After the process to get it to liquid form..
Does it revert back to the clump?

Yes it probaby will. I have several bottles and some are clumped and some are liquid. The best way I've found is to heat it up and shake and then shake some more and then shake some more. Wonderful wax none the less.

x2 what van said. It depends on ambient temperature. From my experience, as it cools, it clumps. Warm it up, shake it and you are good to go.
 
Yep, once it re-cools it goes back to being clumpy. Just reheat it in the sun or a sink bath of hot water. Just remember to shake it multiple times when you are reliquifying it. I put a few ounces in a Megs clean top applicator bottle. That way I am only heating up a few ounces at a time and not heating and cooling the entire bottle over and over.
 
Can I just use this as my LSP only? Thanks in advance.
 
You have a couple of options to get it more of a liquid
wack it on a good table and shake it
leave the wax in the bottle and put it in a bucket with hot water
 
Mine stay in liquid form after. It might look like its solid but with one shake it turn into liquid.
 
Been using it for quite some time, very good beading properties and it lasted for months (as long as you have prep your paint).
 
I have just placed the bottle in the sun while I was washing the car, that usually got it to a perfect liquid consistency. It does leave a nice shine, so no reason to top it. Its durability is excellent. I have used it on wheels as well. Just apply it very thin, it does not like being over applied.

It may depend on the ambient temperature, but I found when leaving it in the sun this weekend I was still left with really small chunks I could see on the buffer pad. I had to give it a hard shake for about 30 seconds in order to minimize the chunk size. At the time the temp was around 70F.

I've learned that the hard way....used GG6 to apply and over did it..

Better to apply quickly by hand..


I've learned that I over apply waxes when I get home at 1am and park my car under a street light ...I then see cloudyness spots on my hood..I guess the heat from the engine brings it out more pronounced.

845 is a pleasure to work with in the summer months. Not so much the colder months though. Last car I applied it to I had a hell of a time with it, the car was black however.
 
Well....

I just couldn't sit here thinking that I messed it up..



So,

I washed it down with ONR

Then I pulled out my GG6 ,white pad,and M205 ..and stripped the hood...

Reapplied WG Deep Gloss Liquid Seal

waited 2 hours

Redid the 845

Let's wait and see

PS-

What I did notice is that after I did the 20 minute hot water thingy
The 845 seemed more watery than yesterday
or is it my imagination :confused:
