Reflection: Optimum Car Wax

[Nick McKees37]

After applying Poli-Seal and a coat of Max Wax last December, my daily driver was in need of a boost...

If you don't have time to break out the polisher and your favorite sealant or wax, Optimum Car Wax makes a great booster or stand alone wax that provides months of additional protection.

Products used:

DP Waterless Wash Concentrate
Cobra 600 Microfiber Towels
Optimum Car Wax

It took less than 35 minutes to do a complete waterless wash and apply the wax. Spray on, buff off - it's as simple as that.

I love this stuff, I applied 2 coats back to back on my girlfirends carolla and it has been going strong for 2 months now

For whatever reason, I've never had any luck with Optimum Car Wax. I think I know the problem...its temperature sensitive according to the label (even says on the bottle not to apply under 55 degrees)...well, we've had like 3 days since last October that were warmer than 55 degrees (slightly exaggerated but you get the point). It may work in Florida...but...

I really like Meg's Quik Wax....it works in any condition from what I have seen and the gloss is really remarkable for a product under $10. Oh, and it sheets water like crazy as well.

I applied it around 6:30 pm, about 80 degrees outside and had no problem with it streaking or hazing. Some quick detailers/spray waxes are more sensitive to temperatures than others.

Water beading...

I want to try this eventually. But I have way to much stuff as it is now.
