So I'm just getting into using Adams products. So far I'm really impressed with the results! I just finished detailing my truck with the following: Meguiars Gold Class shampoo > Adams Clay bar > Revive > Americana.
I was trolling the Forums and came across a thread by Dylan explaining waxes vs sealants and it got me thinking.
It got me thinking: is Americana the right protection for a DD? Or is Machine sealant the way to go? According to the article it sounds like a sealant will last longer than a wax.
My main goal is protection then gloss. It's been 100+ degrees out for the past 3 weeks straight and I'm wondering if wax is enough?
I don't have a porter cable or flex and the only sealant I see for hand is quick sealant. Can machine Super Sealant be applied by hand?
Am I worrying for nothing? Is the longevity in protection of using a sealant compared to a wax mean I will be "rewaxing" every 6 months instead of every 3 months with a wax?

Sorry if these questions seem dumb.
