Hello Everyone


My last car was a Miata and very easy to keep detailed due to the size of the car. I was thinking of trying the Griots one step sealant. Anyone here have experience with it??? My truck will see 3-400 miles a week highway driving and I would like something easily maintainable. Now don't get me wrong 1-2 times a year it will receive a complete cleaning and paint correction I just don't want to take on this much sheet metal every month.



Any suggestions welcomed
Jeff

 

colinite 845 is what everyone uses. They all love it. I personally have not used any type of sealant

 

Griot's Sealant is great I use it once a year with coats of their Best in Show Wax on top about every 2 to 3 months to add to it's longevity. The sealant really needs a Random Orbital to put it on to get the best use out of it.

 

I use the spay wax from them like once a month when I have time. Does a good job. I am going to try the 845 before summer.

 

I use it up here along with their leather cleaner,dash cleaning stuff, gold bar and glaze's. Of course the have a major garage a few miles up the road.

 

I've used Klasse high gloss sealant for several years on a Solstice and it holds up extremely well. Have heard great reviews on Griots products but have not personally used them.

I'm with you on the square footage of sheet metal. Got the wife to help me clay the Solstice this year in storage. 15 minutes into it she asked "Do you do THIS to the truck too?" lol

 

I've been using Griots products for 9 years with good results but I have never user their sealer. I use the Best of Show wax, their clay bar and their detailing spray.

 

I've used collenite 845 and the klasse twins. I prefer the ease of use and results of griots one step. The all in one does a great job at easily remove small imperfections by hand with my little experience.

 

I put a coat of griots paint sealant on my truck in November. Water still beads up great. A little goes a very long way. My Screw with a 6.5' bed took me about two hours and I used less than a quarter of the bottle. I've washed a couple times on warmer days with meguiars wash and wax and used griots spray wax while drying to get rid of water spots and give a little more protection to the paint. The blue jeans metallic paint really pops.

 

I never used a clay bar on a vehicle until today. I used the Mothers Clay Bar with Quick Detailer and followed up with Griots Spray on Wax today. It was super easy and did an awesome job. Check out the reflection in the paint.
