i used it this weekend. smells allot more chemical than the original version. i think it works better, it definitely sheathed off of the car, the older one just kinda puddled up and ran, this one kinda lays on the surface of the car. it did a nice job, my car looked allot cleaner, but maybe its just cause we've had so much snow this year and anything would have made it look better. i would say though, if they had raised the price and offered the older version still, i would just stay with the older version. they both work great. i have not tried it as a qd yet.
