Synthetic or man-made,
"waxes" are called paint sealants. Made with state-of-the-art,
engineered, polymers, the best sealants create a sizzling, bright shine that
grabs your attention. Sealants are the exact opposite of carnauba waxes having a
very high surface adhesion with a low surface tension. This means sealants can
last for 6 months or more and have a slippery finish which sheets water to
minimize water spots. Sealants are highly resistant to detergent washings and
are typically easy to apply either by hand or machine.
On the minus side, sealants
have been criticized for producing a sterile shine, lacking in emotion, depth
and wetness although the newer, German, sealants come very close to mimicking
carnauba's darkness and liquidity. Sealants are less forgiving on poor paint
finishes, tending to high light or amplify swirls, spots and paint
imperfections.

"I
own a detail shop and have lots of different waxes but BLACKFIRE is
superior in every way, exceptional shine, durable and in all ways
fantastic. My customers are asking to have it applied over all the other
products I offer. Thanks for a great sealant."
