    I've never used the Fusso, but have used all three others. As for durability, I think FK has a slight edge over 476 and 915. Collinite says on their web page that 476 lasts longer than 915, but 915 has more of a carnauba glow,especially on dark colors. My experience mirrors that, but the durability difference is minimal, IMO. BTW, FK is superb on wheels, lasting and protecting longer than anything else I've ever tried, short of a coating.

    Any other experiences?

    I find it hard to fathem that such and old formula such as the collinites still hold up against (and mostly beat) today's potions

    Isn't the fusso coat a new product?

    how old is the fk1000p product?

    I personally like/love Collinite 476 but have also used and enjoy FK1000P. On customer vehicles I use Collinite in the fall/winter for durability. I use FK in the summer for it's heat resistance. Both are excellent. Collinite tends to attract a bit more dust which is worth noting on solid dark paint.

    Fusso Coat 12 months has the most durability. Soff99, makers of Fusso 12 months, touts 12 month durability. It contains a fluorine derivative PTFE (what Teflon is made of in part). It's hydrophobicity is great. It is more of a sealant than a wax. You only need a thin (very thin) coat. Two thin coats 12-24 hours apart is best for durability. However, its shine is only fair compared to other products. FK1000 is very good, but not as hydrophobic as Fusso. I have not used 476, but I do like 915 for its shine/gloss. Fusso as a sealer and topped with 915 may provide the most durability and gloss. Just my opinion/experience - others may vary! Best of luck!!

    FK1000 is actually a Marine product so is designed to stand up to life on the water so perhaps that's why it is so durable on automotive finishes.

    Maybe buy all 4 and do a comparison, then share the results

    A nearly similar analogy can be
    made for Collinite #s 845/925...
