A sealant is a protective product used in the final stage of detailing that is made up of polymers. Sealants can come in liquid form, such as professional sealants from the likes of Gtechniq and CARPRO, and also in spray form from brands like Chemical Guys and Angelwax. There are specialty sealants for all kinds of jobs, from glass and paintwork to wheels and trim.

Most sealants are made to form a chemical or covalent bond to the surface of your paintwork which allows the sealant to last longer than a traditional wax. Sealants also offer you stronger protection from the elements and things such as tree sap, acid rain, UV rays, and bird droppings. Despite sounding scientific with phrases such as ‘chemical bonding’, paint sealants can actually be easy to apply. There’s the easiest to apply sealants such as liquid sealants and spray sealants which you can get the hang of before progressing onto the more professional standard sealants. Some of our sealants will have YouTube videos attached which will tell you all you need to know about how to apply them safely and properly.

Whether your primary objective is to add gloss, surface slickness, resist swirls, or simply to avoid contaminants and promote long term dirt repellency, Gtechniq Crystal Serum Light is at the very pinnacle in paint protection. EXOv4 Ultra Durable Hydrophobic Coating Sealant is the latest version of Gtechinq's hugely popular EXO formulation. The coating offers extreme hydrophobic function to the vehicles surface, protecting your paintwork from even the harshest weather, lasting for over 18 months. Offering both supreme water and dirt repellency, the sealant creates a barrier resistant to washing chemicals and heavy road grime.

Conventional waxes and polishes are only placed on the paint surface and are soon removed after a few washes of your vehicle and with environmental influence (differences in temperature, rainfall, sun, dust particles and wind). Professional sealants are made to form a chemical or covalent bond to the surface of your paintwork which allows the sealant to last longer than a traditional wax. Sealants also offer you stronger protection from the elements and things such as tree sap, acid rain, UV rays, and bird droppings. Professional sealants guarantee a long lasting coating with extreme strength resistance and water-repellency so you’ll get that hydrophobic beading look we all know and love!
