    Re: Sealant product recommendation: Looking for durability, longevity, hydrophobic properties, appearance, and ease of application

    Also durability to me is what resistance spectrum of s product, how much abuse it can take from the PH scale

    Longevity is what most people are after

    For paste type products
    Finishkare FK1000
    Fusso
    Collenite double coat

    For a spray
    Polish Angel Hi Gloss
    Angelwax Corono

    Their coming coat and Cosmic are stupid easy to install and lasts long too(advertised as a coating but applies like any wax/sealant creme)

    M21 is OK, I have the same big jug (64oz). There’s a lot that’s better though. It doesn’t seem very durable. Beading only lasts a few weeks and is mediocre at best. Shine and filling are nice but also disappear in a few weeks (for me). The protection may last much longer (?) but the good qualities seem to die fast.

    Honestly, if I didn’t have a lot of better products and re-applied M21 every 3-4 weeks and/or combined with D156, it would be happy enough.

    Sealant product recommendation: Looking for durability, longevity, hydrophobic properties, appearance, and ease of application

    Turtle Wax Seal and Shine. Don’t laugh just try it. Unbelievable durability. $5.99 Walmart. Get it before price goes up because it likely will. I’ve used Wolfgang and others but this beats them all. I’m in shock. Oh and you can check out Apex Detail’s YouTube review if you want to see how tough this stuff really is. I’ve stocked up and it’s actually now on backorder from Amazon and Walmart.

    I can't speak to the durability yet (although others say 6 months easy) IGL Premier looks great, very hydrophobic, a d it incredibly easy to apply. Only downside is it's expensive. It's been on my car a little more than 2 months and I've seen no decline in hydrophobic characteristics.

    I've read a lot of good things about Wolfgang's Deep Gloss Paint Sealant and am thinking about giving it a try. Does it fit my specified criteria? This will primarily be used on our daily drivers.

    Meguiars Ultimate Fast Finish also has some appeal due to the extreme ease of application (seems to be the leader in that category?).

    Open to any and all recommendations and would love to know your preferred method of application for whatever product you recommend.

    Thanks for your help.
    Polish angel master sealant going by your criteria

    This right here.

    Adds gloss, slickness, very durable, does not stain trim, can be used on windows and trim, simple and fast to apply, and cheap.

    I'd like to see some long term testing of Ice seal n shine vs powerlock, fk1000p, 476s. Likely all similar.
