I like using either DG 501 since it has a salt retarder in it for winter use...since its a marine sealant..and it does fine all winter...

summer I use collinite 855 marine wax...works great also

Now for the JS 109..I did one wheel last spring with 109..rest collinite..and the 109 wheel was the hardest to clean after about 4 weeks...the grime was just stuck to the wheel and the waxed wheels came clean with just soap and water...

I have heard Rejex is great for wheels also...pretty durable and cleans up nice...I may try some since its cheap on ebay...

Poorboy's wheel sealant is what my Little Detailer likes the best. The smell makes him smile. Teaching him to apply thin layers was a trying experience at least for me,. But we perseveered until the jar was empty. Always did a good job. Just have not ordered any in a while.

Collinite 845 has been the product of choice of late. It has been doing the job well for a month. Cleans up easy as well.

Either one is a good choice, IMO. In fact, I think almost any quality sealant will do more than a fair to middlin job.

i have used several sealants on wheels and prefer OS or other WOWO products because they are so much faster and work well.

Poorboys is nice and provides a glossy, slick finish. Collinite 845 is great also and will last a while. I used 845 and topped it with Optiseal.
