i would suggest you try wax first, see how you like it, then netshield.

i detail on the side and put products all over my car and not wash my car to see how durable they are and how it performs.

Appearance:
wax >>>>>>>>>>>>> polymer netshield

Durability:
polymer netshield >>>>>>>>>>>> wax

Beading capability:
wax = 8/10
netshield = 9/10

depends on the wax of course, don't buy some cheap $10 wax
ahhh i see. hehe new to the whole CF caring scene but appreciate the help.

as long as it's not DRY CF

the clearcoat on CF is treated pretty much the same.

but yes, in general, always try to have something on top of the CC to protect your car
