Recommending a great product for Pearl White

I wanted to let everyone know how pleased I was with Jeffs werkstatt Acrylic Jett Trigger. I purchased this sealant after I read Kevin's synopsis on how he cleans his car. Kevin recommended this product for white metallic color cars I.E. (White Pearl - 2007 G35). I sealed my car this past weekend with the greatest of ease (30 minutes max). Just spray and wipe. The look and feel were simply awesome. I know I know, where are the pics. No time for pics, you just need to trust me on this one.

I was never into detailing or even cleaning my cars (excluding my interior) because I always had used cars. Now with my NEW car, I want to keep it as nice looking as possible. It's like a new toy at Christmas. Now I just need to keep it up after football starts

Surface preparation – for optimal results the surface of a light coloured paint to show gloss is very much dependant upon good / excellent paint condition, adequately prepped to remove contaminants and minor imperfections. Washed, cleaned, polished and a polymer sealant or a Carnauba wax added

Products- (Klasse AIO and SG, Jeffswerkstatt - Acrylic Jett) these sealants will provide a flat silvery-white shine, but without ‘depth’. By adding Zaino Clear Seal (Z-CS) or a Carnauba wax as an LSP (Pinnacle Souverän Paste Carnauba or Autoglym Super Resin Polish) the oils that are formulated in the Carnauba waxes provide a reflective gloss, which causes jetting (a ‘wetting’ of the surface)

Detailer’s clay (Sonus SFX Ultra-Fine Detailing Clay Bar) and / or Paint cleaner (Zaino PC or AIO, Klasse AIO) should be a regular part of the preparation process.

Thanks TOGWT, I will add the Zaino or LSP on top of the Jetts.

I use Sonus, Klasse, and P21S products. I use the Sonus #2 swirl scratch remover, followed by either Mothers Polish/wax or Klasse AIO. I then top with one to two coats of P21S Carnuaba wax.
I have been quite pleased with the results on my IP....Although its a little more work, I know the surface preparation adds to the overall gloss and reflection properties of the Sealant/Wax.

A couple of recent shots of my last detail...don't mind the dust, it was pretty windy the day I detailed it.
