Came across Bouncer's Wax awhile ago, I've been eager to try it since. I picked up the 100ml size, this pot is discontinued to my knowledge however sherbet fizz is still produced by Bouncer's.

Apparently Bouncer's waxes contain everything the 100-1000+ waxes do, without the excessive price tag, I can't dissect his wax however I can test it against others, so lets find out if Bouncer's Sherbet Fizz showed up to play today!

Initial thoughts.. the smell, incredible smell, sherbet fizz sums it up perfectly, its an overwhelming smell--- but in a great way. I love it, I've opened the pot several times just to smell it, it will quickly fill the room. However don't be alarmed its not overwhelming negatively in the slightest..

this pot never appeared air tight to me, so I kept it zip locked -- however I do this with all of my wax so ensure the longest shelf life possible (extremely long)

I applied this wax with the dodo juice supernatural finger mitt please see SON1C Synopsis 35 :D for that review

The wax was applied in direct sun light, this wax goes on extremely thin, I mean extremely thin, when over applied buff off becomes a bit of a pain, as some say on here -- thin is in!
I basically would apply to a panel, and then start buffing off the side I started, however the suggest haze time on the pot is only 2-5 minutes so it basically sat right in with directions

Final thoughts..
Great wax, and have I said that the smell is incredible?
The only real negative is the container, it's extremely fragile and I don't really like anything about it aside from the looks. Expected durability is 3-4 months so I will update on that, but most importantly how does it look! well, hopefully these pictures will speak for themselves :D

Looks kick ash man.
I really wanna try it
 
Nice review!! I have both containers and the new ones blow those away. I always had the same thoughts as you do with that container. Nice to see Bouncer upgraded.

have you picked it up yet / are going to?

thanks jim, yeah exactly glad we're on the same page, i haven't dealt with the new containers but they look pretty sturdy, do they have an o-ring on them? iirc just from the couple pictures I looked at they reminded me of a couple of the cg containers -- like xxx / wheel guard / black
 
Sweet! I'm visualizing the smell right now.

:D

when we meet up to detail etc I can bring it lol, idk how jay packed so much smell into 100ml
 
Sonic looks super. Curious on you future thoughts of this wax.

I got the Vanilla Ice, but work & weather has not been cooperative. I'll get to though.
 
Also Sonic, what do you use in between waxes? I see V07 in your collection. How about OCW?

Thanks
Larry

thanks man! I'll update as it progresses, faced some snow today
let me know how you like vanilla ice that's definitely a wax I'd like to try :xyxthumbs:
All LSP's look the damn same to me!






















I must be blind. :/
honestly its kind of a trained eye, it took my awhile to develop it, but I see large differences between some lsps in what they bring to the table and my swirl free paint recently corrected looked eh to me when it was naked, however once applying a quality lsp it was back to where I like it
What really helped me to see the differences was taking a lot of pictures and trying to consistently use my car as the test vehicle--- when you're applying different waxes to different vehicles it becomes harder to gauge the differences etc
what are you currently using?

it varies -- v7 is my favorite, I enjoy eco touch spray wax as well, and chemical guys speedwipe (great smell and it boasts antidust tech depending on how much you buy into their marketing) ---mothers fx spray wax is great too
however I haven't been using any of those spray wax / sealant booster type products lately as I've been trying to gauge just the bare waxes and how they fair so as of late v7 has only been seeing action on the windows! I have never used ocw but I've always heard good things of it
 
Pleeeze don't make me want to buy any more wax!! Muhahahahaha.

UPDATE
Holding up strong, as it should! These are some of the most uniform tightest beads I've dealt with, I've had some tight beading, but typically it'll lose form in places, but this is incredibly tight as a whole,

so basically I'm saying bodacious beads you bead whores

Two questions 1) is it a do over? Meaning would you buy it again? and 2) Where did you get it?
 
As far as Bouncers go I intend to get some soon but can't really tell the difference other than price, and reported durability, acording to a site that sells it...

Capture the rap= rich high gloss shimmer
Sherb Fizz = depth and flake enhancement
Salute fruit= Shimmering wet look
Vanilla ice= Deep glow

To me these don't really distinguish themselves from each other, other than the durability projections which seem to vary from 1-2 months by 'rapture, and 4-6 by 'ice. I'm leaning toward the Ice I think.
