    "Window Wax"

    To all,

    I need some help here. When I was younger, we used a product we referred to as 'window wax'. We used it on the windows of cars we were detailing. It could also be used to 'quick wax' a car as it went on and off easy. This product was like milk in color and consistancy. Problem is, I don't know the real name of this product and I am trying to re-connect with it for personal use. Anyone know what it is or where I can find it?
    Clean cars run better 'cause they are happy.

    Hmmm . . . you may want to try something like Klasse Sealant Glaze, which has the attributes that you mention.

    Are you looking for something to 'wax' the glass? I use Rain-X on my vehicles during particular times of the year. It really lets the rain run off the window quick and bugs don't stick nearly as well than without Rain-X.

    I remember that can well ... cannot seem to get it any longer. Great for glass, but never used on paint.

    So what everyone think of Rain-X? Good to use, or no?

    dont like it as it streaks under some rain conditions. I prefer using Quikshine, Z6, or FK 425 on glass. It beads like crazy.

    Bill, shoot me a PM offline with the address of such products, I was told by the manufacturer it was discontinued some time ago when searching for it.
    I still find it on Ebay from time to time.
