List of Chemical Guys Products now available at Detailed Image

I'm excited to announce that www.DetailedImage.com now carries many of premier Chemical Guys products at our store. We spent a lot of time researching different companies and brands we wanted to make a long term commitment to and working with Chemical Guys became a very obvious choice. Chemical Guys is a huge manufacturer of high quality detailing supplies. They are constantly researching, developing and refining a lot of their own products, as well as developing products for other manufacturers, which helps them stay on the cutting edge of detailing technology. There products are geared towards exceeding the needs of even the most particular detailers. Here is a list of products that we are currently carrying from Chemical Guys at this time, although this will definitely be growing. Please look through these products and see what solutions Chemical Guys have developed to help solve your detailing needs.

We'll continue to add products to our collection and would like your input. If you've had a positive experience with any of these products or other Chemical Guys products, please post it up so I can get a better idea on what you guys would like to see carried at Detailed Image.

What advantage does Jetseal have over MSeal to justify it being double the price?

The finish that it gives off is closer to a carnauba wax. It's very deep and wet without anything on top of it. Look at the clarity of this G37 that used JetSeal109, simply stunning.




*Pictures from this post*

M-Seal is not quite as deep and gives a look more of the traditional synthetic sealant. JetSeal109 is also supposed to give a little longer durability. JetSeal109 may be around 4 - 6 months of protection, where M-Seal may be closer to 3 - 5 months.

Bang for the buck for a sealant under $20, I'd pick M-Seal, and top it with a wax if the extra depth and gloss is desired.

Hope this helps.

This is the order of entire detailing process is:
  1. Wash & Dry
  2. Clay Bar
  3. Polish (can include multiple steps of polish)
  4. Glaze (optional, will enhance depth and gloss and fill in minor imperfections)
  5. Sealant
  6. Wax

So to answer your question, you'd apply Jet Seal first, ideally let it cure for 24 hours, meaning do not apply any wax or a second coat of Jet Seal until a day passes. This will give you maximum durability, allowing the polymers to properly cross link and bond to your surface.

Adding a wax on top can further enhance the depth and gloss even further if you can believe it

You guys are sooo smart!!!

Thanks George! That really helps and makes perfect sense. My husband is eyeing the Jet Seal. We have Klass AIO and some good carnuba wax. (I also have a clay bar...I'm on it!) I guess we just need the Jet Seal now.

Thanks again you guys.
