it probably can't hurt since it's only a few bucks, but I'm pretty skeptical about it. I just like the time I spend with my car waxing it by hand after having washed my car. Since wax is a layer you put over your car for protection against the elements I don't see how you can have a good smooth layer of wax when your washing your car. I think the only way I would like it is if I already had a layer of wax on my car and I use the stuff after my weekly wash. Hey if you don't like it make a post and tell us about it.

I pretty much do the same thing with the meguiars quick detailer. Instead of drying the car and then going back over it, I just spray and dry at the same time. Gives it a nice waxed look. Plus, I have a black car anyway and it's impossible to get the whole thing dry before some of the water evaporates by itself.

This stuff has been around for a long time, just not under any consumer brand. It is basically the same as a product called Easy Beads. You would wash the car normally and then hose it down, after you hose it down...you spray the easy beads over the entire car and then hose it off again. The paint will bead up like it was just waxed. It also left a slight gloss to the paint. It would last until it rained or until you washed the car again.

I got Eagle One Wet polish&wax... seems to make my ride look shiny and crap just slides off after it's on..(well crap comes off easily)

So i guess it might be worth a shot.. also the Eagle One wax seemed to be the more $$ than Meguires...good thing i got it free with the car

I can't believe this wax will last to long... I guess it would work in a pinch, but in no way would replace a real wax job.
