Product:
Finish Kare 1 Pink Wax (paste wax)
Price & Price Per Ounce:
$14.70 - 1 lb.
$.92/oz
Manufacturer Claims:
"Excellent For Extra Show Car Depth And Gloss. A Modern Blend Of Carnuba And High Grade Polymer Resins Which Deliver An Ultra Deep Glossy Protective Film. The Cross Link Of Polymers And Carnubas Hold Up Were Others Break Down In Heat And Caustic Environments.
A Must For Surfaces Exposed To Tree Sap. Will Fill In Light Surface Scratches. Easy On Easy Off."
Packaging:
Comes in a white tin with pink writing. You have to use a key or flat-head screwdriver to pop it open. The packaging is very durable, but also very 'old school'.
Color/Scent/Viscosity:
The wax is pink in color and seems to have a "wet" look to it in the packaging (most pastes look matte). It gives off a very strong chemical odor but I didn't note any cleaning abilities. The wax has a tendency to chunk up a bit, but I didn't find a problem with use.
How I used (as per instructions):
Applied with a brand new yellow foam applicator in very thin coats to two panels at a time. Once on, I went right back and removed via Meguiar's Supreme Shine MF towel. The wax went on very easily on a clayed/polished surface once the applicator was "wet" with product. It spread for a nice amount of time and didn't have a problem going on thin. The product came off without problems even in areas applied thick (for testing). For slightly better results, I spit shined (applied wax, spritzed some QD on it, then removed).
Overall Thoughts:
This wax blew my socks off. Yes, it's a heavy wax and is not well known at all. However, there was a noticeable improvement in wetness, clarity, and overall richness of color (depth). The slickness bumped up a bit as well. Beading with this wax is pretty neat to look at as it's usually very tightly spaced, large/tall beads. I have used it over a sealant (Zaino) and wax (Natty's). Both times it went on and off easily and both times it improved the appearance.
Other Notes:
Great on dark colors. Haven't tried it on anything light yet. Stay tuned to this thread for durability updates.
