Collinite 845 consistency

**kh765** · 03-13-2008, 07:54 PM

I just wanted to know what kind of consistency Collinite 845 is supposed to have. I got my bottle today and opened it to find it to be almost like water. By the end of the day, it had turned into a thick paste that won`t pour out even when the bottle is upside down. I have to squeeze the bottle if I want to get anything out.

The best way I can tell you is...SHAKE, SHAKE AND MORE SHAKE. The more you shake it the easier it will be to get it out of the bottle.

I guess I`m gonna try some shaking.

Thanks guys

you can always put it in some warm water for 10-15 minutes to help thin it out...

I fill a cup with warm-hot water and turn it upside down and stick it in that and it melts very quickly. I don`t even have to wait 5 minutes. And then I shake it up, pour what I need onto the pad, and stick it back in the cup. Then I apply via PC and whenever I need more, it`s still thin because I left it in the warm water.

Shaking worked really well. If it thickens up again, I`ll try the hot water trick.

Ditto that.

haha welcome to 845! Let`s see what`s the best way to put it. Oh yeah - you need to shake the sh!t out of it.

It`s consistency is great as it spreads easily and goes a LONG way. :woot:

I start shaking it up 2 days before I use it but that is me

It wont thicken up again (according to my experience)

Yeah, getting 845 ready to apply can be a PITA. When it`s cooler out, I do the warm water trick someone mentioned above, then once it`s warm, just shake the heck outta it!

Yep, I do the same thing and it is worth the extra couple minutes getting it ready.
