Default House of Kolor vs. Dupont Clear coats?

Car is in the final stages of my new paint scheme and I and trying to decide which clear will yield the best results with shine and depth? I have previously used the Dupont but I have seen great results too with the HOK, I have just never sprayed their clears. Any help please.

Not sure of their clears but I know sometimes HOK bc and mid coats can be touchy when using HOK clear on them. I like Dupont clears they lay down nice and have good gloss out of the can.

I have posted this pic before. This is my car cleared with Dupont, the fire is HOK. The clear Deffinately has the deep wet look. You will be happy with it. Oh and in this picture it had come out of the paint booth, buffed out, pressure washed and NOT dried and sat for 3 weeks. Then I took this picture.

I hear hok clears don't last very long since they are more show oriented and people usually repaint them every 6 months
