Wet and Wax polish
Has anyone tried the Wet and Wax polish from Turtle wax?
I washed the car today but never had time to put on any polish due to rain clouds coming over. I tried turtle wax Wet And Wax polish which was given to me a few months ago but never used. You put it on the car while taking off the water with a chamois. It looked horrible for about 10 minutes and had a dull look like a greasy haze all over the car. As soon as it dried it looked superb. Ok its no replacement for a decent wax polish but as a quick make do its excellent. Ken |

Haven't tried that but has any one used the waterless car wash ? you just spray on and wipe off no matter how dirty the car is.

I too use the Turtle Wax "Wash and Wax" shampoo but then I always follow up with a propper coat of wax (Turtle Wax Platinum for me) afterwards. If it looks like rain I pull the car up under the carport

Hommer, I saw that spray and wipe 'stuff' on a shopping channel and was wondering if it was as good as it looked. That kinda thing seldom does...

I have used it and I am really impressed although I find that it is not so good in the winter. When the temperature is low it does tend to smear quite a bit - more so on the roof for some reason. In the summer it looks fabulous!
Have you (or anyone) tried the Supagard treatment for themselves? I have got one but not yet dared apply it yet as I am waiting for warmer weather. |

Wax It Wet Polish
Hi Club Members. I Have Used Turtle Wax It Wet And Have Been Quite Pleased With It, I Do Not Think It Will Be As Durable As A Proper Liquid Polish But As A Quick Way Of Topping Up An Already Waxed Car Its Very Good. With The Dark Nights Now Upon Us And Good Valeting Time Short Turtle Wax-wax It Wet Is An Ideal Way To Give Your Car Some Protection Quickly.

Thats a great way to use it. For a quick once over or a top up you cannot beat it.
