Here is my early Christmas present to myself!!
I was first in line for the Son1c Carnaubavore release, so it would be logical to be the first in line for the NEW RELEASE, right?
I present to you the 2013 Limited Edition Merry Waxmas!!
It seems that Drew has been fast at work in the waxatory and his production of protowax has not slowed down any. I sure wish I lived closer to Virginia to see his "mad scientist lab", but being that I live well over a 1000 miles away, I think I will depend on his photo updates.
So what are my first impressions? I think I will conservatively say that he has another one out of the park!
The product comes in two (2) 50ml containers, one red and one white (candy cane theme perhaps?!, LOL!). I haven't tried them yet, since I got them yesterday, but did smell and touched the product. Similar to Carnaubavore, they are all natural hard waxes but seem a lot more slick. The smells are RIDICULOUS!!!! The red smells of a very festive Cinnamon smell whereas the white smells like peppermint with a slight vanilla undertone. I literally can't put them down! My wife did happen to come by the office to visit and I told her to smell them and she said without skipping a beat that they would make awesome candles! A vote for me and one from my wife.... and another from my staff! I kept the containers on my desk and they kept coming back to smell them (which encouraged quite a few of my patient's yesterday to do the same) Lets say it was disruptive enough that I had to put them away
Drew does have some technical info on his website, but he also made a nice video for the release. Have a look and feel free to once again show your support to one of our own

Just in case you were wondering, the car on the cover will most likely be the recipient of a layering Son1c Merry Waxmas. Drew developed the waxes to work together so what better way to test it out than on a blue ribbon, magazine cover, trailer queen...... and yes that is why I planted the magazine in the photo

Happy to see they arrived swiftly and safely Claude! I hope you enjoy them and I cannot wait to see the waxes applied onto any of the vehicles you do as your work is always superb. Also thanks for linking the video I tried to be concise while still covering the prep involved. I lol'd at the smell comments, tried to make the wax as festive as I could and smell can trigger many memories and emotions! The waxes are certainly white & red to symbolize a candy cane + intertwined in the sense that they were designed with specific layering capabilities.

I'm appreciative not only of autogeek, but also all of the AGO members -- there would be no SON1C Wax without this fantastic community.
Even if Mike is granny shifting and not double-clutching like he should.

Thanks bud! I am going to say it again, you need to bottle that stuff up in some air freshners
