collinite insulator wax?

[mhgrey150]

I am new to this forum so bare with me. I purchased a new 2013 grey sterling metallic ford f-150 and was wondering if this wax would do good for this color? Thought about trying #476 or #915 but prefer liquid (845). Also can you top collinite with another wax for more pop in shine and if so what would you guys suggest?

Start off with 1-2 layers of 845 (preferably 2). At that point, you have what you have and can then determine if more is needed in terms of pop. For durability you are probably for at least 90-days; assuming you use the F150 for hauling.

If you want more pop, then 915 would do it for sure, with less durability than 845.

If you want more durability then 476 would do it, with less gloss/pop from either of the above.

My go-to topper is Optimum Spray Wax.

Thank you so much for that info! That is a big help and will try that for sure. Hopefully will be able to have some pics after I get done. Thanks again!

Great suggestion!!

I have used C845 on my silver car, it does an amazing job. I usually apply 2 layers and then top it with carnauba wax.

Yes, 845 is good stuff! You can't go wrong!

On their web site they list durability #1 476 #2 915 #3 845 (under Faq's)

The only thing I would top Collinite with is more Collinite.

That is sharp tpr1634!

I used 476 thru the winter with great results. The roof still beads 8 mths later. I say run 476 on the roof because you don't see it really and you get superior protection... Plus you don't need pop up there. You need protection, IMO

Top it with another coat of the 845, let cure than hit it with some Duragloss Auqawax , .Bam, big time shine with lots of protection:

I emailed colly today and they said 2-24hrs wait on the second coat application
