    Turtle wax ice products

    I found Turtle wax sealant on clearance, less than 4 dollars and a bottle of Turtle wax ice spray. I always use my wife's Durango as my guinea pig. I applied the sealant first and then the Ice wax. On my truck I did an ipa wipe. I applied a coating of the sealant to my white finish. I was about to begin with the ice wax. I was using the blue microfiber towel from Griots Garage, a great towel. I noticed what I can only describe as fiber looking material on my hood. The ice wax would not remove the fibers. I tried 3D final touch and no go. So I brought out PC 7424XP with a mf bonnet around the white pad glued to the backing plate that comes with the PC. The PC and my bonnet removed the fibers. Once the fibers were gone, my white truck has a wet look again. Prior to this detailing, I had applied Mckee's jeweling polish. To dark currently for photos.

    Re: Turtle wax ice products

    Sounds to me like you either didn't apply or buff the sealant properly.

    Might have been some linting from the towel that stuck to the Ice wax?

    You mean the McKee's 37 Jeweling Wax?

    What did you think of the Jeweling Wax?

    The Mckee's 37 jeweling polish is a superior product. The working or open time phenomenal. I used Mckee's in direct sunlight with no issues. Left my white finish looking wet as I have not achieved with other products. I will definitely order again.

    So after that, you felt the need to follow it with "on clearance" Turtle Wax, which caused all the problems you described in your first post? And, since I hadn't really understood the point of your initial post...the point is that McKee's products are way better than Turtle Wax?

    The reason I applied the other product was just to see what kind of result I would get. I enjoy experimenting with products.
