Been using Zaino Clear Seal for years and quite frankly, don't want to pay $30.00 plus $10.00 shipping anymore. Besides, it seems to be very difficult to get it to spread evenly over a recently waxed (Fuzion) car.

I'd like to locate a similar product that has the durability and shine of Clear Seal but not the price. Would really like it if it spreads more evenly. Are there others out there?

Thanks!

Zaino makes many fine products. Clear Seal is indeed well liked and used.

Other similar products exist:

Wolfgang, DP, Blackfire, Dodo Juice and Optimum immediately come to mind. Many different price points likely based upon size and brand. I have used many, but not over Fuzion specifically.

Have you thought of trying a spray sealant or spray wax instead ?? Something like Prima's Hydro Max , Perhaps another choice.

While the 30 bucks plus shipping may seem expensive, a bottle of Zaino Clear Sealant seems to last forever since you use so little product. After doing an entire car you can barely notice a difference in the level of the bottle. It also lasts a long time on the car. A nice Z8 finish seems to enhance the shine and makes it even more durable. I know this doesn't answer your question, but when you figure all this in the price isn't that bad IMO.

I was ready to give up on Z-CS as despite every attempt to spread it thinly and evenly it did not dry clear and it left streaks. However, once I started doing a wipedown with Z-8 Spray Seal immediately after applying the Z-CS the results were outstanding. I know the stuff is pricey but it does go a long way if applied correctly and for me the results are well worth the cost. I have tried a number of the similar products and for my money the Z-CS/Z-8 combo beats them all.

Are there any less-expensive products someone can recommend that is similar to Clear Seal?

I have been very pleased with the Blackfire Crystal SeAL from autogeek. I use a number of their Blackfire products on my 2 SUVs. But quality products are still not cheap.

I keep the Zaino for the Corvette. One order from Zaino lasts me about 2 years. I put on about 9-10 coats of polish plus clear seal with z-8 each year. Detailing the corvette about one a month for me is much cheaper than a therapist
