[QUOTE="*Jay*, post: 16558680, member: 108453"] I have been trying to find a replacement for Collonite 845 for many, many years and havent been able to. Its not that I dont like the stuff I just cant believe that given its age nothing short of a full ceramic coat can touch it. It really is amazing stuff, easy to use, extremely durable, looks great on paint, can be used on plastic/glass and easily lasts for 6 months. I just keep it topped with some kind of a drying aide LSP, currently thats TW Hybrid Ceramic Wet Wax and its been chugging on just fine with the NE Ohio winter. Like you I enjoy detailing my cars and dont mind waxing a few times a year. I had a ceramic coat done on my SB Cobra and while its great I think I enjoy the paint correction more than the coat. Plus if anything goes wrong with the ceramic coat (shopping cart, asshole in parking lot) you cant just remove it with Dawn dish soap and recoat. You need a DA polisher at the minimum to remove it. Then if its not a consumer grade coat you have to go back to the vendor to do all of that work and hopefully not pay again to get it fixxed. If I had to do it all over again I would have just stuck with the paint correction and skipped the ceramic coat. [/QUOTE]
