Most likely Collinite, but Duragloss will not be far off. It really depends on your prep before application because I have found that Collinite's (or any LSP, just more pronounced with Colli) durability is touchy to the conditions and prep you apply it under or after respectively.
Anyways, you really can't go wrong between the two in my view!

What do you mean? I will be polishing, then applying Colli.

DG105 for me. Easy on, easy off, great durability, and looks really good on light colors. Collinite paste waxes are hard to work with if its your first time. If you dont put on a super super super thin coat its going to be a bear to remove.

I quite like using the Collinite 915, I would suggest this one. There is just something about it that I like.
Great stuff, glossy and durable as HECK! I use it on my wheels and even when it's been covered in brake dust and experienced high heat for a couple of weeks, it's still there.

Collinite is at its best when applied to a squeaky clean surface.
I use 845IW liquid and it's easy to use.

Thats fine, just make sure you use a pre-wax cleanser or an IPA wipedown before you apply Collinite to get its maximum durability.

I would use both products for the best durability. Apply the Duragloss Polish Bonding Agent first and than apply the Duragloss Total Performance Polish. Once the (TPP) cures apply a thin coat of Collinite Marque D'Elegance Carnauba Paste Wax.

Thanks everyone!! :dblthumb2:
I used Duragloss 601->501 and put 2 layers of Collinite 476 on top a few months ago. I applied the Collinite in cool weather and it wasn't hard to apply or remove. I didn't have to moisten the applicator to help spread it out. I just spread it out thinly and did a couple panels, and then buffed it off. So Collinite 915 shouldn't be that different. I actually want to try it as it's supposed to give the best look, and just as durable.
I however phoned Duragloss a couple a weeks ago to ask them a few questions on a variety of things and I spoke with Gerry. He and his brother are actually the ones that develop their products. He said that wax will degrade the duragloss underneath. He also said 601 should increase the durability of their LSPs by 25-40%. He said you can layer 2-3 layers of DG105 and 6-7 layers of DG111 because it is a pure sealant.
