Here's a couple checks to help you decide on wax or sealant.
1.Does it get over 90 degrees in the summer at your house? Sealant
2.Do you have a black or dark vehicle? Sealant
3.Do you have #1 and #2? Sealant for sure
4.Do you want more than 1 week or up to 3 months of protection? Sealant
1.Do you want a deeper wet looking shine? Wax
2.#1 is debatable compared to sealants.
3.Arguably easier to apply? Wax
The heat or dark color deal is this. Your car panels can and DO, get over 140F in the summer sun. Carnuba deteriorates and breaks down in that kind of heat. Meaning it won't last very long.
Another general rule of thumb, the easier it is to apply or remove the shorter it will last. If you are sweating and rubbing your bum off, it's going to have some enduring protection. All those miracle, spray on wonder products last about a week. Like the wax feature at your local car wash LOL. Beads up for about 30 minutes.
