What is the best paint sealant? Seems that ones I am interested don`t last any longer than the Swissvax I use.

Zaino lasts a very long time and has great gloss. Duragloss is another very popular one as are the Acrylic products from Werkstat. Don`t forget Klasse.

I was looking at Klasse, but it doesn`t get very good reviews for durability.

In my experience AIO is not great for durability but when topped with KSG it lasts several months. It`s been a fairly long time since I used the Klasse twins solely but I would expect at least 3 months or possibly more.

I am curious about this too. What paint sealant do you guys use the most and which lasts the longest? Here are a few that I am looking at to get:
1) Poorboy`s World EX Sealant w/ Carnauba
2) Klasse High Gloss Sealant Glaze
3) Optimum Opti-Seal
but I`m open to suggestions of any other sealants that you guys think are good...
Also, is it necessary to use sealant after polish...or can I go straight to wax without any sealant?

IF you are looking for a long lasting sealant check out FK1000p.
Finish Kare, Automotive, Marine, Aerospace, Mold Release Agents, Paint Contamination (http://www.fk1usa.com/)
I also like Opti-seal alot, the FK 1000p might last longer but it also has to be applied and buffed off. Opti-seal you just spray and wipe and DONE!

You can go straight to wax after polish or you can use sealant as a stand alone. The point is to have SOME kind of protection on the vehicle.
The layering of waxes over sealants is more of an aesthetic than a necessity.

Which ones have you tested against Swisswax? Klasse is more durable then wax.

Meg`s M21 2.0. I get 5-6 months out of my Swissvax, I was hoping a sealant would last longer.

Thanks for the clarification...I just wanted to make sure I wasn`t skipping an important step!
I actually changed my mind and am now looking at buying the Blackfire Wet Diamond sealant. Does anyone have comments about this sealant? I`m just trying to narrow down my choices..

I recommend Danase Paint Sealant. It cures almost instantly and looks great on every color I have tried it

Where do you keep a car that gets this kind of durability with wax?
