With our information, guides, tests and product comparisons on the subject of paint sealing, you can get an overview and find the right sealing to apply to your car yourself to protect the paintwork and let it shine at the same time! But what is there anyway? 1. Nano Sealing / 2. Ceramic Sealing / 3. Polymer Sealing / 4. Wax Sealing – And which sealing type suits your needs? 1. hard wax / 2. liquid wax / 3. ceramic sealing / 4. nano sealing / 5. glass sealing / 6. rim sealing / 7. interior care / 8. exterior wash! Below is a comparison of Top 4 sealing types.
Information on paint sealing
A paint seal serves to give the car paint a temporary, however no permanentto confer protection. The sealing dissolves after a certain period of use, since the durability depends on the sealing technique and the product used varies.
Nano sealing
The nano seal is a synthetic seal with small nanoparticles that, depending on the product and driving performance, last for about 6-12 months is durable and therefore lasts a little longer than a wax seal. However, this seal offers no protection from fine scratches, there save thick sealing layer is applied. In the Nano sealing only fine gaps in the paint are filled, so that dirt is better repelled.
With the lotus effect of Nano sealing your car shines again quickly after the rain or after cleaning with a high-pressure cleaner. However, there are differences in the quality and durability of the nano coating, especially with regard to rain and car washes, where the coating dissolves after a certain period of time. For high-value products that are more expensive, the seal will last longer, reducing the frequency of resealing required.
For purely visual reasons, the nano coating is ideal for removing dirt from the car with a simple wash. Furthermore, the nano sealing is easy to apply even by a layman. However, she is not abrasion resistant and offers only one less paint protection than a ceramic seal, since no permanent protective layer is applied to the car paint.
Wax sealing
The one based on nature Wax sealing has the shortest holding time of all types of sealing and should be regularly spaced at intervals of 3-6 months to be renewed. In contrast to the ceramic coating, the advantage of the wax seal is that the wax can be easily reapplied, without having to remove the old layer of wax. The sealing technique is therefore quicker and less complicated to handle than ceramic sealing. The advantage of ceramic sealing lies in the longer time Storage and the better paint protection, wherein the application of the sealer more time takes up.
ceramic finish
The ceramic sealing, in English also "Coating“, protects the car paint with a protective layer that is sometimes even thicker than the paint itself, so that the paint itself is less susceptible to scratches. This type of sealing technique has the longest shelf life, but is also the most difficult to apply. With ceramic sealing, the paint surface is also sustained changed since the car paint continuous is coated and this coating cannot be easily removed again. A first, permanent layer is applied and then another (thinner) layer. Only the last layer is revalued after wear, so that the first applied remains continuously on the car paint. Depending on the product, this can be up to several years.
This type of sealing is therefore not suitable for classic cars whose original paint is still in good condition, as it permanently coats the paint. The application of the ceramic seal also takes several hours, whereby the preparatory paint polish takes up a significant amount of time. However, ceramic sealers have the longest shelf life, as the layer covers the car paint like a second skin and has a harder surface structure than a wax seal. It is therefore less sensitive to scratches. Contrary to the frequent promises of some manufacturers, however, the sealing is not totally scratch resistant.
polymer sealing
The polymer seal is a synthetic seal that depends on the driving performance about 6-9 months holds, therefore something longer as a wax seal.
glass sealing
An glass sealing for windshields lets rainwater roll off, so that when driving above a certain speed, better visibility is achieved. This becomes noticeable when you turn off the windscreen wipers for a short time and drive at least about 80 km/h. The pane is then cleaned without a wiper, since the water runs off the edge of the roof. Unless you on dirt-repellent If you attach great importance to car windows and also want to have a better view in rainy weather, glass sealing is the right sealing technique. However, the effect is often already after a short time disappeared and driving without windscreen wipers works – despite various promises – in the longer term not.
After an intensive car wash, a paint seal makes sense!
After an intensive car wash and polish, the car shines like new and you want to keep this shine for a long time. To keep your car freshly washed and polished for as long as possible, you should protect against new dirt. You can achieve this effect with a paint seal, because the different types of seals were developed for the purpose of car paint to protect, the dirt better roll off and a quicker one at the next car wash shine to achieve. The dirt can be repelled more effectively during the wash if a high-quality product is used for the seal and this is applied in the best possible way beforehand. A light car wash is enough to achieve an optimal shine, provided the car not too strong is dirty.
Of course, that wasn't the end of it!
