pad/compound combination

[Mike Phillips]

Did you read in my previous message. I use COLLINITE 845 on my car and I really like it. So I want to either use an aio or polish that is compatible with it.

Collinite 845 is an old-school style wax and you can pretty much use any quality compound, polish and/or AIO to prep the paint for this wax.

to prep the paint before you put on collinite 845 I did not know you could use any aio polish or compound. I thought I had to pick one that was compatible with the COLLINITE 845. Mike with that being said is there any thing products that if I put COLLINITE 845 on top of that it will not work because of compatibility issues. Thanks.

There's not much to be compatible with the Collinite Wax. It's an old school style wax and all it really needs is a clean, smooth surface to stick to.

None that I can think of.


In your other thread HERE - you wrote,

As a beginner what would be some good polishing and correcting products that would be easy to use. Thanks.

Then I answered,

That said, Harbor Freight carries some Meguiar's compounds and polishes and if you're getting your Harbor Freight polisher there, might as well get some products and pads while you're at it.

And because I work for Dr. Beasley's, I would put our NSP Primers up against anything. The chemistry is completely different than anything else on the market and they do cost more. So let your budget be your guide.

The Meguiar's compounds and polishes were used for over 100 years to prep paint for WAX. So you're good to go.


At some point, after you collect all your supplies, it's time to stop researching, go out to the garage and get busy.

The supplies you've shared will be more than enough to buff out your Toyota Corolla.

Remember - if it's your first time, just tackle the hood or the front clip the first time and call it a day. You won't be working until midnight to finish what you started and you'll have a complete understanding for what you're getting into when you tackle the rest of the car.

Good luck!
