I used the wax and the clay a few times. Nice results.

I have the liquid wax with the applicator, and that stuff works pretty well. Just a little bit goes a long way. I also have the spray detailer. I would have to say that I do like the stuff, but I've found that the Meguires Ultimate works the best for me (if that's the right name...I can't remember for sure)...

I use the car wash and have been very impressed with it.

It fills (mask)the scratches..... Let us know how many times you can wash it before the scratches reappear, because they are still there.

I wrote up a review of the Ice line and lots of other people have said good and bad about it:

I used it and HATED it. Below is my experience;

The first time I used Turtle Wax Ice, I thought it went on and came off easily. It left a bit of a haze, but easily wiped off. I liked the fact that it didn't leave that dried, caked powdery residue that flakes off and leaves little flakes on the plastic pieces and tires.

However, the SECOND time I used it it went on easily and I THOUGHT I got it off. The car 'looked' fairly good. But when I was showing someone my clear car bra, I ran my fingers along the hood and noticed that it felt somewhat rough. Actually, the entire car felt that way. So I had to wash it completely over again!

Then, in order to restore the car, I had to clay bar it. I then bought Meguiar's three step process products. Step 1 is a paint cleaner, step 2 is a polish (which did an excellent job of taking out most of the scratches) and step 3 is the wax (I actually use their 'Gold Class' wax - it does leave the residue which I hate, but it really looks terrific when done properly). Prior to step 3, I added Meguiar's show car glaze. THIS really made the car shine!

I know a lot of people think Meguiar's is garbage, but for an over the counter, relativly inexpensive solution I think their stuff is great.

In short, I was so FRUSTRATED with the Turtle Wax Ice that I threw the remainder of it in the garbage. I'm glad you like it and it worked for you, but I will never buy another Turtle Wax product.

meguiar's professional line of products and heck over the counter/retail products are some of the best bang for the buck products I have used...


as for the ICE

I used it once when it came out..on the hood of my mercedes, i went right back to my 3 step routine with Meg's cleaner,polish,wax. I'll prob give the rest of this crap away, it doesn't last or endure the weather after 2-3 rains.

Ice doesn't put anything rough on your car. Sounds like you got some tar or diesel exhaust spray.

There is a world of difference between the spray and the paste. I can see the spray lasting on a short while.

Quick , fast, no residue and it shines. I'm sticking with this ICE rain or shine!
