Question on sealants. I typically use rejex but hate waiting on the cure time because i always follow up with a coat of wax.

On your sealants...is there a cure time? or in better words are there any sealants that you can wax right over after applied and buffed off?

Thanks.

Each product will have a slightly different cure time depending on how it was applied, temperature, humidity, etc. I'm not aware of a sealant that will cure instantly but some are faster than others. Probably the quickest curing sealant I have used is the Optimum (OPT) Opti-Seal. It's applied really thin and provides a strong layer of protection. Here's some info from right Optimum about the Opti-Seal "The hyper concentrated polymer sealant begins cross-linking as soon as it hits the paint. Opti-Seal flashes almost immediately to leave a polymer film on the paint. Opti-Seal is not a short-cut product. It is a state-of-the-art, stand-alone spray sealant that provides real, durable protection for paint, plastic trim, and wheels."

Check out this review and tons of pictures from Todd at Esoteric Auto Detail on this Black 2008 Chevy Corvette Z06 with Opti-Seal. I think the pictures speak for themselves about the shine!

With most other sealants I like to wait at least 12 - 24 hours before applying a second coat or applying a wax. During this time the sealant will bond nice and tight with the paint so you get maximum durability. Sometimes I will do a detail later in the evening and let it cure overnight and then apply a wax the next day to help minimize the time I can't drive. Let me know if you have any other questions.
