need a comparison: DP wheel Glaze vs PB wheel sealant

so heres the scenario. i bought 2 jars of DP wheel glaze a while back and have been using it when necessary. i read some bad reviews of poorboys wheel sealant months ago which is why i decided against using it but tonight i read some great reviews of it. now id assume some of you have used both, so how do they compare?

Ive used all three, the only one that sucks is Wheel Wax. Messy, stubborn to remove, and seems gone at first wash. I rather like the DP version as it has a light cleaner and seems to protect for around a month per application. Poorboys is also great, a little easier to buff off, and lasts around 3-4 weeks. Really a toss up of the two for 1st place !!

I just got the DP product recently myself. I haven't had a chance to try it yet though. I had Wheel Wax before and while I thought durability was OK it was a major PITA to use. For me choosing a new wheel wax came down to the products from Poorboy's and DP. I chose the DP because it has some cleaning/polishing ability whereas the Poorboy's product is a pure protectant.

To the original glaze, I haven't used PB one but the DP one is awesome. I love it and it works well on my dad's car. Brakedust doesn't stand a chance.
To the Off-Topic glaze - yes use it before wax and there is no cure time, wipe it off and you can put the wax on top. Next time, you can start a thread and people can address your questions more specifically. (I'm not trying to be mean, hope you didn't take it that way.)

Essentially seals the wheels so that it is more resistant to the "elements," especially brake dust. Just like how you would seal/wax the paint, the wheels need similar protection as well.

Also makes washing the wheels a whole lot easier!
