Ultimately, I feel the same way. I think this would be pretty awesome on darker/deeper color cars...not too much can be done with silver, in my case.

yeah the zymol works magic on metal flake colors, I havent done the formula in awhile, and I have just enough for one last coat (primary reason I haven't done it in awhile, holding out for a show! LOL) I'll get some of this new ultimate wax to try in the mean time

Used it last week and thought it came out great. It's hard to get white to pop, but this does a really good job.

I use many of Meg's products including professional line. This stuff has gotten tons of good feedback on their own forum. I will grab a bottle next chance I get. I always follow a wash up with a final wipe down of Ultimate Quick Wax to give it that last layer of protection. Mostly its for water beeding.

I just gave it a try on my dad's Z28 and it it gives a nice look to it. It will be raining in the next few days so we will see how the wax holds up to the rain.

I use their NXT products and love it. I tried there Ultimate and didnt see much difference. If they discontinue there NXT stuff i will start using it though. Until then its NXT.

6 weeks.............this stuff is still holding up VERY well. Plenty of wax still on the car. Water beads great and I can feel the wax is there.

Pretty good so far.
