i did it works great especially on our cf spoiler. after waxing my car i used it and last around 1 1/2 week of shine. highly recomended. it will show the gloss of your car, and it will look like u just waxed it after a regular wash

If it's only lasting about 1 1/2 weeks then it can't be that great. THere are other products out there that lasts longer than that.

I seen it the other day. I'm usually one who will try everything, but for some reason I didn't pick it up.

I was wondering about that stuff. I seen it in Auto Zone a few weeks ago while picking up some stuff for my Jetta. I think i'll stick with my Eagle 1 Nano wax if it only lasts a week and a half. I WAS a Meguiar's user until I used the Nano wax.

I just wish the weather in Ohio would get good enough so I could actually wash, wax and detail my car.

I pick everything that comes out since I'ma detailer, but the stuff looks like crap. For that price, it's useless. Nanowax is one of the worse waxes as well...over the counter, the only ones that are decent are gold class, NXT, and maybe mothers carnuba as well.

1.5 weeks? Wax should last 3~6 months if you keep soap away from it. Most poeple wash their wax off (with soap) wihtin a few weeks. My old auto -etailer buddy told me this trick: only WASH your car every few months right before you wax it. The rest of the time, just rinse it off with water and dry it with a chamois. I thought he was nuts at the time, but it works well.

I used to use gold class all the time but I like the Nano better. Whats bad about the Nano? I havent tried that NXT but I was looking at that also as I have heard good things about it.

Jarod....the NXT doesn't last very long either, but it's longer than 1.5 weeks. I use that stuff most of the time and it's so easy to put on and take off that I usually put a coat on my car about every 2 months just for the hell of it since it's not that time consuming. I'd say it lasts about 3 months or so. I just get bored and start waxing my car for no reason.
