NEW Autoglym High Definition Wax

Ok, the verdict is in.



I finally got to try out the HD this weekend. I used it on a Plymouth Prowler that I spent about 20 hours correcting, and I must say, I really like the wax. I will start by saying, the application with the supplied applicator is a slight pain in the arse (I'll probably use a yellow foam applicator next time, but I wanted to try the HD applicators out). When trying out a new wax for the first time, I like to apply it THICK, just to see how difficult a wax can be to remove. I know that's strange, but I want to know the worst case scenario. This time was no exception...The car looked like a cake after I was finished. I honestly thought to myself, "I am screwed!", as I was watching it dry. I used one of the Shamrock 750 towels to remove the wax after allowing it to haze for about 25 minutes.



I was shocked at how easy it came off. Granted, there were a couple of spots that were difficult to remove, but overall, it came off with little effort. Now on to the "look" of the wax; It is very similar to P21S 100%. I believe Todd described it as "liquid clarity" which is a great way to describe it. It did a nice job in bringing out the flake in the paint, and looks as if the car is covered in glass...A nice, sharp reflective look, that I personally like.



I've heard the durability is supposed to be pretty decent, but I won't be able to tell with this car, since it's kept in a warehouse. The owner will be driving it to Florida for a couple of weeks, and I'll probably have to wash it when it returns, so I may be able to give a small status report. All in all, I was very pleased with the wax...and with the conversion rate being so favorable, ~$58 from the U.K. shipped isn't a bad price.
 
I used it on my black Altima and Bmw 328. It went on easy and came off just as easy.The look is like Hulk said, durability is still a question mark. I like this wax a lot I like the final look. NO complaints.

Thanks for the review, you pretty much covered everything I was wondering about :xyxthumbs
 
Just an update; If you're in the US apparently WalMart is going to carry it.



My local one had 2-boxes tonight. $35.



After the reviews I may go back and get it...
 
I third the sighting of it at Walmart. They had 2 boxes of it and it's funny because it looks out of place on the shelf. (Nice black box in a sea of cheap bright colored products). :think:

I've been in three WM's and seen two boxes at each store, along with a box of the perfect palm applicators.
 
I ended up getting one.. like a sucker.... even though most people compare the look to PS21. LSP #33 on the list. I need to stop buying this stuff.

LMAO!



I too have read that the look is similar to P21S. However I have also read that this product has excellent durability as well.
 
I just bought some today. Haven't really had a chance to apply it due to poor weather, busy with other stuff; I will let you guys know what I think later!



I hear it's good in terms of durability. Would it compare to 845?

One store I was in had two. I bought one of them. The other Walmart I went in had 7-8 of them. :shocked
