You didn't get left out. I sent all of them at the same time, and I know yours is on the way. Please let me know when you get it.

I got it like 2 days ago. I tested it out today and the Platinum44 wax definitely has the appearance as p21s in comparison. Lets see how long it lasts now.

You want pictures of the whole process from a dirty car to after wax? Shine wise you really dont notice a difference in my pics since my car is ridiculously shiny all the time lol, even when dirty but the wax definitely brought out the flakes and beads the water off of the car well.

The wax also removed some waterspots I had left over and even seemed to remove light scratches? I applied with a PC on speed 1 like it said on the bottle and worked the product in.

Will have pics up hopefully by the end of the week as I am really busy.

Hey DetailDude I just got the spray in yesterday but it was raining so I couldn't do much. I'll be busy the rest of the week but will take pics, wash, and spray the car on the weekend. Thanks man !!


PS. the spray really does smell like bubble gum

Great! Their is a rediculous amount of carnauba in my Platinum 44, so don't expect it to last very long.....

I wanted something that gave off a brilliant shine, especially on metallic cars!

Can't wait to see your pics!
