    Best protection for a new Ford Mustang Mach E that is NOT a ceramic coating?

    My wife and I are ordering a new Ford Mustang Mach E in the color "Grabber Blue". I want to protect the paint shortly after delivery. I can't apply a ceramic coating because I don't have a garage or sheltered space to do the prep work, apply the coating, and let it cure. I am limited to what I can do in the driveway in the early morning.

    So my question is, what sealant or wax would you apply to a new car like this that would maximize protection and also enhance gloss as much as possible? I want something durable but since I don't mind reapplying every 2-3 months, long term durability is not as much of a concern for me.

    Here are some sealants and waxes I already have:

    Griot's Garage Ceramic 3-in-1 Wax
    Xtreme Solutions Poly Seal
    Xtreme Solutions Magnum Wax
    Collinite 845
    Collinite 915
    Technicians Choice Ceramic Detail Spray

    I was thinking of Mckees37 Crystal Diamond SiO2 Wax.

    I welcome any other suggestions or recommendations.

    Thank you,
    Joe

    Re: Best protection for a new Ford Mustang Mach E that is NOT a ceramic coating?

    A friend of mine just bought a new Honda Accord Hybrid and I recommended Griot’s Ceramic 3-in-1. It’s easy to use and has decent durability. It will give continuous protection if applied every 4 months or so. And you can put it on glass, trim, paint, everything. Heck, one guy on here puts it on his grill and I’m stealing that idea.

    And congrats on the car, I can’t wait to drive one some day soon.

    Polish Angel cosmic. Coating like beading and literally the easiest thing you will ever apply

    You got a Lotta good stuff there, why buy new stuff?, sounds like an addiction to Detailing, I know that feeling. I’d use the Griots 3-1 quarterly and call it a day….

    People just want to flex that they bought a new vehicle. We all know there is nothing magical about any of the products. wax/sealants need to be reapplied often compared to a coating.

    LOL!!!

    I was going to make a separate post but I'll make one here


    I have a 2022 corvette coming in May....I mean I suppose I could use the 27 waxes/sealants I have now but I thought there might be something to make my 2022 corvette shine.
    2021 was a great year for me, I lost 50 pounds got my teeth fixed and made $200K more than I was supposed too..
    If anyone has a suggestion for a product for my new 2022 corvette I'd appreciate it.....

    Polish Angel Cosmic (never used it but in Coatings i trust as well as Esoteric)
    Hyper-Seal is really nice to work with and has a unique look IMO (The Guz just did a review of it)
    Gyeon Wet Coat (super easy/makes drying easy after wash/less touching of paint)
    GG 3 in 1 (durable)

    Congrats on the new car!!

    What makes a 2022 Corvette so much different to shine than a 2020 or 2018 or 2010? Im just so confused why people ask this stuff. Youre here you already have products and made cars shine so what magic do you think it takes for a 2022? Thats why I say what I did. Not trying to be offensive at all just genuinely wonder.
