Collinite makes good products.If you call them for info you will probably have the owner(no robot) pick up the phone.I use the Insulator wax and the #915,Marque D'Elegance paste wax on my cars.I am an obsessive detailer so I try lots of stuff.
The liquid should be warmed in water prior to using.

Great stuff...been using Collinite 845 for years. It works well on aluminum wheels, too. I wax all the metal on the bike with it...except the exhaust. I doubt ANY wax lasts more than a few minutes on a 300 degree muffler.
My only complaint has been the cap on the bottle. On all the bottles I've owned, I've never had one with a cap that would screw on tight. Not a big deal until you decide to shake the dickens out of it before use and the dang lid comes off. That stuff goes everywhere when that happens.
Buddy of mine had his bike over to my shop and he asked to use my Collinite. He gave it a couple good shakes, the lid popped off and he splorked a good 25% of a bottle of wax all over my tool box. He felt bad, so he bought a brandy-gnu bottle of it for me.

I just got done doing my 2010 ultra I used meguires gold for the painted stuff and regular old chrome polish on the shiny stuff. Just got done doing a trans rebuild so I had plenty of paw prints. I usually do that once in the spring than quick shine after that.
