PRODUCT TEST – Chemical Guys jetSEAL109 vs M-SEAL
Posted on March 12, 2010 by T
If you read the labels of these two popular sealants from Chemical Guys, both sport the usual marketing terms for LSPs: “finest protection”, “unparalleled”, “warm glow”, “superior shine”….
What’s the difference? Well, if you go by the labels, it’s hard to tell. If you check what people are saying online, no one really has a definitive answer.
So, I devised a test to get more definitive answers comparing the two. I would apply Chemical Guys M-Seal to one side of my car, and jetSEAL 109 to the other.
Both sides were prepped the same. just a simple two-bucket wash with Chemical Guys Citrus Wash+Gloss, and a quick application of Poorboy’s World Professional Polish for an even surface to start.
Both M-SEAL and jetSEAL 109 are pure sealants. That means, unlike the Optimum Poli-Seal I tested previously, they don’t have any type of cleaner or polish in them. This means, in most cases, you will want to use something before hand (a pre-wax cleaner, paintwork cleaner, or a light non-abrasive polish, like the Professional Polish I used).
First, I taped a line straight down the middle. I used a microfiber applicator and applied a thin coat of M-SEAL on the left and a thin coat of jetSEAL109 on right. Both Chemical Guys paint sealants apply very smooth and easy.
M-SEAL’s instructions say to allow 10 minutes for it to bond before removal, and 15-25 minutes for it to cure before a second coat. JetSEAL109 instructs 15 minutes for bonding, and 20 min before a second coat.
M-SEAL bonding on the left and jetSEAL109 bonding on the right:
50/50 split with JetSeal109 applied on the right and M-SEAL on the left

For sake of consistency, they both bonded for 15 minutes and were then removed with a Ultra-Plush microfiber.

The first thing I noticed was jetSEAL was surprisingly easy to remove and M-SEAL was a bit of a pain to remove. Even with the very thing coat I applied, it took quite a bit of buffing to get the M-SEAL residue off.
I eventually got it the M-SEAL residue removed, and let both sides sit for 20 minutes to allow both sealants to cure.
After curing, I applied another coat of M-SEAL and another coat of jetSEAL 109. I let them both sit for another 15 minutes to allow proper bonding, and then removed them with another clean microfiber.

MY OPINION:
As far as look goes, I couldn’t see a difference. As for ease of use, jetSEAL109 was much easier to remove. For the $10 difference in price, I would definitely recommend jetSEAL109 over M-SEAL, just because of how much harder M-SEAL is to remove. Now, when I say that, it really isn’t as horrible as you might think. If I had only used M-SEAL, I still think I’d comment of the difficulty of removal, but since it wouldn’t be right next to jetSEAL 109, I don’t think I would put so much emphasis on it.
If you are looking for a great look, a true sealant probably isn’t the best solution. That is why the true test of these two Chemical Guys Sealants will be durability. Since this is the car I drive 300-400 miles a week (almost all highway), and park on the street in the city every day, this car was a great candidate for a durability test.
Over the next few weeks I will continues to post pictures to show how both sides are holding up as well as water beading, so check back.
产品测试 - 化学家伙jetSEAL109 VS M-SEAL
发表于2010年3月12日为T
如果你读化学家伙，无论是运动的惯用销售条款的LSP这两种流行的密封胶的标签：“最好的保护”，“无双”，“温暖的光辉”，“优越的闪耀”......。
有什么区别？好吧，如果你去的标签，这是很难说。如果你检查什么人在网上说，没有人真的有一个明确的答案。
所以，我设计了一个测试，以获得两相比较更明确的答案。我会申请化工家伙M-封我的车的一侧，并jetSEAL109其他。
双方都坦然相同。只是一个简单的两斗洗与化学专家柑橘洗+光泽，和一个平坦的表面开始的快速应用Poorboy的世界职业波兰。
两个M-SEAL和jetSEAL109顷纯密封剂。这意味着，不像最佳波利封口我先前测试，它们不具有任何类型的清洁剂或抛光在其中。这意味着，在大多数情况下，你会想用前手的东西（预蜡清洁剂，油漆清洗剂，或轻非研磨抛光，像专业波兰我用）。
首先，我录音一条直线拦腰。我用超细纤维敷贴和应用薄外套M-SEAL左侧和薄外套jetSEAL109的右边。这两种化学家伙漆密封胶应用非常顺利和容易。
M-SEAL的指示说，让10分钟，它去除之前的纽带，15-25分钟就到第二层之前治愈。 JetSEAL109指示15分钟粘合，和第二涂层之前20分钟。
在右侧的左侧和jetSEAL109接合的M-SEAL接合：

特写镜头，50/50与JetSeal109施加在左侧的右和M-SEAL
为一致起见，它们都粘结15分钟，然后用一超超细纤维毛绒除去。

我注意到的第一件事jetSEAL是非常容易拆卸和M-SEAL是一个有点疼痛删除。即使在非常的事情大衣我申请，花了抛光，以获得M-SEAL渣掉了不少。
我终于得到了它的M-SEAL渣去掉，让双方坐下20分钟，让双方密封胶固化。
固化后，我申请M-SEAL另一个大衣和jetSEAL109.另一个大衣我让他们俩坐了15分钟，让适当的粘接，然后删除它们用另一块干净的超细纤维。

我认为：
至于看云，我看不出差别。作为易于使用的，jetSEAL109是更容易除去。对于价格10元的区别，我肯定会推荐的，只是因为多么困难M-SEAL是消除jetSEAL109过M-SEAL。现在，当我说，真的不是你想象的那样可怕。如果我只用M-SEAL，我仍然认为我会评论拆除的难度，但因为它不会是旁边jetSEAL109，我不认为我会放这么重视它。
如果你正在寻找一个伟大的外观，一个真正的密封可能不是最好的解决方案。这就是为什么这两个家伙化学密封的真正考验将是耐用性。由于这是汽车的每一天，我开车300-400英里一个星期（几乎所有的高速公路），和公园大街上的城市，这辆车是一个耐久试验一个伟大的候选人。
在接下来的几个星期，我会继续张贴图片来说明如何双方都拿着以及水珠，所以请。
