My favorite sealants for this car are:
Nanolex Matte Sealant
Dr Beasley's Matte Sealant
Permanon Supermatte

The Permanon does not last as long as the others, but it is the easiest to apply and is a good thing to apply in between details (you just spray it onto the car and rinse off. No need to work in.

I used Nanolex when I bought mine, Dr Beasley's at one year, and am getting Dr Beasley's done again today at 2 years.


Now I am starting to think there is more shine, I just don't remember my last frozen car being this glossy. I am going to get a detailer to look at it next week. I guess at this point, even if there is more gloss, there is not much I can do about it.

You can call Beasley and ask how to remove it. I would imagine dish detergent would do the job.

However was your previous matte car a different color?

I have noticed that the darker matte colors have more sheen. Dark blue and black are noticeably satin rather than matte.
