Exclamation Got my Collinite 845 Wax in!

Ordered it based on the rave you guys said about this product.
I'm gonna put it to the test and see if it REALLY lasts 5 mo. like you guys claim.

We will see!

remember...put it on SUPER SUPER thin almost to point your asking yourself am I even applying it..only wait about 30sec then buff off..if you put it on to thick or let it dry to long its a real pain to remove.

Will do bro.
I'm stoked about it.

Wax's have ALWAYS been a let down to me as far as longevity!

I've tried a few other waxes and really like the shine it give my stock paint. It also goes on easy. It's like a paste but out here in the AZ heat it turns to liquid in my garage. Which makes it go on even easier. Good luck, you'll like the results even better if you claybar first.

Claybar'd it first.
Just got done with the wax. Took my time so it was dark when I got finished and the garage light did not let me see the real shine.

I did like the way it went on. I even let it dry for about 5 min. like most wax's instead of doing it for only 30 seconds like some members suggested. I figured if it was tougher to get off oh well.. I had the time.
Turns out it was not difficult to get off even with letting it dry so long.

If this stuff lasts as long as you guys say I believe I am indeed sold on it!

one word to the wise about this stuff...The cap on the bottle will fail..they all do..once the wax gets in the grooves it breaks it down..so NEVER shake the bottle without your finger holding the cap on or it will just fly off one day and go everywhere.
