Wax (natural or synthetic) provides a deep, warm finish but it usually lasts only about 2-3 months. It is suitable for show cars at events, or to those who want the best shine.

Sealants have greater protection and longevity opposed to wax but do not provide the depth and warmth of natural wax. It's better suited for vehicle owners looking for an affordable solution to paint protection

Ceramic quartz coating has better safety and durability relative to sealants and improved gloss levels close to waxes, but the cost of getting it properly applied by a detailer will be higher due to the extensive preparing needed such as paint correction. This is best suited for everyday cars, and long-term car-lovers wanting the best value.
