Welcome to MBWorld! I love Adam's Polishes products. I use their paint sealant HERE. Holds up very well during Colorado's winter weather. Let me know if you have any questions about their product!

Welcome to MBWorld Prinzz. Another option you can look at is a clear bra

Otherwise, just throw on a quality sealant every 6 months and top off with wax every 3. That should keep her well protected and shiny. There are lots of quality products out there, but I personally use Blackfire Wet Diamond Sealant topped with Wolfgang Fuzion. If you don't have the time to follow a real detailing regimen, take a look at Collinite 845. That in my experience (and corroborated by many pro detailers) is one of the most durable product on the market, going for almost a year before wearing thin.

I have a clear bra on. Had the dealer install it on the front bumper, half the hood and sides, mirrors, door handles. comes with a 10yr warranty. I've been looking into cquartz and gtecgniq. i was quoted 750 for exterior. below of pics after a hand wash by yours truly.






tried my best to clean these while they were still attached. i'm glad of the turnout
