Just had the touring painted and i want to protect the paint as much as possible with it being red again and not pink.
I usually use meguiars 3 step stuff but is it enough or should i also use a sealer and if so which one?.
Btw its cellulose paint if it makes a difference.
Thanks

I don't think you can go wrong with any of the meguiars products... You just got to be careful with red paint apparently (according to my bro who paints cars)

you should wait a bit before you do the treatment as the paint needs to breath and dry natural for a bit ,even the wax/polish bottle will say not to use it on fresh paint
