What’s your view on the product? Did you find it easy to apply? There’s been a lot of content about it, some good and some bad.

Nice job, it will be good to know how long it actually stays effective for ?
Been watching the YouTube vids and undecided 🤷🏻‍♂️

I mainly used auto gym aqua wax each wash between main wax applications every 6 months and this product seemed to apply very much like that, ie a wet clean car, apply product and then work onto the panels via a rub and dry as the application base coat. not sure I would just spray and jet wash for further applications however as described on the bottle.

Will be interesting to see if and how much longer it stays on the panel against the aqua wax but time will tell...

Lots of negative press on this product. Did you find it hard to buff off? Did it make a mess of your glass?
On the positive side, it looks like you've got a great shine there!

Seems fine to me, you apply it to a wet car so don’t really buff it just wipe until dry unless people are applying it dry which isn’t right. Sprays like any other product so again unless your slap dash with it you’d get it on glass like any other spray wax.

I just tried this at the weekend for the first time too.. Breeze to apply and take off, but it does seem to have left some marks on the glass.
But then I already had Gtechnic G1 on the glass, and that's gone on top, so that might not be helping. Rest of the car looks pretty good tho.


Don't know if I like it as much as my old trusty Collinite 476.. time will tell! 8)

Update:

Gone to wash the car for the first time since original post. Probably covered 500 miles non wet driving and car basically had a cover of road dust at this point.

After applying to wheels also definitely less brake dust buildup between washing and after just shooting the bonnet with the jet wash still a lot of beading!!

This stuff for the price is definitely better than the old wet wax and wax applications I would use.
