Default Turtle wax ICE

Anyone ever used this before? It's a synthetic liquid wax that is applied by a sponge, let sit for 5 minutes to cake on, and then wiped with a microfiber cloth and buffed with the other side of the cloth...they say you can do it in direct sunlight as well, and on plastic/rubber, I bought some for the hell of it but haven't gotten a chance to try it yet.

Tried some that a neighbor had last weekend on my black Mustang. Put it on in direct sunlight on a hot car and it did real good job. It works well on all the plastic molding too. But the Eagle One Nano wax does a better job especially if you have any light scratches or swirl marks. Plus it's cheaper.

Its not a wax though its just a polish so it doesnt protect anything. Its just used to shine and take out small swirl marks. If you use it and want it to last you need to go over it with a good quality wax. Turtel wax isnt one of those by the way lol. I am tempted however to try the ICE as alot of people say its good on plastic etc...

As of now i have been using mothers back-to-black which has been fantastic.

It works great but its not a wax, its a polish which doesnt protect your vehicle, like spike said. I usually put two coats on before i wax and results come out excelent.

Used it yesterday for the first time. It really shines, I loved the results. I also love the sound the bottle makes when you spray it, very futuristic :P
