Polycharger H20 in AW and OCW

Tried Polycharger H20 version in Aquawax and in Optimum Car Wax (both are water based products). I am initially impressed...shine and slickness may be even slightly better than without, but time will tell. The real test will be improved durability.

Please keep us posted. I would love to try it in AW. It is shiny and slick enough, but I would love for it last even longer w/ more shine and slickness. Thanks!

I wax/QD/Spray-Wax all to often. I enjoy working on my car too much. This would be great for the professionals out there though.

Will do, but durability is tough to measure....so many factors (weather, is the car out 24/7, and what is your "measure" of durability...size of beads, slickness, sheeting?). As far as cost, with water based sprays you use 1 dose per 4 oz. of spray.....so without cost of shipping, $40 for 60 doses (1 bottle) equates to about $0.67 per dose, so you'll increase the cost of a 16 oz. bottle of AW by about $2.70.

Nick19 brings out a very good point....like many on this board, we are always doing something to our cars....but for folks who just want to occasionally use a spray wax Polycharger might help.

I'm just a AG nut. I'd like to try Polycharger, but I probably won't buy it, because it will last me years to come.

AW is already pretty shiny, not really noticed durability longer than a week or wash session. Optimum is fairly bland looking, so this one has spiked my curiosity. Any pics ??

But regardless of how often you want to wax, reseal or QD, don't you always want to be putting on the shinniest, slickest or glossiest product/technique possible? I certainly understand your comment, but I can't help to think that even 'just taking care of our own car' we'd want to do what gives us the best. Ever reaching. Even if we turn around in a few weeks and strip it off and try something else.
