| Collinite 845 question
Is there any specific amount of time to wait in between coats of 845? It's not a sealant so I assumed there isn't, but just wanna make sure. I apply one coat, wait 30 seconds to a minute, then buff off. Can I go right to a second coat as soon as the first is buffed?

I have done back to back coats and also waited 24 hrs. I personally can't tell a difference for longevity wise. The reason for waiting is to let the solvents evaporate out of the first coat. I don't know if they need to or not. So most of the time I marathon wax it back to back with no wait time. I wax each section and remove each section till the entire car is done, then repeat for second coat. So my wait time is approx 30min-60min between coats.

The Collinite book says 8-12 hours of cure time.
