    Collinite 845 Spray Wax...

    The consistency of my 845 is very thin. I decided to drop a sprayer in it. It sprays fine. Makes it even easier to use. Has anyone else tried this? Will the sprayer hold up or will it cake shut?

    Since we will be seeing 845 in many posts...

    I figured I throw this one out there to those who haven't been down this road yet. The bottle is a pain to work with. I'd gladly pay the extra 50 cents for them to throw on a flip top cap. Since that wont happen, use a flip top cap from another product. I found that the Poorboy's flip top...

    Effects of condensation on sealants?

    I hear numbers of anywhere from 8 to 24 hours for a sealant to cure. During this time rain is the enemy. I live in the NE US. The nights are getting cooler. Each night condensation forms on my car. I am assuming this condensation has a negative effect on the sealants ability to cure. Am I...

    Topping sealants

    From what I have read liquid waxes have "solvents" in them that help keep them liquid. Do these solvents have an effect on durability of a sealant when used as a topper? For example: If I top Wolfgang Deep Gloss Paint Sealant with Liquid Souveran, would it effect the durability of the WDGPS?

    Addiction?

    I bought a car July 3 (2007 Impreza). This is the first time in my life (35 yrs old) that I bought a car that I actually like, not just looked for a good deal. I never liked my previous cars so I have never taken very good care of them. To give you some idea, my last car was a Pontiac Aztek...
