Hi everyone!
I`ve done my best to self-educate myself on the detailing process but the more I research the more I get confused! So many options out there. I recently got interested in detailing since the purchase of my first black (and new :) ) car ,04 Civc coupe.
About two months ago I purchased a PC polisher and Menzerna IP and FPII and followed this up with a Carnuba Wax. Now I understand that Carnuba waxes dont last very long. So now I am looking towards a sealant product to take the place of the wax step to last me over the cold Canadian winter, so something that will last a good 6 months approx.
Im hearing good things about Zaino, but the problem is, like I mentioned I didnt really think about/know about how little caranuba lasts especially during the winter months so I didnt buy my product supply with that in mind.
I have almost full bottles of Menzerna Intensive Polish and Menzerna Final Polish II, sitting in my basement and I dont want to switch away from them before using them up since that is $50 of product....... I love how they work but I just want a wax or sealant step after those two polishes.......
I hear Klasse All-in-one is good followed by the 2nd sealant product after.........but klasse AIO takes the place of the polishers (I think?) and i dont want to waste what I already have..........my other option is Menzerna Full Molecular Jacket sealant and that one bottle costs as much as the two Klasse products, $50.
Is there a Zaino product that I can use as a stand-alone after I use the Menzerna Polishes? Possibly Z-1, followed by Z-2, is it ok to use the PC with Zaino products?
I addition I was looking at Poorboys EX sealant as it also said it lasted around 6 months and its the cheapest of the bunch.......there are so many options, im so confused!
And finally i think im running out of time, what is the minimum temperature to apply these products?
I appreciate any comments! sorry for the long read!
Thanks
