I am mostly interested in protecting the paint. thanks, phil Phil, Adam's Quick Sealant is just fine as a last step Protection product, or if you want, you can layer over it with Brilliant Glaze and APW. It is just fine by itself though. Mook Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Chewy Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 All I use is AQS... Nothing more! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Redbeard Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 All I use is AQS... Nothing more! Dude, you're missing out on many fine products! I keep finding more, but so far this is my favorite use for AQS: http://www.adamsforums.com/forums/general-detailing-discussion-questions/20214.htm It makes cleaning bugs off the front of my truck so easy (also credit to WW)!

0 Chris@Adams Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 QS will give you great protection, I just did my Ram Sport for the Winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 JBlack151 Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 I've been using QS as the LSP a lot lately trying to get all the customers cars done for the winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Team Adam's Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 By itself QS will give you a ton of protection... the main reason people wax over the top is for the added gloss/shine, but it does also add another layer of 'sacrificial' protection. A coat of wax over your sealant is like protection for your protection... if that makes sense. The wax will take the brunt of the exposure until it fails, then the sealant will be your primary protection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One other thing worth mentioning is QS is so quick to apply, I think that it took me a whole 20-30 min. to do my Ram. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Team Adam's Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 Agreed... its all thats protecting my truck right now and its so easy/fast to apply I haven't bothered going to wax yet... but I probably will this summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 ChargerMatt Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 MSS for my protection for winter. Easier to apply than QS... imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Bassmaster Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 Probably a frequent question.. But does MSS and QS offer the same protection and longevity? QS just being the spray version which is easier to apply? sent from your HTC Rezound Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reason I use quick sealant is when I'm putting Americana over it. There's a 30 minute cure time compared to a 24 hour cure time with MSS.
