The perfect fusion of nanotechnology and carnauba!
Nanoskin Hydrophobic Nano Paste Wax is a true hybrid car wax. It is formulated using nano-sized polymers and high-grade carnauba wax designed to provide continuous water beading, month after month. Nanoskin Hydrophobic Nano Paste Wax is the perfect fusion between a synthetic paint sealant and a carnauba paste wax. Nano-sized polymers provide winter-tough durability and real carnauba wax makes your vehicle glow. Nanoskin Hydrophobic Nano Paste Wax is one of the few paste waxes that can double as both a show-car wax and a winter-wax.
I have seen a few people asking about this product, so I figured since I have owned it for a while, I could do a quick write up about it. I have only used it a handful of times - both on my personal vehicles and with a couple of customer cars, so keep that in mind.
I have only ever applied this product by hand with a foam applicator pad - never by machine. I have found it relatively easy to use, but definitely not the easiest. It spreads fairly well, and is removed quite easily using a plush MF towel. The wax leaves a nice shine, and relatively warm glow to the finish. The protection is also great. Water beads and sheets very nicely.
The first 4 photos were taken in July of 2012 when I did a full correction on my personal vehicle. I used this wax as the LSP and was happy with the results. You can see the gorgeous gloss and shine - obviously enhanced by the perfect paint, but the wax added a nice glow.

The next photo was taken in November of 2012 (approx. 4 months after application). You can see the water still attempts to bead, however it is safe to say that another application would be best. (At this point, I stripped the wax and applied 22ple VX1 Pro Coating (http://www.autogeekonline.net/forum/show-n-shine/57332-product-game-changer-22ple-vx1-pro-coating.html))

I made this video recently (February 2013) after applying it to my other car. You can see the beading and sheeting abilities of this wax. Not too bad.

In the end, I have no real complaints about this wax, but at the same time it did not wow me in any way. For the price, it may be worth a shot if you are looking to try something different. It has a nice look, provides a nice shine, and seems to protect quite well. If you are looking for something with good durability and a nice look - you may want to give this product a shot.
Thanks!
