Default paint protection help

Hey guys. I just got a 07silver mustangand my roommate picked up a 08Black GT. I have already washed my car twice in just over a week. What would be the best, quickest, not to costly way to protect the paint? I know wax isnt the best anymore on the fiberglass paint , whats good to use? WE do not have a garage (pout) so these will be sitting outside all the time. Altho the way the driveway is, they will only get a 1/2 day of sun.

Any Ideas?

Buy yourself a bottle ofOptimum- Opti-Seal and some Optimum Car wax. The Opti-Seal will give you some great protection.

Collinite Insulator Wax will protect that car out in the elements for a long time!

I agree with what Cooter mentioned. Get some Opti-Seal and some Optimum Spray Wax. The Opti Seal is very easy to use and is very durable. You can use the Spray Wax to boost the protection and to also give the paint that extra pop. If you think the Opti Seal is to pricey you can't go wrong with my Hyper Shine sealant.

Let me know if you have anymore product questions, I will be glad to help!
