Spray waxes/sealants

I’m considering not reading more of these threads. So many great ideas and suggestions on products I never knew existed. I’ve found many good ones reading here.
So what’s the problem, you might ask? I’m running out of space to store all these waxes, cleaners, restorers, enhancers, etc. from nearly a dozen different brands. I also have over$pent in retrospect. But ok, I need to go try my latest product that arrived this evening. Oh, and thanks for sharing!

Be careful when buying gallons and larger sizes. It may take awhile to use them up.

I have had various detailing chemicals just eat through their containers.

I still have over half of my 5 liter jug of Nextzett window cleaner, (1-6 dilution ratio). That I bought 7 years ago. And I've given half of that away.

I'm a sucker for the "free shipping if you buy over X amount".

Fun to try new stuff, though.

I've been using Armour Detail Supply stuff for 2 years now. I'm liking it.

I use Turtle Wax Ice Seal N Shine

Readily available at Walmart
Cheap
Smell amazing, like blueberries
Leaves the car feeling extremely slick
Last a couple months
Easy to apply, spray on a dry car and wipe off with microfiber

This is a decent product. I used it recently on my daily driver Civic. Nice gloss and slickness. I dont know if it will last too many washings but thats OK as its cheap and easy to reapply.

I'm using SHINE ARMOR Fortify on Amazon, it's 10 bucks, easy to spray on apply. 80k reviews too.

bit of a thread resurrection but does anyone have/recommend a ceramic type spray sealant that's good on bodywork and wheels? Ive been using a armor one bottled as redbull f1 racing, blue liquid, and its been really easy to sue and works well on wheels too.

The newer Turtle Wax ceramic line has been getting good reviews & is available in your local stores vs. some of the higher line esoteric brands.

Sonax Polymer Net Shield

Honestly a good product at a good price that does not streak is the "Lucas" Slick mist speed wax.

I use it as a dry and detail product after my car is clean.

I also recently started using some of the PPF specific detail sprays but I don't think they are much better.

I will get hate for this but Chemical guys makes a new sythentic detail spray with ceramic that is excellent for using as a dry and detail spray with absoutely zero streaks.

I personally don't like Chemical guys brand but this new green colored spray is amazing.

Last I have used almost all Adams, Miguires, and all the other brands you can think of.

When they have the deals on Griots I get that green/blue colored bottle its up there with the others I suggested.

Fact is that there are many decent choices and most will do what you want them to. Brand hate is just a me-too thing, IMO.

Proper prep & technique are almost more important than actual brand. Oh and quality towels are a must too.

I use Hydro2 Foam, as you can use it in a spray bottle or foam cannon, with the foam cannon i foam it on a clean car, and rinse it off after 1m of dwell time TOPS...works really well for protection and great hydrophobic properties and its easy as hell to apply specially with the foam cannon!
