Re: Collinite 845, not as long lasting as it's claimed?

I've just figured that out myself. I had tried 845 over various polishes,but it didn't last nearly as long as it should IMO.

I put a coat on in early March,and it was totally gone by the end of June. I applied a coat of 845 on top of the paint without any kind of polish on it. We had a lot of rain shortly thereafter,and then I had tons of tiny little beads. I added a 2nd coat last weekend so I should be set for quite sometime.

BTW,I've never seen beads that small and tight. I've never seen beads fly off a windshield like they have done with the last two coats of 845.
