Been using collinite 915 for years it great :cool:
I need to buy some more and just wondered what everyone's thoughts on it are - is there something better out there now?
Or should i just stick with it? :smiley:
-
Depends on what you are looking for from the wax, as with the colly you get a lovely glossy finish and great level of protection.

I prefer Dodo SN paste wax , but colli is very good also !! Why dont you give it a try Paste wax ? :wink:

Still got some in a sample pot from Volkfest a few years ago :shocked: :shocked: Also got a nice big tub of it too :afro:

well said above chaps ;) collinite topped with purple haze is heavenly :D
if you just want collinite again id suggest 845 for its durabilty and ease of application, also its very very economical.
-
Thanks for all the help guys :cool:
-
Tbh purple haze has grown on me but dont get sucked into dark and light paintwork waxes by dodo!
Colli is ok but not very good on metallic flake pop for me. Ohh and please dont rub waxes onto paintwork with fingers, that is just silly and you end up wasting it.
Tiki wax is another favorite

Used my SNH for the first time today, very impressive, great looks and the beading is ridic.

you could try 845 insulator wax... http://www.waxamomo.co.uk/index.php?app=ecom&ns=prodshow&ref=c845i (http://www.waxamomo.co.uk/index.php?app=ecom&ns=prodshow&ref=c845i)
for me its very, very good vfm but provides an even coat and great beading and protection.. similar to 915 but easier to apply ;)

i'm partial to fk1000p its a sealant, but beading is nice and durability is meant to be good.
takes 20 mins to cure though

i find fk1000p better for sealing rims,tail pipes etc due it withstanding higher temps, collinite 845 is a cracker for sealing paint.

Dodo diamond white is also very good wax and it a big pot too.

I`ve just started using it on a couple of cars and am impressed so far, simple to use and leaves a stunning finish on the silver cars and beads are proper mint lol

Ah cool, two kinds promising. How about longevity?

3 coats been on about a month so far and still looking good, cars prewashed using snowfoam and you can see the dirt running down and dripping off the car. Finish hasn`t needed a top up with the gloss spray yet.

Collinite 476s and 845 is about the best 2 waxes out there imo, but they are hybrids ie sealants. If you want to try something new check these guys out wwwpermanon.co.uk/ its easy to use and is the one i use 95% of the time :smiley:
-
Starting to hear a bit about these now, a couple of pro detailiers using them a lot
-
845 insulator wax is AMAZING!! Thanks Guy :cool:

Nice one Chris, im currently using C2 and finding it very impressive, super fast application and beading and sheeting are awesome, will be going for the permanon very soon:)
