After finding out that the Extra Gloss Protection from Autoglym doesn't work with their Ultra Deep Shine, I'm now looking for a sealer that will protect my finish.

After some research I'm finding that I would like to use and acrylic sealer as I would tend to like the idea of my paint having a more durable finish rather than a cosmetic finish that wax would give. Being a novice I dont think my car would need to look as show shine as wax would tend to give thats why acrylic sealer is the way I would like to go,as I think this would be enough finish that I'm after. My car gets used every day rain hail or snow to proecting it from the elements is my first choice.

I was looking at Jeffs Werkstatt Acrylic Jet, Poorboys EX-P Sealant,or Poorboys EX sealant with carnuba, would these be suitable for use after UDS? Any advice ould be great. Or if there are any other brands you would recomend.

I've got Chemical Guys Blitz Spray Sealant.

Haven't had a chance to use it yet though, will report back after the weekend!

Think most of the Chemical Guys stuff is quite well regarded, but I'm about as far away from an expert as you can get (at the moment anyway).

Blitz is very good, and will bond to most things.

CG Jetseal 109 is a fairly new one, gives a very good finish, easy to use and said to be very long lasting. 2 coats required, stick to the instructions on the bottle (very user friendly, even in direct hot sun).

Yeh its says Contaminants will slide of the paint effortlessly and water will bead for months after applying this outstanding sealant.Thats might be the one. Its a blend of carnauba and polymers so you might get the best of both worlds.
I wait to here from you. As you know I've just done mine and it was raining yestarday water was beading up nicely and when I drove off it gathered into one mass water bubble and then slide of the bonnet. So its seams to be ok but I will take the advice and not use the UDS with EGP.

Klasse SG gives good results and good durability. The payoff is that it's a total bee-atch to remove if you put anything more than the thinnest of thin coats onto the car.

Currently using Wolfgang Deep Gloss Sealant - goes on a dream, comes off so easily that it makes you laugh like a goon in the process and looks amazing.

My vote goes to Chemical Guys JetSeal 109.

IT is awesome, leaves a slick finish, and after it has rained the car doesn't get any water marks on at all.

Im very impressed with it so far.
