Looks like this....will be using it this weekend.

Good stuff. Its inexpensive, looks good and has great durability. I have it on my truck now. Also a bottle will last you a very long time. You have to put in on very thin. Here is a link to thread that talks about it.

For those of you wondering exactly what Collonite Insulator wax looks like on a properly prepared surface, I decided to play crash test dummy for you. Last weekend, I washed (Zaino Car Wash Soap), Clayed, polished (Zaino Swirl Remover with my PC), then waxed (Collonite Insualtor Wax) my 2005 XLT with 62,000 miles on the clock. Here's the results. If it lasts through one of our winters half as good as it looks, I could get hooked.

I am actually impressed with your results with Zaino.

Thanks for the compliment. (Grasshoppr bows.) I'm a big fan of the Zaino stuff and have used it for several years, but I thought I'd see if something lasted longer for sloppy season. Winters up here in the great white north are brutal. So although the results are impressive, one has to remember that the finish I was working with was in pretty good shape to begin with. I just wish I could find a way to take a picture of Oxford White and do the shine any justice. Notice I resorted to a dusk shot this time.
PS: Congrats on the next little rock!
