Been using it a while now, awesome product, very easy to apply and gives a very nice finish, beading is really good, haven't really tested its durabilty to any degree but it does last and makes cleaning the car a lot easier.
It can ghost up on you in warm weather but on cool panels it's a breeze to apply doing small areas at a time and using a very small amount of product.

Thanks for the reply.

At what point is it best to apply as I want durability as I'm hoping to do a pre-winter clean this weekend.

I will snow foam, wash, iron x, clay etc..... As normal.

After which I would usually polish, sealant and then Colli 915.

Using the reload would I scrap the Colli and my normal sealant?

What sealant are you currently using? You'll get around 3months durabilty from reload but it can be layered up which will extend it to a point. You can use on say a monthly basis through the winter after each wash.

Tbh I'd just use reload on its own, it's a much better product for protection and durabilty up against the two products you've got. But you could layer up your 915 and use reload every month or two to bump up gloss and beading/sheeting after a wash.
