Every "look at my wax" picture that I've ever seen looks "stunning."

Thanks guys, I don't mean it to be a replacement for Zaino, but it cost way less and you wax the plastic/rubber with it also, no white marks to clean, wipe it on, let haze and wipe it off.. We'll see how it last next..

I've never tried it myself, but the guys here in the detailing forum swear it's the biggest crap ever made! I actually swear by some Turtle Wax stuff (f21 tire foam for engine bay detailing, and their tire gels along with the f21 absolutely do not sling off tires) so don't think I'm posted this because I'm an anti-Turtle Wax person.

Like I said, I did'nt mean it as a replacement for Zaino. I talking ease of application and low cost.. I've used Cherry wet wax (does a good job but does'nt last), meguires/ etc..

I liked zaino the best but for $90 and dare not get it on any plastic parts,, its the best..

Do half of your hood in Ice, then the other half with a carnuba. Then come back and report which is more glasslike.

truck looks great but i think that crap sucks. i did my hood and then threw it in the garbage. I did not think it was easy to work with. I just prefer regular old carnuba wax
