    Question Opti Seal / Crystal Seal / Deep Gloss Liquid Seal

    I'd like to get peoples opinions and preferences between:


    New version of Opti-Seal
    BF Crystal Seal
    Wolfgang Deep Gloss Liquid Seal

    Which do you find looks better and lasts the longest.

    So many WOWA sealants out there it gets confusing!

    Re: Opti Seal / Crystal Seal / Deep Gloss Liquid Seal

    I've used BF CS and Wolfgang (free sample) and being the amerature that I am, I see no difference. Durability.....don't know...as I recoat or reapply something often enough it doesn't matter to me.
    Just my two cents worth.

    Re: Opti Seal / Crystal Seal / Deep Gloss Liquid Seal

    I have tested the WG and BF, but I never let my car go until there is no protection.

    The BFCS was still beading on my wifes car after 3 month and WG was too on my car.

    I can say on a properly prepped surface both of these products should last 3 month. Also when I applied I did two coats one hour apart.

    You can add the Zaino version and the Ultima to the list. I have typically seen the longest wheel protection using Ultima and Blackfire.

    They all rock for ease of use and a quick wax of any painted surface.

    Any difference in look between Opti-Seal (Which I'm leaning towards) vs Wolfgang/Blackfire. I like the fact that Optimum was the first and has had much more time to perfect this product. I would really like a sealant reflective/mirror look not a nuba look. I'm a sealant man!

    I think Wolfgang and Blackfire are glossier ... but its hard to guage since not being used side by side.

    I have opti-seal, I did a test panel on a customers car about 3 or 4 months ago. Test car was a Acura MDX light green. Maybe 2008 or 09. I polished the drivers side fender I believe with Menzerna 2500 polish. Can't really remember. I give the car a weekly maintenance washed and today after I washed it I could clearly see a clear glossy and shiny panel. Highly recommend it.

    I do have all 3.

    My OOS is the older version as well. Although OOS is a good product I was never sold on it as I needed more effort to get it to work well and level out right for me. It is a great product but not my favorite of the 3.

    BFCS and WDDGLS are both easier to use and look good as well. Of the 2 I would pick BFCS for the sealant look. I have had good durability out of them as well, but never really tested the true durability.

    The new version of OOS is supposed to be even better and easier to use. If you like OOS I would stick with it.
