    Well... at least you’ll have someone to blame it on.

    Me too. In a decade or two I will have used up this tin and have to blame him again.

    Now at least I know I`m not alone. Maybe we should form a club. But it works so well - no regrets either.

    Re: Accumulator Made Me Do It

    Heh heh, FK oughta pay me a commission!

    Nice to hear some are finding my advice at least worthy of some consideration. Lots of different subjective factors with LSPs, and I don`t expect people to try something different just because a semi-anonymous guy on the internet says it`s All That.

    Hope it works as well for everybody else as it does for me. YMMV of course, and a few here haven`t been happy with it.

    In AZ, a member has had Collinite 476S outlast it, completely opposite from my experience.. I can`t begin to explain that one.

    Finick got a tin that never really flashes off/dries to the point of passing the finger-swipe test. I encouraged him to contact FK about it, but haven`t heard back about how that turned out.

    SOMEBODY here won`t like how it looks (I didn`t think I`d like it at all on a few paints), but no specific criticisms come to mind and one could always top it (FK sells their Pink Wax for that specific purpose, as if they recognize this issue).

    I just re-FK1000P`ed the `93 Audi after about 15 months, did the Tahoe back in March after 16. The Audi was still beading/etc. fine but I like to stay ahead of the curve, especially on that car with its fragile compromised paint. No real prep, just a regular wash and then hours of carefully rewaxing it over the course of a few days. (I do use 845 for a few areas that`re too far gone for the FK.)

    And just think, my original sample tin sat on the shelf for *years*, just drying out, while I dismissively thought "I have perfectly good LSPs already and I like `em, no need to try some "High Temperature Wax" that nobody`s ever heard of and the maker suggests topping.." Now it`s on half our vehicles and I`ll probably put it on the others too. Well, maybe not the Jag...

    Re: Accumulator Made Me Do It

    Wonder how many here *have* bought some based on my recommendation.

    Even more curious about people who`ve discovered/tried it on their own.

    And I`m truly serious about wanting to know about any negative takes on the stuff.

    Don`t wait so long that it dries out into a rock and needs revitalized with FK425 the way Yours Truly did. It`s a *LOT* better, and infinitely easier, when it`s not dried out.

    Re: Accumulator Made Me Do It

    Sir Accumulator forgot to mention he’s the biggest stockholder in the company �� LoL I am one of those who bought some per Accumulators recommendations. Put some on the 17 White Highlander about a month ago and the next washing will put another coat on. Too early to tell about longevity but I like the way it looks and feels.
