my bottle is VERY water liquid instead of when i first got it, it was more of a paste liquid (thick) did it go bad on me? I live in florida and it does get hot.
 
you want it like milk. I have to put mine in a warm water bath to get it like you are getting it off your shelf

i hate you
 
Every time you use it, shake it up "a lot". This makes it "thin".
I live on So. Fl. also and you need to shake it until it's like milk.
 
ive shook it so much my body is vibrating haha. its very thin still. I guess thats just the way it is ? im just use to it being thicker!
 
When it cools, the wax coagulates into a somewhat of a paste. I always place mine in a cup of warm water and then shaky it until it's a watery consistency.
 
when i got mine it was pretty thick. all i did was shake it well and it turned thin, and im here in wisconsin still hitting 20-30 degrees for lows.

Well there ya go, I told you this would happen is you moved there!! :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:

Collinite 845 is a bit particular when it comes to working temperatures. If it's too think, place it in hot water then shake until it's the right consistency. If it's too thin, place it in cold water then shake until it's the right consistency. :dblthumb2:
 
I live about 15 min from the Col factory, they said the separation is normal

I don't think it can be too thin.
 
I wonder what it would take to get a rep. from Collinite to join AG-forum.

Probably not but when it becomes watery I tend to apply too much to the pad as it's absorbed in the foam. I've done this several times and as long as I'm aware of it I'll just work it further to achieve the proper film thickness..

I use a LC 4" red pad and when it loads up I just stop adding any product and keep going. I haven't tried this yet but I have to believe that a crimson hydro pad would really work well since they are suppose to be less absorbent.
