Menzerna’s Power Lock Sealant it was easily removable in 88 degrees in the Chicagoland area and even when I used Colinite 845 and if I had a problem a very light spray of Meguiars D156 assisted the removal of the 845, let us know what you get and how the application and removal goes

    Re: Help picking a sealant

    Sonus Ion is the easiest removing sealant I've used, but not the longest lasting. It needs some drying time, but once it does it wipes off with no buffing. I got ~4 months out of it with rain almost every day.

    I have no experience with this product but based on what you are looking for maybe you could give Poorboy's EX-P a shot?

    I would think a sealant that goes on super thin like maybe DG111 would be easy to apply and remove in direct sun.

    Menzerna Powerlok has always been an easy to use sealant. Of course, you could use Opti-Seal as a drying aid or after which would be really easy to apply.
