Because my wife lent out my spot in the garage to our neighbor to store some things for a month, I've had to park my car outside near trees. Since it was polished and waxed with Collinite a month ago, I didn't worry about it. And after a full wash and inspection yesterday followed by Megs...

Right. I mixed up this test with the 42 way comparison that lasted some 2 years. Meguiars was the only retail spray wax that did well over a year there, beating out highly rated waxes, sealants, and some ceramic coatings.

My fault, my bad. Although 3 in 1 has been out just over a year, I mixed up 2 different tests in my mind. Upon reviewing them, I saw that only Megs HCW was in the 2 year test. Griot's is doing well currently in a new test that's gone about half a year only. I stand corrected. Thanks.

Granted, but better a test I can see than all the endorsements by professionals and amateurs based on vague comparisons I can neither see, nor verify on the forum. Especially when touting high priced brands.

Griot's did last quite a long time (in one case over 1.5 years) on a youtube comparison I've seen. I think 3 in 1 and Megs HCW lasted longer than lots of ceramic coatings even. Perhaps a fluke, but their strong performance -- at least half a year and often well over a year in various tests on...

Not showing up for me.

Got a case of supermarket rash from someone who scratched my car while it was parked in an open space surrounded by two free spaces. I know I'm venting but it seems that taking care of my paint can't keep up with those who seem to want to destroy it. I was able to minimize the effects of the...

People have said that removing some coatings is a potential problem.

I've been using and applying Collinite 845 twice a year on my basic gray Honda. I like shiny paint and I like to rinse my car and wipe it with detailer regularly. I've also been experimenting with Meguiars Hybrid Ceramic Wax Spray on my wife's car. My car is mostly garaged and is used only a...

Thanks for the comments. As I mentioned I have HCW as my first spray on, rinse off sealant (except for first application which is done with a damp towel). I have had lots of experiences since 2000 using Collinite and already knew it has at least half year longevity for cars that spend at least...

I was heavily into detailing 15-20 years ago but mostly had no time for it in the recent past. I decided to start again -- at least on an occasional basis two weeks ago. I used the old stuff I had on hand to polish and wax my daily driver which has become a garage queen as I mostly work at...

Thank you for your help!

I haven't used any product in years as I stopped having the time for detailing. However, I recently decided to get back into doing our cars, at least on an every few month basis instead of weekly as I used to. I successfully compounded and buffed out some scuffs and scratches my teenager had...

Any of you here also registered on Autopia.org? I have not been into detailing for many years but have just gotten back into it. I signed back onto Autogeekline and managed to get a new password. I'm also trying to get back my other registrations. But with Autopia.org, I've gotten zilch. I...

Still use mine after ~20 years. But granted, I'm not a weekend warrior, just an occasional amateur.
