Car Detailing/ Sealant coating on new X5

So i am picking up my new X5 xDrive, Jet black exterior this Saturday (super excited )and was wondering if anyone has any suggestions for self applying Car detailing products sealants on new X5. I like to clean and wax my own car and if anyone has done their own car detailing here, some input will be appreciated. I have read on some detailing forum about applying Zaino product (Z2, Z5, Z6), It does take some time but results are fantastic. Anyone have any experience with Zaino or similar product?

I use products by Chemical Guys - http://www.chemicalguys.com/

For a sealant I highly recommend Jet Seal - http://www.chemicalguys.com/Chemical...wac_118_16.htm

I use chemical guys too. They are close by me. The warehouse is great and they always run specials.

Tempted to apply a 'permanent' coating like opti-coat 2.0. Wondering though how much is this going to complicate things if a regular paint job is to be done on surface following a major scratch or minor wreck. Things happen.

Check out Polishangel Master sealant, It was highly recommended by a detailing shop to me when I was checking out product for my new X5 (Black Saphire).
It doesn't hurt that it is extremely easy to use either

RoadHog,

Do post pictures of your car, I haven't seen Jet Black F15. I bet it looks really nice.
