Black Beast Posted March 23, 2008 Report Share Posted March 23, 2008 Hey guys, I have been using the new turtle wax I.C.E. It goes on really easy and comes off easy too. The only problem is that it doesnt last long at all. Hsa anyone else used this stuff? I am just wondering if I should just double up the coats, or just pitch it, and get some new stuff.

Black2003SS Posted March 23, 2008 Report Share Posted March 23, 2008 I used it and was very disatisfied with it. I would ditch it and pick a more traditional wax like mothers or meguiars, both of which I am very happy with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SS Silv Posted March 23, 2008 Report Share Posted March 23, 2008 To be honest with your, MOST products that are found in local stores have no durability. Mequiars, ICE, Mothers, Turtle Wax etc... might look nice but they won't last very long. Save yourself some time and money and look into Zaino, Sonus, Nattys, Pinnacle or check out my post on Rejex wax. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NTMD8R_SS Posted March 23, 2008 Report Share Posted March 23, 2008 (edited) I wax my truck every month or 2, and use meguires NXT, pretty good product IMO and smells nice. Edited March 23, 2008 by NTMD8R_SS (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
montanass Posted March 23, 2008 Report Share Posted March 23, 2008 I've used the ICE on my dad's 55 nomad. I absolutely hate it. The liquid clay bar didnt work and the "wax" put more of an oily shine on it. IMO Meguire's is one of the finest waxes out there that can be purchased at most auto parts stores. I will use Meguires on my DD any day, but my el Camino gets the royal treatment with Zaino. (amazing stuff and smells lovely.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMO, it's a waste of time and money. Some of those products I listed will protect your vehicles finish for up to 3 months.

TxCrew Posted March 23, 2008 Report Share Posted March 23, 2008 no deal . looks good , easy to use, but doesnt last long. try turtle wax platinum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigred1 Posted March 23, 2008 Report Share Posted March 23, 2008 I use ICE just before a car show because it does give a good shine and hides the residue in the cracks that might be left there but your right it doesnt last very long .

6.0vortech Posted March 23, 2008 Report Share Posted March 23, 2008 i like black magic liquis shine I second the Black Magic wax! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yttaf Posted March 23, 2008 Report Share Posted March 23, 2008 the liquid ice is best used if you have black plastic trim... makes that stuff shine!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allballz57 Posted March 24, 2008 Report Share Posted March 24, 2008 Try zaino,they recommend only using it once a year since it is a polymer wax(it is suppossed to last that long).But I do it twice a year. and use the z-5 after every wash(it is a revitalizer).IMO it is the only way to go,once you try it you won't want anything else.oh and by the way,it does smell awesome!!!

Fireman31 Posted March 24, 2008 Report Share Posted March 24, 2008 I prefer 3M Perfect It Liquid Wax.....durable, easy to use, and gives an awesome shine. The only Ice product I use is their car wash gel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
