So I finally got some pics from Easter after I had waxed that morning. This stuff is amazingly nice. The paint is very smooth. I would go as far to say it is more smooth than with my mequires.

One more thing. I was bored at home yesterday after work and so i decided to wash the cars because of the pollen.

Now last Sat I washed, clay barred and used mequires wax on my wifes Mini Cooper.

The next day i washed and waxed (too tires to clay bar it) with the Auto Glym wax.

So yesterday I go out to wash my truck first and as i was rinsing the body down from loose pollen, the water was extremely beading it up and literally running off the body. I mean I have waxed my vehicles for years but never have I seen water act like it did with this wax. I was hugely impressed.

When I washed my wifes Mini (with the Mequires wax on it), the water did bead but no where near like it did on mine. There was a bog difference between the two. I am going to get some more of this and retire my other waxes.

if you're even remotely impressed with a caranuba car wax then try a synthetic sealer some time and you will poop your pants.

While carnuba wax is great it has a few really big let downs. The main being it's durability even the most expensive of carnuba waxes lasts anywhere between 30-60 days and no longer. durability can be improved by using a quick detailer / spray on wax in between wax jobs.

A synthetic sealer like zaino, Klasse, or really any big name professional detailing brand, even meg's has a sealer in their higher end pro stuff not the junk you get at autozone.

sealers actually bond with the paint not just sit on top and last much much much longer. a sealer will last at a minimum six months and in most cases when applied properly will last a year.
