Which product would be best 1Z Glanz or Collinite Insulator wax or the 915 paste wax.

Will be used on a daily driver done three times a year prepped by hand with cleaning glaze polish then topped with one of the above sealant/waxes.
 
Cant go wrong with any of those three. If you dont already have those three, you might want to throw 885 in the mix. Durability in my opinion would be better than those listed and looks about the same. It's also cheaper than 915.
 
IME 845 can be a little unpredictable with regard to durability. Sometimes it wears like iron and other times it doesn't last all that long at all.



If going with a Collinite paste, I too would lean towards 476S/885.



The Glanz is simply *different*. AFAIK (never used it) it's much more like a typical sealant. IIRC it doesn't bead all that much, if that matters to you, whereas the Collinites bead like crazy.
 
Yea the small amount of carnuba in the Glanz wax would wear off quickly thus loosing the depth of shine whereas the Collinite would last longer in that area.



I will prep with Meguiars #9 or 1Z Metallic Polish.

Those will give somewhat different looks IME. The 1Z MP is "cleaner" looking but won't hide any flaws to the extent that #9 will. The #9 will look "richer" on some paints.
 
1Z Glanz Wax is great on dark colors.



If you seek extreme longevity, move to #885 (aka 476S) or FK's 1000P
 
It wasn't a daily driver so it's more difficult to judge. However, I'm confident you'd get at least 3 months.
