Title: Colinite
Post by: Conker on 17 August 2008, 18:13

Love the results, but sweet baby jesus its hard to buff off. I don't think I was putting it on too thick (maybe a bit thickly, but any less and the coverage was patchy). It took prob nearly two hours to buff off.  :undecided:

My arms are killing me, but the glass like finish was worth it. Any tips for easier removal?

how long did you leave it haze for?

did you apply with a damp MF?

i applied a thin layer over a very small area - took a while but the coverage is even  :smiley:

then i let it haze about 15 minutes and buffed off

It was 476s.

The MF wasn't damp. I let it haze for about 30min. I'm thinking it was WAAAYYY too thick now. It dried like f##king glue.


Anyhoo... Its just rained and the water beading is PHENOMENAL. It looks like someones stuck hundres of clear marbles all over the car!  :grin:
