It's that time of year again! Time to give the ST it's first winter protection detail.
I'd forgotten how good a product CG JetSeal 109 is to work with.
The car was prepped in the usual manner, de-tar, clay, machine polish with Gtechniq P1, and lastly finished with JetSeal.
The only panel wearing an additional LSP is the bonnet which I topped off with Vic's concourse red.





It's not often I get to do my own car but I thoroughly enjoyed working with it and feel much better about it being protected during the winter.

Excuse the photo quality, I only had my 4s on me.

Personally I think Speedarmour is better. But than both is Collinite 845.

Never heard of speed armour, but colli is a wax rather than a chemical sealant. Like chalk and cheese.

Colli is a good hard wearing wax, but doesn't give the cold glassy finish I was looking for.

I have jetseal 109. Would you use it THEN apply a wax?

2 coats of 109 and then a nice wax

I love using jetseal! Just got some more CG goodies delivered for my after winter detail. Giving hybrid V7 and blacklight a try whilst topping it with my black edition wax

Colli 845 isn't.

Colli 845 isn't.

Not wanting to split hairs here, but are we talking about the same colli 845? The only 845 I know of is the insulator wax. Branded and marketed as a liquid wax, rather than a chemical sealant.

915 is my Collinite of choice.

Depends how many hairs you want to split. What makes a sealent a sealent and what makes a wax a wax?

Does the fact that something contains canuba make it a wax, or does it have to have it to be a solid like a paste sealent?

Don't get hung up on what something is called. A guenuinely good product shouldn't be avoided.

The fact is, if you test a so called high volume canuba wax, your unlikely to find any canuba in it. So does that make it a sealent?

 

[dixondmn]

No

Jet seal with seriously tight beading. Makes it all worth while.
