Collinite 845 Consistency

Hey all,
So this may be a dumb question but I can't find an answer for it anywhere.
What should 845 look like coming out of the bottle?

I just opened a bottle I ordered from DD, shook the crap out of it and I have to squeeze it out of the bottle. It is not at all liquid, more of a chunky soft paste.

Any help would be appreciated!

Keep it in a warmer environment. A quick fix would be to run the container under hot water. Shake the hell out of it, it should be a fast-running liquid, although thicker than water.

 

Thanks.

It was in the garage which is kept around 60-70 when I am working in it. Product is stored inside as well. How warm should it be?

I will have to try that out, Thanks for the info!

edit: Okay just ran it under warm water....good call much better! Thanks again!

 

Around the neck/opening gel like substance seems to accumulate, just take your finger or something and wipe it around the opening so it falls into the bottle then shake it for 15-20 sec and it should be all good. Should be a thin-ish liquid once mixed...little bit of gel accumulation around the opening is not going to hurt anything.

 

You better get a coat of winter wax on that G8!!! It's snowing this morning.

 

Keep shaking keep shaking!!!

 

If it interests you or anyone here,

I saw somewhere that a collinite employee said that you can use it while its a paste, or shake it up and use it as a liquid.

i actually tried applying it in its paste form and it seemed easier for me. my applicator pad didnt get saturated like usual (usually if i squeeze it, it will foam up cause of all the liquid in it)

 

when its to warm I think you waste to much a little thick is good.

 

Lol, I got 2 coats of 476 on it about a month ago. I was putting a coat on my brothers extremely nasty blazer.:shakehead:

Apparently car cleanliness does not run in the family.

 

When I got mine it was a very thick paste and it did still work well. I thought it was suppose to be like that until I read the bottle and it says liquid. After some research here, I shook the heck out of it and even placed the bottle in a bucket of warm water and its liquid now.

 

it will get like that from just sitting for a day, so just get in the habit of shaking it reallllllllllly good every time you want to use it.

 

I walk over to the mantle and grab the bottle of 845 and shake it on almost a daily basis. The 3 tubs of Swissvax look at me as if to say, "Hey, what about us"? I tell them, I would pick you guys up too, but I am afraid I might crack your lids..
