So wax instead of sealant?
andrewparker:
I'd do a bit of research on the differences between paint sealant and wax. In my eyes, rightly or wrongly, both are LSP products so both do pretty much the same job. Sealants are reportedly better suited to lighter coloured cars because they enhance the glossiness, whereas wax increases the depth in darker coloured cars. Application is also very difference. Sealants are liquid based so are very simple to apply, whereas wax is a paste and must be 'cured' for a period of time before removing. Wax generally has to be topped up every couple of months, whereas sealants can work for 6 - 8 months.

Cheers Andrew. So can I put sealant on my colour? (Laser Blue). Waxing sounds a bit tricky!

Sealants can be paste eg fk100p
Sealants and waxes are best applied directly to paint. If you use srp, it has some limited protection capabilities. Sealants are synthetic and have longer durability but I prefer the look of a wax on darker cars.
