Best Sealant for Candy White....
« on: 20 August 2013, 08:48 »
What are people's opinions on the best sealant out there for Candy White, i am after the wettest look that can be achieved with a white car.  Also good protection.

Thanks

Martin

First and foremost get your prep done well, this is half the battle won,
For good durability I'd recommend fk1000p but it does lack lustre on the finish, zaino z2 pro topped with z8 will give you pleasing results and good durability,
Dodo juice supernatural hybrid will give you best of both.... Durability of a sealant and the gloss from wax.

Hope this helps.

You won't be disappointed with SN hybrid it's a great product and looks great on any colour finish providing the prep is good before application.
Keep your application layers very thin and do two layers  :wink:

That's impressive, possibly the best reflections I've seen on a CW  :cool:

Another vote for DJ SNH - great protection and shine on any colour.
