I then applied Collinite 845, to give its longevity a test in the Australian summer, I'm amazed at how far Collinite spreads, I've done at least 4 coatings with it, and I've used barely an inch at the top of the bottle.
I've given up on de-browning the tyres, so I just coated them with Autoglym Instant Tyre Dressing.
Finally, I gave the glass a wipe down with Angelwax Vision.

What pad with the S30+? I love this polish but don’t see it mentioned much around here.
Nice car!

Thanks, it's not bad for a 10 year old car 205000 km on it. Up close there's some imperfections, but you have to be real close. The pad I used was a 6" shinemate black diamond yellow medium cut, but with a very light touch. I noticed I didn't include a photo of the hood, here it is, this is with the Collinite on it as well.

Every car has some sort of imperfection up close. I know the Shinemate pad you are talking about. Based on that polish and that pad I can guess which detail store you bought it from here in Aus! I use the S30 with the Lake Country SDO orange and black pads and find that combo works good too.

If it's the store that starts with W - I'm basically funding their retirement funds!

Haha yep! As am I. I think I make an order every 2 weeks these days. Buying enough to get free shipping gets me every time!

It’s a shame this product has such average hydrophobic behavior because I love the look it gives and how easy it is to apply.
The rain is what interfered with the bonding of hyper seal. When I used it, it was pretty hydrophobic. It does leave a nice look.

Do you think because it was on a coating though it looked better than it really is? Optimum claims it can get wet right away but I'm not sure I believe that. It looked much more hydrophobic in your video.
