Dalawa lang gamit ko, Mother's Sealant at NuFinish.

NuFinish holds better on rainy days and even hot weather. no hard buffing needed and last more than six months in my experience. Matatapos na warranty ng Innova ko konti palang nagagamit ko sa bottle

Ito po ba yung turtle wax wash and wax?

you know what my take on this, any reputable brand ng wax will do good on your paint, anyway it's raining more or less you're going to wash your car din naman, then just wax again after washing your car..so it won't really make any difference kung mahal na brand or yun mura..the important thing is wax your car regularly...

Yep! That's the best policy.
Also, you don't have to do the whole car after you wash. Just remember that the horizontal surfaces take the most punishment from the elements.
If you're strapped for time, after you wash, you can probably be okay by just rewaxing the hood, then the boot, then the roof (depending on how much time you've got).

The hood takes the most punishment -- engine heat + rainwater + sun + cats. You'll probably want to have a fresh coat of wax on your hood often, especially when it's raining.

Next comes your trunk/boot -- water + sun + fingerprints from the mall parking security checks (grrr). You'll definitely also want to re-wax as often.

Last is the roof -- water + sun + occasional bird bomb.

So wala palang kwenta ang mga QD this rainy season?

I agree with shadow and ess. You just have to wash and/or wax often. As to what brand of shampoo or wax, use that which works for you.

Incidentally, I found this on youtube:

Kung ito kaya ang coating ng car natin? Wash and wax often pa kaya tayo?
