Would you say it is durable for a North East Winter?

Default Neither, get a proven sealer such as Klasse, 4 star, or Menzerna FMJ

Of course you can buy the mothers product and reapply it sometime in the winter when we warm here and there. Just make sure to prepare your paint, clay, polish and then use your lsp of choice such as synwax. Proper prep of your paint is what will make it last.

Default My Brill. Black paint is a mess as it is. The front end is pitted & clear coat on bumper peeling

The passenger side could use a wet sanding and re-wax as well.

I would love to repaint the car but it's just not worth it for this car as it is my daily driver for work throughout NY/NJ/CT.

Just trying to maintain the looks as much as possible for as little $$ and effort.

Thanks for the suggestions anyway.

Default go with the synwax then, I have found it to last slightly longer than reflections

lasted up three months using quick detailer while trying the car every other wash

Default not very durable......

didn't like it. One of the best OTC products is Meg's High Tech Yellow Wax.

I tried Synwax in June and didn't like it. Below NXT.
