What kind of paint condition are we talking about? Is the car new or 10 years old? Sent from my XT1053 using Tapatalk

As stated above this is normal. Sit in sun or hot water. FYI - one tip I use also is to drop a marble in the bottle. This helps break up any small clumps as you shake the bottle. Enjoy the 845!

OK your confusing me. If you are applying 845 you WANT to strip all previous waxes first. Meaning you would use Dawn soap. (even after washing with Dawn some people then clean the car again with a pre wax cleaner... then clay bar, etc) As with anything. It's all in the prep. Don't skip or...

This could be the culprit. Are you not using a soap to strip previous products before applying the 845? Sent from my XT1053 using Tapatalk

I use 845 on two daily drivers that are not garaged. Outside 365 a year, and through Pennsylvania winters. Mine still beads when I go to apply again. I don't know that California UV rays and Pennsylvania UV rays would be that much different. Definitely strange. Sent from my XT1053 using...

OK here's the link to the 845 guide I mentioned above. http://www.autogeekonline.net/forum/showthread.php?t=40243 Sent from my XT1053 using Tapatalk

You should see at least 5-6 months with properly applied 845. There is something flawed in your detail process and/or application of 845. Search the forum for "the definitive guide to Collinite 845" . That's a good place to start. I'd link it but I'm at work on the tapatalk app. Sent...

OK thanks for the input. I don't think I would need anything other than soap and water anyway. I really just wanted to use it for the tires and was worried about it getting on the rims a little. Sent from my XT1053 using Tapatalk

Ok so a little more info as I'm still wondering... If I am using LA's Totally Awesome cleaner it states on the label that "wax stripping" is 5:1 So if I made a 10:1 mix would it not be okay to use on rims w/ sealant on w/o worrying about it being stripped? Thanks

Hair dryer to heat. Plastic razor blades to remove. Goo gone for leftover residue. Sent from my XT1053 using Tapatalk

If I want to use a 4:1 APC to clean my tires and rims would it remove any sealant/wax I have applied to the rims? Thanks. Sent from my XT1053 using Tapatalk

Let's refrain from starting another this is better than that thread. Just suggest a product and leave it at that. Sent from my XT1053 using Tapatalk

I second the products by Collinite. Can't go wrong.

If one were to use this wolfgang trim product could I then top it with my normal wax/sealant? Sent from my XT1053 using Tapatalk

This. I bought a 20 pack on eBay for $1.99.....

OK thanks for the info. My guard was certainly tight. And it didn't sit at the bottom either. Only went down about 2/3's of the way. I guess I'll try one of the Home Depot food grade ones. Sent from my XT1053 using AG Online

Yea I've had neighbors complement my car when I'm on the clay stage of a detail. I'm thinking to myself, I still have like 4 hours to go....lol

I've had these buckets for 2 years. I only have a grit guard in the rinse bucket. Today I went to detail the car and the rinse bucket was cracked. It couldn't have been damaged in the garage. It literally sits untouched when I'm not using them. The bucket has a sort of bulged ring right about...

I use Collinite 845 for my daily driver in PA winters. Works like a charm.

I prefer the app Waze (owned by Google btw) as Capn Blackie already listed. It gives you all the convenience of navigation in addition to "real time" updates via Waze users regarding traffic, construction, police (nice), hazards on the road, vehicles stopped on shoulder, gas prices, etc, etc...
