Collinite

No. 845 Insulator Wax

Liquid carnauba-polymer waxGood first choice

A durable traditional wax known for strong protection per dollar, but bottle temperature and very thin application affect usability.

The chemistry

Carnauba and synthetic resins leave a sacrificial hydrophobic film after carrier solvents evaporate and the residue is buffed.

Use it when

  • Seasonal paint protection
  • Owners who prefer traditional wax application
  • Durability matters more than instant spray convenience

Compatible surfaces

  • Clean gloss paint
  • Compatible clear-coated metal
  • Prepared exterior finishes approved by Collinite

Avoid or verify first

  • Matte paint and textured trim
  • Thick coats that become difficult to remove
  • Applying over contamination or polishing oils

How to use No. 845 Insulator Wax safely

  1. 1Clean and fully prepare the surface according to the protection system's instructions.
  2. 2Apply a thin, even layer in controlled conditions and level or buff it within the specified working window.
  3. 3Keep the surface dry and avoid detergents for the stated cure period, then maintain it with compatible products.
