WILL NOT LAST LONGER THAN 1 DAY

With all due respect to all other reviews. I have been in the automotive industry for 15 years and have tried most Japanese and American waxes. Despite all the hype surrounding this annual sealing wax, I bought this to set the paint on my new Nissan car. I went through a complete color and tone purification process. Wax was applied and easily removed like all others. The finish came out smooth as glass but there isn't a very deep shine (perhaps cheap Nissan paint). HOWEVER, it does not repel…

Pros
  • Ease of use
Cons
  • Appearance

Long-lasting shine and protection

I've been polishing and waxing for decades. I always strive to keep my vehicles and equipment in perfect and pristine condition. However, I have tried several waxes and sealants. German sealants require a long drying time. Jet Seal is easy to apply with a powerful applicator and can be easily removed with clean microfiber after 20 minutes. The result is superior shine and long-lasting protection. Took 6 months which might be tight as I keep all my cars under one roof or in a garage. Individual…

Pros
  • Free for education
Cons
  • Wrinkled packaging

So easy that a 13 year old can do it.

I recently picked up a pitch-black 2017 BMW X5. Having owned several black cars over the years, I understand how hard it is to make them look good. Based on the reviews here at Revain I decided to give Jet Seal a try. After washing and drying the car thoroughly, it's time to start using the Jet Seal. This is where it got interesting. My 13 year old son decided he wanted to help me. I showed him what to do and cut him off one side of the car. Using Chemical Guys blue microfiber applicators made…

Pros
  • A sea of positive emotions
Cons
  • Periodicity

Works great with paint and primer

I've been driving my new black car for weeks now in inclement Florida weather - rain, then searing heat and salty air. It looked dirty the whole time and I knew I had to protect the finish. I washed and dried the car, putty/polished small swirl marks and bird drop damage, then CG Black Light, then Jet Seal (all by hand). I immediately noticed a smooth, deep shine and color feel. The car stood all night to cure. I drove to work this morning through fog and haze and construction sites. When I got

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Blank

I really wanted to love Rocket Seal, but alas.

Jet Seal was my first step into the world of paint sealing. I read a lot of positive reviews and had high hopes. I really wanted to live this product. It holds up great, is easy to remove and looks beautiful. But this stuff doesn't hold like a sealer should. It may be a month or two before you see your water needs running out. I prefer the Wolfgang's - it's about the same price, just as easy on and off, but far outperforms the Jet Seal in looks and durability. I have a bottle and a half left so

Pros
  • Great design
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for seniors

Don't waste money!

I'm not very good at remembering all the 'right' things about my car's looks so this product bothered me once every 12 months. I just bought a new Explorer and thought I should remember to wax it once a year so that sounded perfect. Maybe I did something wrong but I don't understand how it has so many 4+ star reviews. If I had written a review about it the first day after using it I probably would have given it 5 stars. It applies easily and I found it was easy to polish by hand as well. The…

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Almost OK

You can try, but you'll most likely regret it

I don't understand why CG has such good reviews? I've seen most CG products have good reviews so I've bought a bunch of stuff from them including this JetSeal. I ran a parallel test. As with oil, wet wax failed. I used CG Jet Seal and Wolfgang WG-5500 Deep Gloss Paint Sealant side by side. The gloss level was about the same after applying both. At first it was difficult to say which is better. After two weeks, it's time to wash the car. What do you know? The Jet Seal side has lost all…

Pros
  • Protected from the harshest elements of the environment
Cons
  • I really have no complaints about it, everything is fine
