Vid: Collinite 885 at almost 5 months

Just thought I'd share this vid. I've taken care of this SUV for a while now. Last full detail is running up on 5 months now.
Wax of choice was Collinite #885, which is my go to wax as of now.

I do a wash and vac every 2-3 weeks. Today, I set her up for a wash and wax, so it can have some protection for the winter coming up. (winter in Texas....hahahah)

Here is what it looked like while washing.... This is almost 5 months...

I wanted to enter pics of the SUV in the show and shine contest, but I figured it wasn't fair, since I already won a while back...

That made a believer out me. In fact I'm heading for the Collinite page now.

Maybe that is a better option than the Meg's #16 I have been using the last several years.

I have always referred Collinite waxes...especially the pastes..I use 915 and 885 as my toppers and 845 as a wheel wax ..845IW is a nice summer wax and can be used as a winter topper also..but the pastes are king for durability...105 topped with either 885 or 915 is the best winter topper I have used next to Klasse Twins topped with Collinite...

Collinite will get you thru the winter no problem..

Nice Video Tex....I always told you about Collinite....

I have 915 and 845, still have no idea how the heck they outlast basically every sealant, and they look good to boot. Pretty much the perfect wax in a way, you get the carnauba look, but durability that outlast most any sealant.

Very nice beads, if I ever run out of #16 I'll try these waxes.
