I just topped my EXP`ed hood with Natty`s (kept just EXP on the rest of the car). Does anyone else *truly* see an improvement using Natty`s over EXP or is it mostly "all in your mind"?
I`m all for making cars look their best but not sure if Natty`s made my EXP look any better:dunno
My car looks good either way, just trying to justify topping EXP.
I think it`s a matter of personal opinion and largely depends on the color of the vehicle. In my experience, pure sealant`s tend to have high gloss but not as much depth as a quality carnuba. By topping with a good carnuba you can add more depth to your finish. Like I said, it`s mostly personal opinion. Use what looks best to you and your ride.
Mainly I ask because they are suppose to have a similar look, Natty`s just supposidly boosts the clear, reflective look more.
I think I`m visually challenged. Prep makes more a different to me. LSP`s all look the same to me (or very close to where ease of use wins over any look differences)
Natty`s and EX-P are both exceptionally clear products. As a result, they tend to take on the characteristics of the preceding layers. Because of this, there does not appear to be much of a change in appearance when topping EX-P with Natty`s. However, Natty`s does a little better job at hiding micromarring. I currently like to use EX-P x 2 and then top with Natty`s on my daily driver.
The Natty`s still hides marring AFTER using EXP?
If so, that`s reason enough for me to use it as a topper...
I would have thought the EXP would "seal over" the micromarring, not allowing anything else to then fill them in (hide them)
It doesn`t really fill. Natty`s is just not quite as clear as EX-P so it does hide a little more than EX-P. If you have a lot of marring, neither EX-P nor Natty`s will do much to hide it.Quote:

Thanks. I was also wondering also how long can I expect Natty`s to last on average? Also, is it any more durable than S100/P21S?
On my garaged cars, S100 and Natty`s both last a little over 2 months. Natty`s seems to attract less dust.Quote:
