Waxes & Sealants
Eastwood is your resource for waxes, paint sealants, and ceramic coatings to protect and enhance your car's paintwork. We carry products from trusted brands like Griot’s Garage, Chemical Guys, Eastwood Concours, and others with different levels of durability, gloss enhancement, and protection against environmental elements.
Waxes are typically made from natural carnauba wax or synthetic polymers. Carnauba wax is derived from palm leaves and is known for its deep, warm shine, while synthetic waxes offer enhanced durability and longevity. Waxes provide a glossy finish that enhances the depth and clarity of the paint. They can also help to fill in minor imperfections and swirl marks, giving the paint a smoother appearance.
While waxes offer some protection against UV rays, water spots, and minor scratches, their primary function is to provide a sacrificial barrier between the paint and the elements. They need to be reapplied every few months for optimal protection.
Paint sealants are made from synthetic polymers or acrylic resins. They offer greater durability and longevity compared to traditional waxes and provide a durable layer of protection that can last anywhere from six months to a year or more, depending on the product and application.
Sealants offer superior resistance to UV rays, oxidation, acid rain, bird droppings, and other environmental contaminants compared to waxes. While paint sealants provide excellent protection, they may not enhance the gloss of the paint as much as waxes. However, some sealants are formulated to offer a high level of shine.
Ceramic coatings utilize nano-ceramic particles that bond to the surface of the paint, forming a semi-permanent or permanent protective layer. These offer unparalleled durability, with some products claiming protection for up to five years or more. They provide resistance to scratches, swirl marks, UV rays, chemicals, and environmental contaminants.
Ceramic coatings create a hydrophobic surface that repels water, making it easier to clean and reducing water spots. Ceramic coatings also provide a highly reflective finish that enhances the depth and gloss of the paint, giving it a "wet" look.
Discerning car enthusiasts turn to Eastwood for the ultimate in paint protection and enhancement. Waxes and paint sealants are popular choices for those seeking a balance between protection, gloss, and ease of application while ceramic coatings deliver unmatched durability and performance. Depending on your preferences, budget, and desired level of protection, Eastwood has the car care selection for you.
