i would suggest claying before using it tho. I washed, clayed, washed and then used ice. Pity i dont have a digicam right now. Paint looks brand fuking new. Clay before tho to get a smooth and pure surface to use it on. Yea i saw it on spike tv when i was watching it in my backseat....lol so i bought it it costs like 20.00 for a decent sized bottle

i am wary of this. it says its a wax, but it says polish on the bottle. which is it? and its liquid, can go on plastics like a trim shiner. idk... i'm sticking to normal wax.

i've wanted to try the spray detailer, but... at $10 a bottle, that's just way overpriced. i can get some reputable boutique brands for that price...

I almost bought it... I was kind of put off by the fact that it says wax and polish on the same bottle. Seems interesting though, it says it can be applied in direct sunlight and even if the surface is hot to the touch. And it wont leave a residue on plastics. Seems alsmost too good to be true, but I would be willing to pay for it if enough people vouch for it.

what worries me is that it looks more like armorall or something than wax. its totally fluid and doesnt resemble a wax at all.

Just saw this today at the store, if people try this out and is ok, I'll try it next year when I use up all the wax that I got now. I still got some Turtle Wax Ultra Gloss and just got some Dupont Teflon 4 pack with wax and all the other tire products.

swirls? well its caused by rubbing in circle motion which isn't good. you can try to use glaze/polish beofre waxing and see if it helps. there are lots of products to try and cover it up. try meguiars scratchX.
