Optimum Spray Wax and Black Fire Spray Wax?

[TheAverageMan]

Quick questions for anyone that has these.

Optimum states that their's doesn't stain black trim, but does anyone know if Black Fire Midnight Sun Spray Wax stains trim?

Has anyone used both of these, and if so, which one would you say is better?

I dont have experience with either cause I use megs d156....it doesnt stain anything and looks fabulous.

[TheAverageMan]

Yeah, I got D156, but wanted to try the other two, cause according to my research, they make the paint pop more due to their heavy carnuba base.

If you notice a difference be sure to report back and Ill have to look into some but Im sure they are pretty similar. Once my d156 runs out Ill try some BF spray wax.

OPT Spray wax is quite nice. Goes on like a QD but lasts for months. You can spray it on paint, glass, plastic with no worries.

I'm not going to concern myself with how much(%)
of Wax it takes in a product for it to be considered as
having a heavy carnauba base...

It's more pertinent for me to know that Optimum's
Car Wax (OCW) contains UV absorbers and/or Light
stabilizers that are, in and of themselves: hydrophobic
in nature; and are encapsulated within whatever Wax,
or type of a Wax, that constitutes OCW's suspension.

OCW...Good Stuff!

+1 on OCW. But trickier to apply than D156 but the "carnuba glow" is noticeable and very durable.

BLACKFIRE won't stain trim either. As a matter of fact, it will actually protect plastic trim because it too contains UVA and UVB absorbers. Apply it to paint, plastic, headlights, decorative plastic chrome trim, etc.

IMO and from 1st hand experience....I no longer use Optimum Spray Wax I use Blackfire's Carnauba Spray wax. The Midnight Sun Polymer Spray is great also. If you had a choice I would go Blackfire all day. (2nd question)

But to answer the 1st question, neither of them stain trim.

PS: I would spend the extra $$ and get Blackfire as it is well worth it.

Neither stain trim. I don't think anyone (other than maybe AG staff) has used the new BF spray long enough to know if durability matches OCW, but I found it easier to use (less chance of streaks on dark colors). I haven't broken out my bottle of OCW in a while, but I'm pretty sure BF has better beading just from memory.
