I use Chemical Guys Jet Seal 109 and finish it off with Hybrid V7. Both from Chemical Guys

I've used Meguiars as well and I completely agree, within two weeks it seems the water doesn't even bead anymore. Their other products seem pretty good, but the wax is horrible.

I've use a sealant type called Liquid Glass, and it's fantastic. I've only used it once, though. Also not the cheapest but a bottle can last you over a year easily, though it's becoming increasingly harder to find.

I'll have to try some Adam's, so many people rave about it.

CG Blacklight.

Looks amazing, and was really easy on-off!

Plus sealants are better anyway

From experience, I will say either Adams Americana or Zaino Brothers products. I like them both, they both last, and have been the best in my opinion. I'd probably hold Zaino a little higher, but not enough to sway you either way.

KLeech, I am with you on the Jax Wax. I put that as my number 1 favorite, number 2 favorite for me is Wet Obsession. Both are great. The Jax Wax seems to last a little longer and I use it on glass too. Works as good on glass as RainX or Adam's Glass Sealant and only about $25 a quart.

Next Gen2 is a sealant. I put on next Gen2 and make sure not drive the next morning, so the sealant cures. Then I put on a Carnuba Wax. 'Purple Blaze' is really GREAT for shine, but I also use Mequirs Pro Carnuba Waxes for car shows. Then I just quick wax, once a month to keep the shine, mostly the Hood, Roof and Trunk. But, I think you have too many choices already.

This is the combination I used last spring and she still beads and glows....

I keep her garaged mostly but she's been washed half a dozen times....

I've wondered how Mothers holds up. How does it compare to maguiars?
