Waxing complete, having acquired the services of my misses while I stood back and supervised
I seem to have an awful lot of stone chips on my bonnet, but otherwise it's come up very well

mmmm, that doesn't sound like a good wax for a dark coloured car. I'm going to stick to R222, I've not found anything better for a wet look on dark coloured paint. Really easy to put on, just as easy to polish, doesn't leave any white marks on rubber/plastic - in fact makes them look new. Leaves a super smooth, glass like finish which doesn't attract dustMrPT wrote: ↑Wed Apr 11, 2018 12:19 am Great write-up. Sounds like it has a lot of the characteristics of a decent silicone-based sealant though. Easy on/off, low volume, super hydrophobic, good gloss but not much “pop”, slightly tacky feeling. It’s the latter characteristic that makes me want to switch back to a harder (paste) wax - any kind of fine dust in the air (or Saharan rain!) sticks to the paintwork and won’t come off until the next rinse.
Shouldn't this thread be in the "detailing + bodywork" section?

Hi Guys
Read all the good stuff about Harly Wax and went direct to them in the U.S.A and purchased a can. And they shipped it to my U.S.A address and then I get NZ Post to send it to me here in NZ.
Only to get told that at NZ Post
"Our warehouse have reviewed the MSDS and invoice that were provided and they have advised that this item is unable to be shipped as it is considered a flammable item. "
So can't get the stuff down here. Bugger

Why not use mothers Carnauba wax, there won't be much difference, if any, to the finish to your paintwork, prep beforehand is the key.

Set up a website and eBay shop and start selling it yourself.
There's obviously a market and it's the next big thing so I've heard!

Got a reply from Harly Wax U.S.A
That they are surprised at having difficulty shipping Harly Wax to New Zealand as they have never had an issue shipping Harly Wax to Europe. And they will be happy to issue a refund if I return it to them.
