Y'know, it's not bad, not bad at all. You could do worse than this. The compromises are minor, and are of the "bubba-proofing" type, rather than the "quality" type.



It's very thin, very liquid. I saturated a foam applicator and did one entire side of the car; another ounce did the other side. The fact that it is very thin also makes application easy, and makes it virtually impossible too use much wax (and prevents the subsequent caking). It is a pure wax, with no solvents or abrasives, making it layerable, over SG for example (which is what I put it over). I got no pigment at all on the applicator.



It's very "clean" looking, very shiny, nice wetness. Not the deepest, but respectable; not the slickest, but again respectable. It's not that far off of the high priced and highly regarded Autopian products, folks. It's a very pleasant look. And what, $3, $4 a bottle?



It's an honest product.

Aw heck, nuthin' is ever on my car long enough for me to know how durable it is. I'd guess it's probably a typical carnauba. Not the longest, not the least.

I've used the 3 step process and it does create a great looking shine. Doesn't last very long though. After about 1.5 months you can tell its starting to fade and water doesn't beed as well anymore. For the price though, its a very good product and I don't mind having to do it every few months
