does it say that somewhere on the bottle? I've always understood that you should put the most protective layer down first. in this case ceramic is much stronger than old school wax. that's interesting if they recommend to wax it first. most ceramic/sio2 spray waxes ive seen are effective as stand alone products
All microfiber towels are pretty much the same ..some might be a little softer than others but that's about it. It's all about how you use them and what cleaning/waxing product you're using.
definitely disagree lol im comparing those cheap guys that come in a huge pack for like $10 at autozone versus ones that i sent . have you used something similar before?
True, but honestly it was just trial and error for me. My truck is in the Vegas desert sun a lot so I definitely know a bit about maintaining my vehicle finish
But the seal and shine isn't all ceramic. There's a little bit of carnuba in it but not enough to use as a standalone. That's why I was recommending the regular ICE spray wax.
I have used the expensive mequire ones, and the Walmart 5 pack. The only difference i could tell (truthfully) is that the Mequire ones absorbed a little better. So I just use two of the Walmart ones for less $ instead of one Mequire towel.
giant bug gut stain on the hood forever...smh. Again... serious trial and error lol.No I did not, washed and hand buffed it well, that will be good enough for me.

Pretty much...you're basically blending the two together at that point.You should use the seal and shine (new formula) first and then come over the top with the new formula of turtle wax Ice. The combo is fantastic and I've used a lot from expensive stuff to cheap. The new formula of seal and shine added some carnuba to it as I understand and that provided some great smoothness and gloss. The seal and shine can go on anything.
ICE Spray Wax
Ice spray wax uses a fine-misting trigger to provide a fast and easy way to add layers of shine and protection thanks to its Smart Shield Technology™
These have been my favorite towels so far.

I usually use the two towel method and it works great. No residue or streaks.
i spy a white cutlass G-Body
v8?
Yup Brougham V-8 with 3 speed T200C. . We got it in 2015 from a Family member in Fresno CA who bought it new. Factory R12 is still ice cold. Got the gold olds factory keychains, window sticker, invoice. 19,000 original miles. Had not seen daylight since 1990. My Son's first car and he will not sell it. We now have 32000 miles. Every show we enter in, it wins 1st place in the 80's category. We gave up because there are too many trophies. Pretty funny.i spy a white cutlass G-Body
i had an 86 regal that i loved. nothing like good G-Body car. wish i didnt sell it as next owner wrecked it
i use adams h20 guard and gloss as a drying aid. i wash and rinse, spray the h20 guard and gloss as i dry each panel, and my trucks protected for 6+ months and beads water like crazy. i do this at least once every 2 weeks tho
.
Nothing. If you spray on anything and wipe the truck when it has a little dirt on it...you're wiping dirt particles into the clear coat (like sandpaper). Only thing you should be using is a California duster in between washes....again...LOTS of trial and error on my part lol.
