    Just wondering what's everyone planning to be using as their winter LSP...I wanna try DIFFERENT combos on different cars, and was even thinking about BHAB as a winter sealant, which I never used before...Tight beading action is a must, and so is durability...
    Anyone planning on using super durable sealants, such as Optimum Poli-Coat, Nanolex, Gtechniq, or Aquartz/Cquartz? What's your plan of action?

    2 coats of 845 and then I'm done. I give much respect to all of those super-coatings, but I'd lose my mind if I couldn't strip and put a fresh coat of something on once in a while.

    I'm planning on DG601/DG105/Colli 845 on my car. The wifey's SUV is getting a (2) of Colli 845 and a layer of RG55.

    I might change my plans though ... LOL

    Haha, same here. I normally just use Collinite 915 on the Z since it is surprisingly durable, looks great on metallics, and has great beading. I have Gtechniq C1 on order as well as Cquartz but Gtechniq has been trying to ship my order twice and something happened in shipping both times.

    Utah winters are not very kind due to the salt on the roads. Last year I used a coat of polymer sealant from P&S and a layer of 845. It held up very nicely. I think this year I will try powerlock.

    I'm planning on running my current setup of Dodo NFS Cleaner Wax + several coats of Fuzion + BF Spray Sealant (w/Polycharger) until December, adding two or three more coats of Fuzion every month until end of December when the weather really gets bad.

    Then I plan on switching to BF Wet Diamond Gloss Enhancing Polish (cleaner-glaze), 2x BF All Finish Paint Protection w/CH2 Polycharger, topped and maintained with Optimum Car Wax. This should work just great from December through March.

    In the bad winter months, it's more important to stay on top of frequent car washes than to look for the most insane durability around. Two coats of any decent sealant will get the job done when it comes to winter protection unless you are in Colorado or Utah where it snows balls every other day.

    I'm in Cali so it isn't all that bad but I really do like using 845 or Meg's #16.
