Its a good durable wax...I used to think it was pants...but to be honest, it aint so bad!

What vehicle and colour are you using it on?

I recently done my dads Silver E46...used Magifoam, Duragloss 901 shampoo, Clay, Megs 101 I think it was, AG HD Cleanser (meant to make the Wax last longer), AG HD Wax, Extra Gloss Protection on top

It has come out VERY good!

For the money it's easy to apply and take off and beads well for a £30 wax

And smells awesome

I have a car cleaning business, been doing it since 2005, search jw autoshine on Facebook, you can see all the cars I have detailed and then used HD wax to finish. In my opinion it works well for a £30 wax, doesn't have to much filler, and beads well for up to 3 months. Like all waxes, it needs good prep work to work well, iPa is a good idea to especially after machining. Otherwise in the sun you will see when removing you will just be pushing hd wax around the panel and not getting rid of it! Good for the money!
