[QUOTE="FiveOhJoe, post: 14141269, member: 142535"] Both are nano coatings. IMO its a waste unless you REALLY cannot find the time to detail the car yourself every few months. I use Menzerna Power Lock sealant on both the cobra and the DD. I top it with Lusso Oro carnuba every month or so on the cobra in the summer. The sealant will last 4 months on it's own with proper wash techniques. Your other option is to use one of the better spray waxes every month or so. I like Optimum's spray sealant a lot. Pinnacle Souveran is supposed to be excellent too but I have yet to use it. I used Wolf's hard body nano coating on my last DD and I only got 7 months out of it. The 2 year thing is in the best possible conditions. If you ever wash the car, if it sees rain, if you sneeze on it lol, you're not going to get 2 years out of it. Not even close. Look up reviews of them on detailing forums and you will be hard pressed to find someone that says they recommend it. Also the shine of a nano coating doesn't hold a candle to a good carnuba. Especially on mystichrome. You want to bring out those warm colors. Nothing does that better than carnuba. Sealants are more for whites, blacks, silver, gray, etc. [/QUOTE]
