1 ZGlanz Wax is a wax. You can read about the product at Autopia. Btw I used this wax on my father-in law's car this past Sunday. It was the first I used this product. I applied it to the entire car by hand then went back and wiped it off with a micro. It smells like a solvent and has the viscosity of water(very thin). I put it on after Poorboys Ex. The car looked great. I will use it on my wife's silver car this coming week. Hope this helps.
