I'm kinda torn between which I would like to get for a summer wax. I've narrowed it down to collinite 915, blackfire midnight sun, or chemical guys 5050. I would be using it on my black metallic ford fusion, which is my daily driver and sees about 350 miles a week. Ive heard great things about all 3 of these waxes, and would rly appreciate some input from people who have used them. Price isn't an obstacle, and I wax my car about once a month, so durability isn't a huge issue either. Thanks for any feedback!
 
I use Ibiz which can go as expensive as 18 dollars a bottle or meguiars pro line which is also very good. Depends mostly on preference and what your looking to achieve
 
Ive used megs 26, which looked beautiful, but wanted to try something else
 
For looks alone I would go with 5050. But I think Pete's looks even better.
 
Collinite products are under-rated although it sounds like Midnight Sun is awesome on black. Can't beat Collinite for the price point.
 
I actually have and use colli 845. Im looking for something new with bit deeper of a shine. dont get me wrong tho, it is a great wax.
 
I would not get #915 for a summer wax. It lasts long but P21S looks better IMHO
 
Small Jar of the Midnight Sun and you can wax it once a week all summer long and never run out.
 
For both looks and durability of the three you've chosen I'd opt for Collinite 915...

Collinite 845 is a bit more application friendly so if you haven't pulled the trigger yet perhaps consider it...:props:

Are you applying it by hand or with a dual action polisher?
 
I dont have a DA polisher, or the means to use one (such as a garage or power outlet nearby) so I do all my work by hand. Thanks for the feedback!

No problem at all!

The reason I ask is Collinite 845 should be laid down thin and when using a dual action polisher this is a no-brainer. When Applying by hand make sure it goes on very thin, otherwise it can become somewhat difficult to remove....:props:
