Blackfire Blackice. Worth every penny. Used Menzerna polishes before waxing.

I used Sonax seal , didn't reapply for 8 months because it was still good when i sold the car. I used it again on the new car and it hid some visibly marred areas! I look from any angle and they are gone. It didn't hid some scratches though.
With sealant on your car, it will appear cleaner for longer periods of time because seal repels some dust and dirt. It's also easier to wash the dirt because it won't stick to the paint as hard anymore.
Very important to apply the seal when the weather is not too hot, or it will dry up too quick and you'll have to do very small areas at a time.

This is what i had:
Optimum (NR2010Q) - lube, (dilute with water) it will last you years and it's super cheap compared to other lubes
Sonax (223100) - Sealant, Lasts for 2.5 cars.
Sonax (417300) - Sealant applicator, lasted for 2 cars, (i cut it in half)
Nanoskin (AS-018) - Alternative to clay, better than the blue version of it, takes about 3 times less to apply than traditional clay.
blue microfiber towels on ebay ~$10 for 10.
some type of thin silicone gloves - got them at wallmart, are necessary for determining the cleaned areas after claying.
Meguiar's G7164 - shampoo
Meguiar's X2000 - drying towel.

I notice a lot of you are using Black Light. I have an AW (Alpine White) 340i and am considering JetSeal but would like some other options. Thanks!

I use Wolfgang's 3.0, great stuff and just did a correction on my F32 this past weekend.

Labor of love.
