Common Concerns Answered
Is Collinite 920 difficult to apply?
Application requires some physical effort, particularly when applied by hand. Machine application using a dual-action or rotary buffer is more efficient but necessitates basic operational knowledge. Proper technique and avoiding product drying on the surface are key to optimal results.
Can Collinite 920 fix deep scratches?
Collinite 920 is designed to remove mild to moderate oxidation, chalkiness, and stains, not deep scratches. For significant surface imperfections, a more aggressive compound may be required prior to using this cleaner.
Is the price of Collinite 920 higher than other cleaners?
While the initial price point may be higher than some less specialized cleaners, the 64oz volume and its effectiveness as a pre-wax treatment that enhances wax longevity provide significant value for a superior, long-lasting finish.
