COLLINITE 845 Insulator Wax — 16 fl oz Carnauba+Polymer Liquid Wax for High Gloss, Durable Hydrophobic Protection

Collinite No. 845 Insulator Wax is a hybrid carnauba-and-polymer liquid wax that delivers deep gloss, durable hydrophobic protection and months-long paint defense for cars, boats, trucks, RVs and motorcycles.

Designed as a modern evolution of a long-standing formula, No. 845 blends premium carnauba wax with heavy-duty polymers to create a finish that looks warm and reflective while resisting water and environmental contaminants. It’s supplied in a 16 fl oz bottle suitable for multiple applications on finished automotive paint, gelcoat and metal surfaces when applied correctly. The product is well-suited to enthusiasts who want showroom shine without committing to permanent coatings.

How does Collinite 845 improve appearance and shine?

No. 845 uses high-grade carnauba wax to enhance color depth and surface warmth, producing a glossy, radiant finish. The result is a visibly richer paint surface without filling or heavy silicones, while the polymer fraction boosts reflectivity and clarity.

• Contains premium #1 carnauba wax for natural gloss and depth.
• Polymers amplify surface reflectivity and long-term sheen.
• Gives a warm, non-plastic appearance on both light and dark colors.

How long does the protection last and what kind of resistance does it offer?

The polymer content in this formula provides extended durability compared with traditional paste waxes, commonly lasting several months under normal driving conditions. It helps shed water and reduces surface adhesion of dirt, offering hydrophobic beading and basic UV resistance without needing ceramic-level installation procedures.

• Durable polymers designed to sustain protection for months between applications.
• Hydrophobic beading helps water run off and eases washing.
• Provides surface UV and heat resistance that helps maintain finish life.

What surfaces and vehicles can I use No. 845 on?

This liquid wax is formulated for painted automotive finishes and works well on gelcoat and metal trim when used as directed. It’s commonly applied to cars, motorcycles, boats, trucks and RVs, but should be avoided on unpainted plastics, rubber or vinyl without testing first.

• Safe for single-stage and clearcoat automotive paints.
• Works on marine gelcoat and polished metal surfaces.
• Test small areas before using on matte or sensitive surfaces.

How do I apply and maintain Collinite 845 for best results?

Apply to a cool, clean surface out of direct sunlight using a soft applicator pad, allow a brief haze if necessary, then remove with a microfiber towel to reveal gloss. Routine maintenance washes and periodic reapplication restore the hydrophobic finish and preserve depth of shine.

• Wash and dry vehicle before application for optimal adhesion.
• Use light, even passes with an applicator; buff with microfiber cloths.
• Reapply every few months depending on exposure and use.

Who is this for: Collinite No. 845 Insulator Wax suits car and boat owners who want a simple, low-effort way to achieve a warm, high-gloss finish combined with longer-lasting protection than traditional waxes. It’s especially useful for DIY detailers who prefer periodic reapplication over permanent coatings, owners of classic cars seeking authentic carnauba depth, and anyone looking to enhance paint appearance while adding practical hydrophobic performance for everyday use.
