RainX, Nano, and S100

Wednesday, I washed and waxed my car. After a discussion on Castrol Accuvision, their RainX type product, I decided to use the method that someone mention here to apply RainX. That it, glop the crap out of it, and then wash your car. Worked great. :up And man, I forgot how much nicer RainX is compared to that easy to apply stuff. And now, with whoever's tip it was I read, the RainX is easy to apply too.



So, I've felt less than creative in my wax choices lately. I keep uisng ColorX, which is a good cleaner sealant, but after a few times it gets boring. Well, it's still holding up since I guess 8 weeks ago, but I decided to try my free Nanowax again. I did half the hood and decided it was too diffucult to remove for the results it gave me, which were a little streaky, and stopped using it and got out the S100.



S100 was a little streaky, but it was starting to spinkle on me (rain, that is) and it looked great by the morning. I cannot belive how easy it is to put on a carnauba. Even though this is not the first time I've used it, as I'm about 1/3 through my jar, it still amazes me that I was under the impression that paste waxes were a pain all of my life.



That's it. Just wanted to share. Disclaimer: I don't work for any of these companies, well, unless they offer me some money to do so. Though I do tend to have the WhateverX products, don't I.
 
How did you apply it? I'm trying to make it thin, but the product just isn't all that thin. I'm thinking that I'm giving up too early on it, and maybe the stuff I'm getting is what's been sitting in the little tube. I've thought about it, and I'm not seeing how I'm messing up.



I think next time I try it, I'll do the trunk, since maybe the hood was too warm. Also, I'm not sure what the effect of me having the rain sprinkle on me is on the product.
 
first of all i applied it in the shade on a cool DRY car...........Make sure the hood is cold not warm and most of all thin thin thin with a foam appy that is a little damp.The hell with the pump I use a despencer from US plastices.Nano wax is a thin product shake it up before using
 
~One man’s opinion / observations ~



The best tip I’ve come across (so far) for polymers-



The secret to the application of any polymer product is to apply it thin (super thin) fill a spray bottle and mist a foam pad for application.



~Hope this helps~
