I hate winter time with sand and salt all over the car and I don't have a garage....not forgetting snow storms and -20o F temperature.

| Re: Question about collinite 845
ive read about alot of sucess topping WG with a variety of products nubas and the like, and many report great results with the collonite.
i was planning the 2 coats of WG and topped with collonite on my truck for my winter clean up, but i just ordered some Opti Coat...never tried it...so fingers crossed. Quote:

Just apply them to your car, and then do as little as you can detailing wise to it in the next 4-8months. 
The key to surviving winter is to embrace it.

Do I have to go back to square one and wash, polish, seal, and wax?

It lasts for months. I see absolutely no need for a dedicated wheel sealant. 845 or 476 definitely rocks for wheels!

Bill | I have to agree both my vehicles get 845 on the paint and the wheels. It does s great job. I will second the part of not seeing a point for wheel sealant.

Bill | I usually just wax or seal my wheels with whatever I put on the paint, and I was just curious if 845 does any better of a job than say wgdgps. From what I'm hearing the wheels will be getting a coat or two on all the cars

I'm going to try to wash them off this weekend. I really hate the idea of doing a strong wash and starting the whole process over again. In fact, if I do that much work and still get water spots that easy, I may just give up...

I had the same type of thing happened when I tried to put Zaino Z-2/Z-5 on top of Prima Amigo. This was way back when Amigo just came out. The first time the car got wet I had white spots everywhere that I couldn't remove with shampoo or QD. It looked like dried wax around the edges (circumference) of the spots. Ended up spraying each panel with Prep-All panel wipe, then started over again.
I've heard others having good luck putting Zaino on top of Amigo since then so maybe something in Amigo has changed since then
