The statement about a sealant is totally is true. I checked with 3 different paint and body shops and said to me that they do not advise using a sealant on your cars paint. It is a true fact that a sealant car trap dirt in your cars paint if you are going to use a sealant you must use a cleaner wax first.. Nufinish is good but if you would like to have something that's easy to work with than I still say Maguiar's cleaner Wax or Lucas Slick Mist. Everyone likes something different and I wax my cars a lot so this is just what I like and what works for me just be careful read up before you use it..
But hey....its your car...use what you want.

Maybe the paint and body shops told you that because they know you use that NuFinish stuff on your car and you'll be in withing 10yrs for a paint job. I've been using a sealant for last few years and have no issues, zero, zilch. I like the look better than wax and a heck of a lot easier than using wax. I've used different sealants, mostly wipe on walk away. Cars done in about 10 Minutes. Another one I use and like is one you use as you dry your car.
But hey....its your car...use what you want.

I think Meguire's puts out some of the best stuff us normal folks can buy, that is w/out breaking the bank.
But Turtle Wax products have been out since before I was a teen (back in the 70's). Like I said, I haven't used their products in years but I'm willing to give them a shot for a product that works as easily as this.
And there will always be folks on every web forum who feel the need to post in every thread, thinking their opinion or knowledge is superior to everyone else's. I've belonged to many a forum and yet to see one where there aren't folks like that, w/thread counts in the 5 digit range. My advice- don't feed the monster; just ignore them. You ain't gonna change 'em anyway.

Don't mean to be. I just hate it when people give out bad advice, especially when it comes to car care as I am very **** about how I take care of mine. I know my way and my products are not for everyone, and try not to force them on people, but I do know what I"m talking about.

My cars and the way that they look speak for them selves on this I use Meguire's on all of my cars and it works not ever have I had a problem with the paint. No bad advice given out its true you should not use any sealants car care is big in my book also I currently own 3 mustangs a 93LX 2009 GT and a 2014 Shelby GT500 so I know what keeps my cars looking good and I willing to tell what I have seen work the best. You can use what you want on yours but if anyone wants a good wax try Meguire's its truly one of the best......

I have tried many waxes and just tried the new Meguiars Tech 2.0 on my 2015 .. I can honestly say this is the best high performance wax I have used...it takes a little work once it dries but it has a glass shine and lasts well...

Applying a "cleaner" wax before a sealant is stupid. Why would you prevent the product from adhering to the paint? The "cleaner" portion in that type of wax is a very fine abrasive. So that is a moot point since you should have your paint decontaminated and polished before sealing.
