Here you go, this is what I have been using. The bottle is probably ten years old, the current name for this product is Pledge FloorCare Multi Surface Finish. When I was still working in the lab I had some of this stuff analyized. Future is 75% volitiles, so when you put a coat of it down only 25% will be left when it dries. The coating is not nearly as durable as a good solvent based clear.

TY !!!
Can you suggest a good solvent based clear ?

[bobbyraz49]

The local supermarket only had Future Concentrated and is light blue in color.
Is that what I am looking for ?

No.

It's now called Pledge with Future shine.

I think it has morphed again. This is what I've been told is the current Pledge product with Future in it:

For a solvent based clear I now use Testors clear. Krylon Crystal Clear also works well. For a while I was using Dupli-Color automotive clear, which is more durable than paints that are intended for plastic models. When the can that I was using ran out I was not able to find the same exact product and the stuff from the new can was so hot that it attacked the paint. Paint products often get reformulated, a new can of your favorite paint might have a different combination of solvents and may not play well with what is already on the car. It is always best to do some test sprays.
