I'm a huge fan of Wolfgang sealant, I usually top it with meguiars no. 26 paste for some extra pop.

So if you were going to add one more to your arsenal. Would you pick Fk1000p, Duragloss 111, or Fusso coat? I have Wolfgang and Sonax PNS but looking for something for the occasional neighbor or extended family cars.

DG #111...price, ease of use and looks, no contest!

Thanks Klasse! Do you top with Collinite 845 or just DG 951?

I wouldn't top #111 with anything other than Aquawax and this is coming from someone who used to layer everything. I know people like #845 because of its ease of use being a liquid but it's not even close to being the best Collinite product. Bad info out there turns people off to #476 and especially #915, both superior products AND easy to use when appllied correctly...Which is very thin.

Btw don't forget to mix in #601 with #111 so you can add a 2nd layer right away.

100% agree. In addition to longevity there's easy of use and application. That the DG products have essentially zero cure time for going outside or layering and still have great durability is very valuable to me. If I want to layer something else that needs 24 hours between coats that means my car is out of commission for 2 days in bad weather vs 15 minutes. Even if 12 hours between, that's a full day of the car being garaged. Not always practical.

This topic got me really intrigued about FK 1000, so I bought some and after a good washing put a coat on my wife's Pilot. FK1000 is a huge can for the price. The nice thing about it beside the shine and slickness is how easily it buffs off. Ease if removal leans much closer to WG than Collinite.
 
Yeah thanks. I have DG 105 and used it mixed one time 4:1 on family members truck. It was good but being that the truck was white I think the 111 would probably be much better. Seems all the cars that people want me to do are either white or black. Funny. Will also have to get some aqua wax for the next one with some Aquawax.

I’ll probably get some Fk1000p too. Lol
 
111 and Track Claw (both DG products) outlast 105 for me by quite a bit. 105 is a cleaner/sealant vs. just a sealant for 111 and Track Claw. FK1000 and Collinite 845 are possibly longer lasting than any of the DG products mentioned.

I'm pretty sure #111 lasts longer than #845. I mean I like Collinite as much as DG but #111 is one of the best sealants out there and if you add #601 to it, forget about it!

111 and 845 are both holding up in my testing at ~23 weeks through Fall and Winter. Even if they stopped now that would be crazy good. PNS still hanging on but fading.

I have many more products to check out, but so far if I consider ease of application + longevity, PNS is excellent. Price to performance, FK 1000 and 845 are fantastic. A can of FK 1000 would probably cover a zillion vehicles. I would be amazed if any non-pro ever used an entire can of that stuff. And if they did they likely used too much of it.

That's a fact, even for business one can has lasted since 2015 and just go to the point or ordering another and only because I dropped it but still have enough probably for 10 or more cars no problem

I really just wish there was a better way to apply it, I'm still working with the melting and putting in the deodorant tubes but looking at other methods as well

Yes, it's a little stiff. Warmed up 845 has an application over FK 1000.

How about using a small polisher with 3" pad. Stick the pad in the tub and "blip" the trigger to get some wax onto the pad. Proceed to machine wax the panel.

I've done this using the Meg's DA Power System, rigged to a Milwaukee M12 Right Angle Drill, and I believe the 3" Griots wax pad. Worked pretty well, even one handed.
 
I guess out of the options listed Wolfgang would be the longest lasting. But I tend to stick with sealants that are easier to apply over longer lasting. Why not use something with a bit less durability but has an ease of use that is superior and doesn't require a 12 hour no moisture cure time? Out of the items sold on AG I don't think you can go wrong with Opti-Seal, C2v3, or Ultima Paint Guard +
 
we use quite a bit Menzerna Powerlock very nice shine and protection at least 5-6 months
