Default New Turtle Wax "Ice"

If you havn't tried this save your money. This is supposed to be a polish and it wouldn't even remove fingerprints. It left streaks everywhere. I tried a second time since it says let dry to a haze and the first time it didn't haze even after 10-15 minutes. The second time I left it on for an hour with no haze and the same streaking results. Waste of 18 bucks. I ended up wiping the whole car down with my Bead X Formula 113.

Huh, turtle wax is good stuff imo. Well not good enough for my cars of course but good enough for my dad's truck and mom's car. Give them that nice shine and keep em from oxodizing.

I could have told you that. I get the lowdown on all of these consumer car care products, I work at a distribution center for Advance Auto Parts for my 2nd job as a regional manager. And I see the average sales of products, reviews, etc.

Stick with Meguiars.

Anything with the words "turtle" and "wax" on the side of the bottle I avoid....like the plague.
Meguiars is the low end of the stuff I use anymore.


Epic products are top of the line and fairly affordable.

The same thing happened to me with 3M's Showcar Glaze. The streaks were horrible.
