    I use Duragloss and the next day apply some Collinite. Both products are extremely durable and affordable and give a very good glow.

    Re: Durable wax

    Great suggestions from all the guys!

    Sealants are synthetic or man made waxes. They last a good long time and can be layered to add additional brilliance, depth, and protection. There are quite a number is quality sealants available and once the finish is prepared sealants apply very easily.

    Paint Sealants like Klasse, Wolfang Deep Gloss Paint Sealant

    I generally add a wax over a sealant and one of my favorites is Collinite 845.

    Collinite 845 is creamy and lays down gorgeously thin when applied with my Porter Cable 7424 polisher and a red foam pad. 3 dime sized dots of Collinite 845 with adequately cover the entire hood of my truck and then some. This give you a glimpse of how little product it takes to be very effective. Waxes work well over sealants bit not the other way around..

    There are additional product taking the detailing world by storm called nano coatings. One sold through Autogeek is Optimum Opti-Coat 2.0 and from what I've read it's amazing in both terms of shine and longevity.

    Optimum Opti-Coat 2.0 - Optimum Opti-Coat 2.0 Permanent Paint Coating FREE BONUS

    CarPro CQuartz - CQuartz Ceramic Quartz Paint Protection, CQuartz nano coating, nano paint sealant

    There are others on the market which appear to be quite good but these are quality coating and can easily be purchased here through Autogeek..

    Wolfgang Deep Paint Sealant has my vote. I read alot of people like Collinate 845. I have that on my radar.

    Re: Durable wax

    For waxes, the Collonite line is hard to beat for durability, good looks and an affordable price. 915 paste and 845 liquid are my 2 favorites.

    If you want a really durable LSP combo try DG 501 topped with 845. One of the best for durability in my opinion and again they won't hurt your wallet and they look fantastic on all colors.

    Re: Durable wax

    For a wax collinite 845 and a for sealant DP poli-coat paint sealant. Both very good long lasting products..

    To achieve excellence, excellence cannot be rushed. Technique is just as important as the product used.
    While my approach takes more time, the results are far superior.

    Re: Durable wax

    If may I suggests Poor Booy's Exsealant W/carnauba...applies very easy and a little goes a long way.
