Default my thoughts on megs 21

i love this sealant, its the only sealant i have currently. long story short, it was kind of given to me last year, and ive been using it ever since.

first off id like to show a video of a single coat of megs 21 that has been on the car for about 2-3 weeks
P4081010.flv - Video - Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting

i find that it beads water really well, and is pretty durable too. the longest i went without doing a LSP on my car was last year, and it was beading water well into the 2 month period.
and sorry about the cloverfield camera work =P



i also love the finish it leaves. the slickness is also better than any OTC wax ive used. for a synthetic, it leaves a pretty nice finish, wet, but not as wet as a carnuba might make it, but it also has pretty crisp reflections






edit- the top 3 pictures above are taken after i applied a second coat. i had a car meet the next day, and i wanted to do another coat just for that added slickness (keep in mind the car still had the slickness from the previous coat)
the bottom picture was taken a couple days later, and just shows the wetness of my paint

however i think i do want to try other sealants because i know there is better stuff out there. but for something i got for free i cant complain at all

I have tried quite a few sealants and I still love my M21! I have the old version. The old M21 seems similar to the new NXT, except the new NXT has more filling ability.

Great pics, thanks for the write up

i would have to agree with you on that. the slickness it leaves feels almost the same... although IMO 21 lasts alot longer.

what your guys thoughts on layering 21? im still on the fence about layering products...
