WHICH PRODUCT IS RECOMMENDED TO PRESERVE AND MAINTAIN A COAT OF 845?
Collinite No. 520 Mister Collins Auto Detailer gently cleans the surface while enhancing the existing wax finish. It is also infused or “insulated” with Collinite Wax protection in order to bond effectively to the wax coat. Collinite 845 can also be layered over itself if additional protection and shine are desired.
CAN 845 INSULATOR WAX BE APPLIED OVER EXISTING CERAMIC COATINGS AND PAINT PROTECTION FILM (PPF)?
Ceramic Coatings: Many professional detailers are successfully using 845 Insulator Wax as a topper for ceramic coatings. Check with the coating manufacturer whether a carnauba-polymer wax is suitable over the coating. Paint Protection Film (PPF): 845 Insulator Wax was tested successfully by the tech department at XPEL PPF.
CAN 845 BE USED EFFECTIVELY IN ITS THINNER LIQUID FORM AND ITS THICKER GEL FORM?
845 will take on a thicker gel consistency in colder temperatures and a thinner liquid consistency in warmer temperatures. The different viscosities do not alter the performance. It can be used in either form.
CAN 845 BE USED BY HAND AND WITH A DA POLISHER?
Yes. Collinite 845 Insulator Wax is Collinite’s most “machine friendly” automotive wax. A finishing pad and low speed are optimal in order to obtain professional results. By hand, a thin layer is recommended to one section at a time. With DA and by hand, microfiber towels are recommended for removal. For one midsized vehicle, 2-3 towels are suggested.
CAN 845 INSULATOR WAX BE LAYERED?
Yes. Wait a minimum of 12 hours between coats to allow the product to fully cure.
