Are boat products different than automotive stuff?
I know Collinite relabel their durable waxes like 476 also in the boaters world, under different numbers. And there are some paint safe boat sealants make me think if they could also be applied on a car for the ultimate durability.
So do they really differ, and what should we be aware of if we have a great urge to try a boat wax/sealant on a car, or the other way around?

Re: Are boat products different than automotive stuff?
Great question and one that I often wonder. Currently I use Duragloss 501 as my sealant and it is manufactured specifically for boats. There are a lot of people who use this product on their vehicles with no ill effects.

Re: Are boat products different than automotive stuff?
Just an example of a "no difference", except for price:
Per Collinite Products MSDS's:
845=925
915=915
870=ss126
840=920
73ss=146MW
476S=885=900=S238
855=855
850=850
You'll probably find similar examples do exist from a variety of others that offer car-care/marine-care product lines as well.

Re: Are boat products different than automotive stuff?
Thanks for the replies.
I know, I've met some questions on the same topic before, but many were asking if their car wax would work on their boat. I found a test on boat sealants and some sealants really were said to have good self cleaning abilities lasting almost a year. Most of these long term durability sealants had, PTFE, PTEF, Teflon as an additive or main element and I wondered how they differed to our car sealants those could only last 4-5 months at most. Even Zaino dropped halfway in the test.
Will definitely try one of these 12 mo durable sealants on my car but with the remarks given, I guess I'll need to take caution on its not having any abrasives.
