New Collinite quick detailer

[Klasse Act]

520 may be more of a cleaner than a protectant. Kind of the opposite of today’s popular QDs (BSD for instance). For this reason it seems people are having trouble finding a great use for it since we all use WWs like it pours from the sky.

I’m a huge Collinite fan and was hoping this would be a purdy, couple week protection QD at minimum. But I still love you Collinite (Go UTICA!!!)

We all use WW's like it "pouring from the sky" because especially when bought in gallon size have enough to make our own "QD" so cheaply that it just doesn't make sense or cents to buy a designated QD but if you want to do this, it is still America, even California

Yeah, yeah...... But some people (Ahem) are brand addicts.

Thanks guys! That kinda sucks to hear... It would be neat if it was something like a watered down wax ( bad choice of words.... ) like Optimum spray wax.

Ill post my pics this time tomorrow.

If it doesn't meet my standards, lesson learned.

Wouldn't be the first time. Lol

To those that are using water-beading to
determine if a QD leaves behind some
level of protection, or not: Please explain.

TIA.

I’ll combine lack of water beading plus multiple observations of no added shine being noticed to come to the conclusion that this does not offer decent protection and/or the type of protection I am looking for given it:
1) Doesn’t appear to inhibit any type of water behavior and therefore the benefits (self-cleaning, good looks during rain)
2) Doesn’t add any noticeable gloss

Therefore, I will draw upon my own experiences and desires to determine that this is not what I was hoping it was and will pass on this one product for my own personal use.

Ok, so these are the pics from this morning. Taken as it just started raining.

You can clearly see where the 520 has changed the tight beading.
(I applied this to the first 16-18” of the entire front of the hood).


This pic is from about 3:00 after it had been pouring most of the day.

Looks like the beading has returned.

Did the 520 wash away? Did it “normalize” itself into the 476?

Not sure.

This picture tells the story, period! I guess my questions are, who in the hell did the beta testing and were we expecting too much from this product because its from one of the most underrated brands out there???

Yeah, I'm kinda bummed Rog. All arguments over beading/sheeting etc. aside, I really LIKE my beading! Lol

Well I agree but the thing about this picture is it really does show what it did to what you had on the vehicle already.
