Paint Protection on your new car can be an expensive option – but does it live up to the promises that are made?

We have tested literally 100’s of products from all around the world that offer ‘never polish or wax your car again’ or ‘lasts a lifetime’ and in our opinion there are no ‘miracle’ products out there. We would recommend you read the full terms & conditions attached to any promise or warranty so you fully understand what is being provided and what is not!

There are a number of quality products to protect your car including premium carnauba paste waxes and synthetic paint sealants, offering different finishes and very different durability. The latest development in the world of ‘paint protection’ is nano-technology, however there are a number of brands and companies using this terminology now, but it is unlikely that their products are actually this new revolutionary technology.

Real nano-technology involves designing and building a product from a molecular level, so attributes can be ‘created’ rather than blended by adding chemicals together. This allows stronger features to be developed leading to performance never before recognised for a specific purpose.

One such company that has been designing nano-technology commercial coatings for some years is Nanolex. Over the last few years they have been producing and developing new coatings for all areas of a car; paint, leather, alloys, glass, convertible roofs.

For the retail market, i.e. products that you can buy and use on your own car there is Nanolex Paint Sealant this is a high technology sealant / coating especially for paint to protect your car, and make it easier to clean. The nano-technology is designed to coat the paint with an extremely durable layer that will help repel water, dust and dirt, making it much harder for these contaminants to adhere to the car. This will also allow the car to be washed much more easily, with the weaker bonds of the dirt being broken down with just a pressure washer or pH balanced wash shampoo. Depending on driving conditions it can last for 12+ months, which in reality is up to ten times longer than some off-the-shelf waxes and polishes.

In addition there is now a Professional Paint Sealant which, at present, is only applied by approved detailers and applicators. This takes nano-technology to the next level with one application lasting on your paint for 2 years, depending on your driving conditions.

Nanolex focuses on quality sealants that protect and provide spectacular results, they are all made in Germany. The Nanolex family extends to; Rim Sealant to protect your rims and make them massively easier to clean, Glass Sealant designed to coat your glass with a long lasting surface that repels water, making visibility much clearer in all conditions, and Textile and Leather Sealant, which coats leather or upholstered seats and carpets to provide protection from liquids, spills and resist daily wear.

So if you are looking for ‘protection’ then why not look into the Nanolex range. With German quality and real results, for a fraction of the cost of a car dealer protection package – we feel that you will be amazed with the performance.
