    Collinite 885 Fleetwax / 476S

    Just got some Collinite 885 Fleetwax paste yesterday , applied it today..Very nice, I pictured the wax as being thick and hard to work with, quite the opposite.

    I used a yellow sponge foam applicator, the wax seemed to melt quite easily and actually spread effortlessly...which was totally unexpected...

    I used some of my new Cobra jr MF's to buff it off and it had a nice warm reflections to it and felt very slick to the touch...

    Now, I just need to see how it holds up for me..but, so far quite happy with it.

    While I hate to read in between the lines, a recent poll by Meghan suggests we are comtemplating adding the line. As such, we would love for you to keep us informed of your thoughts, and durability during the coming weeks.

    What did you think of its look ?? Wetness ?? Depth ??

    That would be great if AG had Collinite!!

    I was applying it while the sun was going down, so it was hard for me to judge it's wetness and depth..

    With the exterior lighting on my home it appeared to have high gloss and a warm glow to it and felt very slick to the touch..It's raining now and might snow tomorrow..

    I try and get some photos up when the weather improves.

    I used collinite x3 last winter over the klasse Twins....and it held up great thru the New England winter....I applied it in Nov..and in April it was still beading fine...

    I would use the wand wash when needed...I would mix up some car wash and water in a spray bottle 32oz....spray the truck down...let sit a few and use rinse water to remove....the soap in the car wash is very harsh...

    truck came clean always...some grime remained but expected...just wanted salt and road sand removed...

    Truck always shines after a wash and beaded great...

    So you should be happy with it in Colorado...

    I just used the 845, and will be curious to find out how good the protection is in Michigan winter.

    I'm thinking about using my Collinite for the brutal South FL winters here, should get me through. Tell you what, their damn wax line will outlast most any sealant. It even last well on our waverunners even after using them.
