Hey Brian, I was curious with a lot of these spray product reviews, if it's possible to weigh the bottle before and after a car's worth of application, just to see how much product you're using and how many cars/coats a various product would treat. Then give it a cost per oz "bang for your buck", with the scale you get hard numbers!

Im old school. Been using Turtle wax product s over 50 years. In my opinion, the cheap $6.00 Turtle wax soft paste is all you need. Goes on easy and nice shine and paste wax protection. I have their newer products that cost more, but to my eyes, I don t think the result is worth the extra money. Im sure they are all good products, but for me, I stick to old school, and by the way.....rain is very much repelled. Just my opinion.

Make sure you shake the bottle well It could be that it's drying faster due to temperature I used a micro fiber cloth and pretty much soaked it I used that to apply in a 2 foot by 2 foot area Wiped off with a clean micro fiber and then used another clean micro fiber to wipe it down again. First coat had a nice gloss tonit 24 hrs later I did a second coat and when I finished it didn't seem any glossier But the next day after it dried it was rally glossy Sooooooooo I put a third coat on 24 hrs later and when I finished I swear the whole car looked wet. It also filled in minor swirls marks. I got no streaks at all and so far this product has added more gloss then anything else I tried including turtle wax seal and Shine which I like Tomorrow imma gonna put a fourth coat on for shits and giggles.
