I found this in my dad's stash today, he's never used it. Anyone have experience, should I even bother with it?







 
He said he got it for free at a car show. I wonder if it's the same as their Perfect-It series just an old version of it/old packaging.
 
Can't go wrong with a good Paste Wax. Do a test panel 1st to see if you like it. I've seen a few paste waxes long ago (Turtle Wax)that were not very user friendly and you nearly sprained your arm trying to remove it. And it was very powdery too.
 
I have a can and I really like it overall.



It is similar to Meg's #16, in that you need to apply it REALLY THIN! Also, it is a bit finicky as to its best set time. It is not a wowo, but you can't let it dry to anything more than a slight haze, or you'll be taking it off with a QD.



Durability is quite good, I have gotten up to the 3mo. mark with it on vehicles that sit outside. The overall shine is down in about 3 weeks, but can be maintained really easily with Meg's NXT booster wax.



The 3M pictured offers outstanding wetness on light colored metallics. It also does really well on bright solids, like yellow and red.



Overall, it is a very liquid looking WET wax, but is lacking in depth. Darkening or enrichening of dark colors is not its best quality.



This is my one of my absolute favorite lsp's for silver, as it makes it dripping wet and the metallic pops well.



Also, it smells GREAT! Like a pina colada...it makes be hungy.



Hope this helps, if you try it and don't care for it PM me, because I don't think 3M makes it anymore and I'd like to have another can.
