    All the reviews I've watched says yes, this wax WILL impress you! Easy to work with, dispense, remove and like I said the gloss and slickness are awesome! The durability is all over the board, I've seen good and not so good, so take that for what's it's worthWhat did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    Excellent. Exactly what I need, something else to set my sights on. What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    I just started messing around with spray coatings and now I'm thinking a normal coating wouldn't be half bad for winter. Now I'm learning there are compatible waxes... I'll be poor before the year's out

    No problem, it looks much better. It's a good app, it can make some very fancy and artistic images, but my aim is to make them look like what I'm seeing. If you're in bright sunlight you can also put your sunglasses in front of the phone lens to use it as a polarising filter.

    Ha! Still have plenty of BH Touchless. And last winter I never put the pressure washer away. Colorado has no shortage of warm days and sunshine throughout the winter so I'm good with those items.

    I would reconsider using gyeon wax on top of an existing coating that is in good shape. A number of people have stated that when topping their coating with gyeon wax, once the wax faded the coating did not return to form no matter what they did.

    Sandro from car craft auto detailing has a good video displaying this phenomenon:

    I got bored watching the Bathurst 1000, I don't seem to be able to just sit and watch 161 laps straight like I used to, actually I've never really done that. So I thought I'd add a sacrificial layer to the Qashqai, I can't even remember what the main protection is anymore, but whatever's on there is working well, yesterday's wash was very easy. Today I added some Meg's Quikwax, more protection from the spring bird bombs, and maybe some more gloss, it's just so easy to apply.

    Anyway, go the Chevy's, that doesn't feel right, but I definitely can't cheer on the Fords.

    I would clear my schedule and devote the weekend to the race. Devoured every single second of it. This year, I only watched the qualifying session, the top 10 shootout, and the last 10 laps.

    Pains me to say it, but I've lost interest, the category is a lost cause now and a complete farse. I almost feel guilty for not bothering to watch it from start to finish like I once did, but the way Ford have been treated this year is a disgrace to the sport and disrespectful to all that have committed to the sport in general.

    You can apply by hand or machine. I've been applying it by machine for a more consistent coating, using a hand applicator for intricate areas.

    Great post. My experience is the same as Sandro’s. Worst thing I did was apply Q2 wax over a coating and the hydrophobic’s of the coating never coming back. I would say don’t do it.
