I just need some opinions before using it on my car. It contains 100% pure carnauba wax and teflon.

Thx

hn, I have not heard of it but I would bet if you go over to the autopia.org web page someone there will have more information that you probably need. Mick

Thx for the suggestion Mick. Just checked, nothing came up. I'd also searched on Google, not much info came up either. The person who gave me the product said it's only sold to retailers. May be it's true, but I also heard that all the time

Here is a link to the manufacturer’s site: <a href="http://www.jbchemical.com/" target="_blank">http://www.jbchemical.com/</a>

The fact that is not discussed on Autopia is not a good sign. Those guys seem to know every product that is even worth mentioning when it comes to auto care.

Another thought after reading some of the manufacturers claims. It compares its water beading properties to a bunch of products which are all polishes not waxes or sealants. Polishes do not protect the paint surfaces they merely prep them for the final wax or sealant. If this product is suppose to be a wax then it should have compared itself to the waxes and sealants not polishes. Seems misleading.

Additionally, it also does not compare itself to the leaders such as Zymol, Blitz Wax, Klasse, Zaino, PS21 or any of the other higher end products.

Even if they compared it with high end products I still don't believe anything from the manufacture especialy for auto care products. Everything I see at the store is labeled " #1 rated"

Thx

I would post this question on Autopia.com even though it hasn't been covered there. Those guys are pretty passionate about this stuff so I think you'll get some pretty strong opinions.

Let us know how it works out. <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/beerchug.gif" />

hn, I would doubt that level of carnauba. In pure form, it's supposedly like a BRICK!

On their web site, they do say that, "the hardest natural wax available". I think they meant they use 100% PURE carnauba wax.

I also posted the question on autopia.com but nothing so far.
