Being one of the winners in the below AGO
giveaway (again: Thanks Nick, et al):
http://www.autogeekonline.net/forum...thers-california-gold-waterless-wash-wax.html
I am now in receipt of Mothers WW&W.
[Notice that I also received one of
Mothers' LSPs... :dblthumb2:...(more on that later)]
With that being said:
I hereby respectfully submit my review for Mothers
California Gold Waterless Wash and Wax.
_________________________________________________
•First off, here's one of the main reasons I wanted
to try out this particular product:
-Since I'm a big fan of a WW product that
"leaves nothing behind"...
how will I like a product that says it:
"will leave something behind"?
-We'll find out in a moment or two.
_______________________________________________
•Most WWs state very clearly the type/amount of
vehicle-dirtiness for which they should be used.
-Mothers WW&W is no exception:
However...
What kinda FUN is that?!?!
Instead...
I thought I'd try it on some very contaminated surfaces:
Something like the below pictured inner/outer wheel surfaces---loaded down with ~1500 miles of brake dust and road contaminates---from some spirited driving.
Note:
I'm thinking that, with factoring in the level of difficulty I incur keeping these surfaces clean and shiny, this would
be an excellent place to not only initially use this Mothers product---but it would also make for an excellent test-bed for future cleaning.
Moving forward...
A couple of three pictures of the wheel surfaces
at the onset of this review:

After spraying this product, and while cleaning:
IMO: Important to note:
Per the product's instructions:
If the product would happen to dry up before
you're done...just respray the affected area.
(Yes...it works as advertised.)
______________________________________________
The results of this session with Mothers WW&W...
(to which these MF-towels can also attest):
_______________________________________________
Going a little bit off-topic...but:
Back to the additional Mothers product I received:
the Synthetic Wax.
According to the Mothers WW&W label:
an application of a Wax is recommended
for maximum results.
As such...
I applied this Mothers syn-wax:
Gave it time to haze;
and then removed the Wax's "excesses" to reveal the following:
This Mothers Synthetic Wax is good stuff!!
Its application and removal is easy-peasy.
rops:

And after an application of
my favorite tire "dressing":
The final results:
________________________________________________
•In conclusion:
-Mothers has come up with a WW&W product that has more than met my expectations as a cleaning product; one that should be capable of holding-its-own in the WW&W marketplace.
-Time (and a few miles) will tell-the-tale whether
"the what's left behind" will be effective, or not,
for future ease of maintenance.
Thanks for taking time to read this review.
I will be more than happy to entertain any pertinent questions anyone may have.
