Re: Turtlewax Ice

I haven't. I'd be pleased to hear anyone's opinion of it if they have used it though. Massive review here

http://www.autoexpress.co.uk/product...ar_polish.html

However I think auto express really cocked this test up, all they were looking for was durability. Shine and lustre was not even considered for the rating

Re: Turtlewax Ice

Well at the moment I’m using Autoglym super resin, witch by the way is a fantastic polish and i just love the way the water beads off .
However (Drawback) with using super resin i have found it makes all the door and bumper trims go white and adds more time to cleaning because then have to go round with autoglym bumper care.
This New Turtle wax could cut all my car cleaning down by half because it can be used on the trims without fear of unsightly white residue wonder if the water beads off though.

Re: Turtlewax Ice

yeah its easy to put on just spray on and rub out fast or it gets a bit hard to get off but leaves a great finish and water beads off nicely and ive used it for about 2 months now chris.
