Collinite 845 Insulator Wax, 473 ml, white

Product Information

In our air-conditioned garage, temp set to 74 degrees, it took about 10 to 15 minutes for the wax to dry to a haze. I turned an air mover on to speed up the process and also to To form this article on what I think is the best car wax, I’ve broken this down into segments, mainly based on the price and the type of car wax. Best Car Wax – Top 6

When do I use it? After first washing and drying paint in new condition or after first doing any claying and paint correction to older cars.The 476s is the most durable product offered by Collinite, which is why it requires a little more rubbing and elbow grease. Easy to apply, spray it - wipe it - that is it. (Hours of hard labour is converted into minutes of wiping) Many people ask "What's the difference between Collinite845 and Collinite476s?" The answer is simple, 845 insulator wax is a liquid version of 476s. Collinite845 is initiallypresented as more of a paste, this then needs to be shaken to begin to restore its more liquid state.

First and foremost, you want to follow the standard procedure for applying any wax or sealant. Start by claying the vehicle if necessary and then remove any swirls, scratches, water spots, or other imperfections. The test vehicle used for this demonstration is my daily driver, a 6th generation Honda Accord that is meticulously maintained. Because it doesn't need any correction work, and the paint was clayed just one month prior to application of the wax, I went right to the pre-wax polish. Much like we’ve discussed the importance of adding a layer of protection to the bodywork of the car, it’s also important to protect the wheels.For best results, I applied liberally to a panel, then literally spray by cloth with it and work it in. Then take a clean towel and dry/remove it from the paint. Wipe on, wipe off!

Collinite 845 Insulator Wax is best suited for lighter colours and those wanting maximum durability. This wax is an absolute steal and is very easy to apply. To apply by machine: work at a low speed with no pressure since you are simply applying a product. Use a finessing pad, then buff off with a Microfibre Towel before the products drys.If you're not careful, it's easy to accidentally pour out a LOT of wax when using this product because at room temperature, the liquid wax is fairly thin. To apply by machine: work at a low speed with no pressure since you are simply applying a product. Use a microfiber bonnet over a lambswool pad to remove Insulator Wax. Apply wax to one section at a time, wait 30 seconds, and then buff. Application is easy enough, but it is worth standing this in hot water for a few minutes before you use as it can harden. No problem though, and once it’s been sat it because liquid again. Liquid Insulator Wax is in a class all its own when it comes to long-term durability, easy application, and paint enhancement. The liquid car wax was created to insulate electrical components, but it has become one of the foremost liquid car waxes on the market by word-of-mouth of Collinite’s very satisfied customers. One of the most impressive features of Collinite 845 is its longevity. You can easily get 3 to 4 months of use out of one application, with around 7 to 8 washes in that period.

I need my car wax to last, look good and also bead like crazy. The latter is not all that important for some, but I simply love those beading shots when the rain has been coming down. With respect to all of the coatings on this list, C5 is the longest lasting. With an average advertised shelf life of 2 years, it stands head and shoulders above the other options listed here. Liquid Insulator Wax provides tough protection against adverse weather conditions. It makes a great “winter wax” when you want tough paint protection against road salt, snow and ice, without sacrificing shine.

There are all manner of treatments around, from polishes to pastes and coatings. Which will protect and preserve your wheels? We tried 12 through the harshest winter in years to find out. I have to admit that this was a product I was almost certain that I wasn’t going to like. I, like many, thought it would be overhyped and overpriced. Just before I dive in, I realise that Bead Maker is not strictly a wax, it’s a sealant. But when they are in spray form, they work in much the same way. Plus, it’s so good, that I had to include it. For best results, I find that you need to apply this by hand on to clean (ideally corrected) paint. Layer the wax with 2 to 3 coats, leaving a couple of hours between each coat to allow it cure. Once again, keep it thin layers. Overapplying is one of the biggest mistakes when it comes to applying wax to your car. My first experience with Collinite 845 would be layering it over an already cured layer of Wolfgang Deep Gloss Paint Sealant 3.0. The plan was to layer it on following the instructions on the bottle and after removing the residue, let it cure for 12 hours before layering again. Yes, it was an ambitious detailing project.
