Wolfgang is one of the best sealants. I usually top it off with carnauba. Never tried it by itself, knowing that sealants are not very durable against bird droppings. Are you goint to reseal your car with Wolfgang DGPS, and then top it off with #16, Wytstang?

What exactly makes this #16 so great compared to the others? Isn't that the one youguys said had been discontinued?

Supercharged, I disagree with you about sealants not holding up to bird poop. The reason is a few weeks ago my John Deere got some dropping on it. Well, just to see how sealants hold up, I let it set for a week. It come right off with QD.
Detail late August, Klasse Twins. October got two coats of Liquid Glass. Maybe there are some that don't hold up, but mine did.

Megs 16 since being discontinued has since become like an urban legend of waxes. It had great durability and was probably the best wax to use on white cars. Everyone goes nuts over it when you can just order it from england for a few extra in shipping.

VOC regulations, first enacted in California, said that alot of the car care products used far to many volitale or harsh solvents for the environment. As such alot of products went by-by ... #16 was valued for its durability more so than its looks. Paste Glaz was valued more for its look than durability.
The value is trying to get your hands on the end of a dying breed. In all likelyhood better options exist, but its the "limited edition" or "never to be seen again" that create the buzz.

I had bad experience with Meguiar's NXT agains bird poop. If it sits just one day - had to polish it out.
Klasse twins - yes are abviously more durable. After all, SG is one of the most durable sealants. Just my $0.02.

You let bird poopsit for a week on a John Deere? That's just wrong!
Wytstang, glad to hear the WDGS is doing so well. I put 4 layers on the Jag for the Concours in September. I added a layer of Natty Blue's in October. I wish I had not topped it off with the wax.

Isn't Collinite #476 Superdouble coat paste wax just as durable as #16?
