UPGP vs Opti Seal vs Prima Hydro Seal

**Mobile detail** · 07-13-2011, 03:37 AM

What's everyone's opinion? I have been using a professional grade sealant that AG doesn't sell with decent results. However, I am interested in the aspect of wipe on and walk away. I know Prima isn't this way but the application does seem nice. Whats the difference between them? Whats your personal favorite and why? What color paint works best for what? Gloss and slickness? Most times a nuba will be applied after. Thanks everyone

IMO applying a Carnuba wax after UPGP or Opti-Seal will negate the super slick effect they have on a vehicle.

I've tried UPGP and Opti-Seal and like both of them. I have Hydro Seal on the way, but haven't tried it yet.

I hadn't considered that particular point but it's a great one. After I apply my 3 coats of UPGP I stay with it a month or more before adding a wax.

I have used the opti seal in testing but haven't had the pleasure of putting it on my sky yet.
