PB Quick Wax +

I posted a while back about buying PB QW+ and I finally got a chance to put it to full use.

We have had some cold days and the forecast for this weekend was warmer weather. On the way home yesterday I stopped at the car wash to get my Cowboy boots (I'm from Texas!) shined and yes, I ran the car through for a wash and vac. I know, I know, a sad choice. But, hey, my boots looked awesome!

This afternoon, the weather warmed up so I got out the PB QW+. I used an MF applicator and a Cobra Indigo MF to remove the wax. I sprayed the wax on a few places, like the hood and this worked okay, but I found it better to spray on the applicator. Less over spray that way.

The QW+ was easy to apply. I did the whole car sans half the hood and trunk lid to see if there was a difference. I then used the Indigo MF to remove and it was surprisingly easy to remove. I say that because I applied it thin but it looked thick (see the photos).

I could see a little difference in the half and half but I don't think the camera could pick up the subtle difference. After the whole car had been waxed with the QW+ I grabbed my PB Spray & Gloss and a plush MF. After that I applied some Pinnacle Black Onyx Tire Gel to the tires.

I liked the way the QW+ went on and off. It was indeed quick. It cleaned off some water spots left from the crappy car wash the evening before.

On to the pictures!

Re: PB Quick Wax +

Looks nice! Thanks for the review.

I love spray & gloss, but have never used QW+. How would you compare it to other spray wax type products.

Re: PB Quick Wax +

I didn't really care for mine, its almost the same amount of work as using a normal wax. Souveran Spray and DG Aquawax are much, much better...easier/quicker to use and AW has good durability.

Re: PB Quick Wax +

I still have 3/4 a gallon of the original, it was a nice spray wax option but many newer products (like Souveran Spray) are easier with nice results.

Re: PB Quick Wax +

The only other spray wax I've used is Pinnacle Liquid Souveran and it is very different. The Souveran sprays on like a QD and wipes off whereas the Poorboy's World QW+ is more like a thin liquid wax in a spray bottle.

I agree with this analogy. I also would be interested if the durability is different as well.

Re: PB Quick Wax +

The Souveran Spray is far easier to use and smells like cookies! It looks great too, a wet deep look, but it doesn't last very long. I've used Aquawax and it to is easy to use and seems to protect well but I don't care for the finished look. It seems to mute the finish IMO.

I think the PB QW+ was easier/ faster to apply than a paste wax. I'll be interested to see how well it holds up.

Re: PB Quick Wax +

Looks good reddwarf but I can't believe you took your jag through I car wash. Now you're going to need to polish it next weekend.

I know, it was a total lapse of judgment.
