Waxamomo, do you know if Wet look mirror is a glaze/sealant?

Gunna give the car another go at weekend, thinking of substituting this with diamondbrite unless you guys can advise me against it?

Would just be wash>clay>wash>DB>Jetseal>collinite?

I always thought it was a glaze.

The label/product details suggest that it's primary purpose is to add shine rather than protect the paintwork.

I tend to go for a coat of CG Wet Mirror and then 2 x coats of Jetseal, with good results.

I go for a coat of WLM, then 2 coats of Jet Seal, then a couple of layers of whatever takes my fancy...

Colli 845 is nice to use in the colder months as it's easy to apply.

This time of year I like to use CG Pure Concours 50/50 or Dodo Light Fantastic.
