nano sealants vs traditional wax/sealant
Hi Guys,
I've been seriously contemplating using cquartz or one of the various other nano sealants on the market however am torn. Are these products superior to traditional wax/sealants? I know the nano sealants last longer but is their finish superior to that of a fresh wax? Does it provide that super high gloss over the 2+ years it will be on your car?

Like all LSPs.... durability is determined by the condition/environment.
For Example: CQuartz If the car is garage and the surface properly maintain ( a regular wash regiment) in an area with mild climate then it is quite possible. There are many hobbyist/enthusiasts who would top the CQuartz with Reload every 3 months to prolong the life of the coating as well as adding some slickness to the surface. As far as the gloss factor.... see for yourself. Take a look at the reflection of the objects on the door. Here is a 1988 Porsche 911 that I did 6 months ago. (Multi-step Paint Corrections and polish, CG BlackLight, Jetseal, and CG 50/50 Wax). Here is the same car 6 months later but with CQuartz UK. (Light polishing, CQuartz UK) Notice how much more defined the objects in the reflections are. I was very impressed by the depth and the clarity of the finish. After-all, this is a silver car.

Thanks for your input. Definitely will be doing a cquartz treatment after reviewing your photos.
