I just got a 2009 acura tl wdp. I already have wolfgang deep gloss paint sealant and pinnacle singnature series II. I just want to know if ther any better options. Thanks risky
 
Fuzion is available for an incredible deal... otherwise it sounds good thus far...
 
WDGS and pinnacle - very nice combo. As for any better options, You can have many, many, many more options. Try what You have and if you liked this is best option for You. BTW. I used WDGS with pinnacle souveran on my wife silver FX and I love it.:D
 
white needs extra gloss, consider Four Star UPP or Wolfgang Sealant for best results. Duragloss TPP is another fine choice.
 
I use and truley enjoy the "hard candy" look that 4*UPP gives.
 
I use what you have and it looks great and keeps the costs down. PSSII Is truly awsome on White and silver. Good first choice.

I like Liquid Souveran on white.

:whs: You could also try dodo juice diamond white. SSII, fuzion, P21S 100%, DGPS and souveran paste are all good.

In these situations most of the replies are bound to recommend whatever they use, as will mine. However, you've already got two excellent products, I'd go with what you've already got rather than chase recommendations.

Now for my plug, I've used both Jetseal 109 and DGPS and loved the shine of both, didn't like the long bonding time between coats with DGPS. I've used all kinds of waxes, both premium and more moderately priced and keep coming back to my old standby, Collinite #845 Insulator Wax. I've yet to find anything longer lasting or that produces a better, deeper gloss or more slippery finish. Plus you can't beat the price. Take a look at 845IW on top of Jetseal on my hood and make up your own mind:

Still, I'd go with what you've got. They're both fine products. As you probably already know, the prep underneath is going to determine your results more than which LSPs you choose.

TLMitchell, it's 845 IW on top of Jetseal more slippery then 4* UPP? I love it how slippery 4* UPP is but after I apply 845 IW on top of 4* UPP I think paint it's not to slippery any more.So I think 854 IW is more for protection then look.BTW. I like it 845 IW for Chicago winter.

Not a fan at all of Jetseal. I'd take the long bonding time of DGPS over the lack of Jetseals durabilitiy any day IMO. Jetseal is way more finicky than DGPS.

Can't say as I've never used UPP. I found the feel of the finish with both the 845IW and JS comparable. However, when I put Collinite 915 on a test spot the MF definitely dragged somewhat compared to before. Seemed to add some depth though. 915 is a lot of work compared to the ease of 845.

Like a few products, there's those that swear by JS and those that have lesser experiences and opinons. :::shrug::: JS is the first sealant I tried and the jury is still out on durability for me. I only received a small sample of DGPS and tried it out on a friend's hood.

As far as "finicky", I found application and removal of both sealants to be straightforward with no issues and comparable results.

As with most products, your mileage may vary.
