Re: best wAX OR SEALANT
Most times what you get are opinions of what fellow forum members enjoy using, when "the best..." anything is asked.
This is ok though, because it gives one a view of what has worked for people, across the board.
In the spirit of participation, I can say that I really like Duragloss 111, Meguiar's NXT 2.0, Ultimate Wax, #20 Polymer Sealant, and #21 Synthetic Sealant.

Re: best wAX OR SEALANT
I'm going to insist that a whole bunch of other Waxes and
Sealants are better than the Wax or Sealant that I choose
to use.
That way:
When my choices beats all the others, mano a mano...
I don't have to beat-the-drums to call attention to them.

Re: best wAX OR SEALANT
I can't tell you what the best is, but here is what I prefer and why I prefer it: Klasse high gloss sealant glaze.
why?
-it is easy to apply, (using the damp MF applicator and small 1 ounce atomizing spray bottle) wipe on/wipe off
-I can add a bit of it to a gallon of whatever QD I use as a drying aid and boost protection whenever I wash
-it is extremely durable considering how easy it is to apply and how little is needed
-I bought a 33 ounce jug of it when I bought my jeep in 2009 and I am nowhere near out of it
The "best" of anything will always be in a state of flux as there are a ton of factors as well as new products being released every year.

OP, I had been using Meguiars Ultimate Wax in the past and it seemed nice. I did recently switch and added a sealant to my mustang.
I am now using a sealant called M Seal that is sold by Chemical Guys and protects up to 6 months. I also added another layer of protection of a carnuba wax called butter wet wax.
This butter wet wax I got from Chemical Guys as well and its really great stuff. It protects up to 3 months and goes on like butter.

Re: best wAX OR SEALANT
What does an apple taste like?
How do you know if you and I see the same thing when we see the color red?
"Best" is like that to me.... SUBJECTIVE
There can be no 'best' wax because each of us place differing value in its varied attributes and what I have found is that the weighting we assign to each attribute may change from detail to detail.
When deciding what LSP to put on a vehicle, I think about the following sort of things:
-availability (a reality for us in South Africa [and I am sure many other places too])
-protective ability
-durability
-prep requirements
-ease of application
-setting up time
-ease of removal
-curing time
-cost per application
-looks
-other product compatibility
-car type (daily driver / show car etc)
-car color
-customer
-weather
Change any on of the above and your choice of LSP may change with it.
I am not a waxaholic by any means, so my exploits into LSP's has been somewhat limited, but these are a few of MY favorites that I use depending on the above.
Chemical Guys Pete's 53
Collinite 845
Collinite 915 (arrived 2 days ago so will try it today but have no doubt it will live up to its hype)
Gyeon Wetcoat
Menzerna Powerlock
Optimum Optiseal
Soft 99 Fusso Dark Coat

Re: best wAX OR SEALANT
Currently I am still using the Klasse Twins coz it aint finish yet. Up next, is what I have been waiting for to use the Wolfgang Deep Gloss Sealant 3.0. And ofcourse Collinite #845 always will be there due to ease of use and the amount of product needed is mind boggling small. Planning on trying out the DP mad wax as well.

Re: best wAX OR SEALANT
Recently had the pleasure of using the Wolfgang Deep Gloss Sealant 3.0. What a great product, wipe on, wipe off as Mr. Miyagi says. Truly easy to use and great protection. One other
nice feature, is that I use to get dust off the car every 2 to 3 days. Now the dust just doesn't seem to stick.
