I buy most of my detailing stuff from autogeek. You can pick it up from there and don't forget some new microfibers.

Autogeek likely sells its, but just type in "Collinite 845" into the search function on eBay. That's where I got mine. Check for the free shipping too. Mine was $15.95 including shipping, and I am sure that he had many left at that price.

That's great! Please let me know how you like it?
Be sure to let it dry completely to a dry haze. Takes a while, but it's worth it on the removal process.

Yeah. Looking at my Amazon confirmation email I actually paid $19.99 five bucks shipping. Ash hats.

It's great for wheels too.
I used it on my chrome package wheels and it took the winter off of them right quick. Shined them up very nicely!

No worries....as little as you use for each panel, its STILL a great deal....I am thinking that one bottle is going to last me for a couple of years!!!
I've done the Miata that's under the cover in my pics (twice) and the entire truck, doing the hood and front fenders three times......and still have 9/10's of the bottle left.
I even did the top of the truck and the top of the canopy for the first time. I can't wait too see how it beads water, and how long it beads.
Shame on all those professional detailers for keeping this stuff their secret!
