For those of you who's thinking of trying this out, don't bother. The wax is easy to apply but it's very hard to remove!
I got a couple bottles of this stuff for free so this past weekend I decided that it's time to clay and wax the car... I spent about 3 hours prepping the car for the wax (wash, rinse, dry, de-tar, de-bug, light rinse, clay, rinse, dry). When I started using the wax, it wasn't that hard to put on, but it took me forever to take off! :alien: I only let it dry for 5-10 minutes and the surface was cool to the touch. When I tried to remove the wax, it would leave a bunch of spots on the surface that's next to impossible to remove without some elbow grease. I only did 1/3 of the hood before giving up on it and used 3M wax instead. I'm guessing that it's hard to remove to wax because of the clayed surface, but none of the other waxes I've used are this hard to remove on any surface! :confused: As for the shine, it left a greasy film on the surface (not unlike rain-X), and I didn't think it shined that great.
Now I just got to wait until Target clearances their Zymol Wax for $3.75 again! I grabbed the last two bottles from them the last time... :banana:
