In regard to application method, I like to do the whole car then remove afterwards. I find this is the fastest way to do it and give maximum time for the wax to haze.

I was really sceptical about this wax after reading you had to warm it up before use, but in reality it's very easy. I put the bottle in hot water before I start washing the car. By the time I am done with the wash the wax is ready to go so there is no wasted time.

Glad you changed your mind about #845 and yeah, the warming it up method is no biggie for sure. That said, if its warm out while your washing your car and you plan to apply a coat, just leave it out in the sun and by the time your done washing your car the #845 will be ready to go. I also couldn't agree with you more about applying it to the entire car AND THEN removing, I've always done it this way, as a matter of fact, after experimenting with all the Collinite products, I do this with all of them:props:

Depending on the time of year, you don't even need to sit it in hot water. If the temps are 70-ish F and sunny or warmer, you can place it in direct sunlight and get the same results. Think of it as a detailer's version of sun tea!

Well first of all they are in hard form but application is just as easy as #845. #915 is awesome on dark cars and leaves behind an incredible shine, durability is still very good as well. #476 is what a lot people use to get their cars through the winter as the durability is legendary. One thing I'll say about #476 is this, when I applied it to my car it DID NOT reduce the shine I had already achieved on my old car, so its also a nice lookin' wax too! If you can buy both, do it but if you have to chose between the 2 I guess it depends on what your using it on and what your needs are. Oh yeah, BTW, I applied both of these waxes to my entire car AND THEN removed without any issues. You'll read to do one panel at a time, I think it may even say that on the container but I can tell you I've applied it this way with NO issues.

Collinite makes an awesome product for NOT a lot of money! You can buy "The Triplets" for under what you'd pay for 1 boutique wax, LOL! IMO the #915 IS a boutique wax, its really THAT good lookin'!

Thanks for the tips :idea::dblthumb2:
i heard 915 contains more carnauba and it can really make black paint pop :awesome:
agreed it's non expensive wax and feels like lubricating oil when apply and remove :laughing:
