I just purchased a 2006 Cobalt SS Supercharged (great car by the way with 0% Financing) Anyway, I`m looking for something that is going to hold up to the brutal winters that we face sometimes here in the northeast. I`ve been a huge Meguiars person, NXT has been my go to wax. But the durablity has just not seemed to be there. I`m not exactly looking for a crazy amazing finish, I`m looking for the durability and something that looks good
I have a few choices I`ve been thinking of...
Zaino (used on other cars with great results before)
Menzerna Acrylic Jacket
Prime Acrylic
I`m open to any suggestions..

Z5pro/ZFX, I say if you don`t feel like buying ZFX to go with Collinite. From a durabilty stand point these always are at the top. I can`t wait to try that red dot 49, maybe that will give these guys a run for their money.

The Klasse Twins is about as strong as you can get.
I haven`t tried Collinite yet, but heard the 845 is more durable than lots of sealants out there.

October of 95 I used Menzerna ,Intensive polish, Final Polish ll, Finishing Touch Glase and Full Molecular Jacket three coats on my 97 Audi A8 drove it throughA North Dakote winter come spring washed it and it looked good, not that it did not need work but it still had A good shine. I have used A lot of sealants and waxes that where good but for ease of application and durability I am very happy with Menzerna.

I`d recommend collinite 845 or 476. If you`re looking for durability, go with 476. 845 gives slightly more shine and is easier to apply/remove. I would say 845 does have some cleaning agents, it smells kinda toxic :)
