Yeah I know the pictures are pretty bad. My aunt is a professional with some high end equipment and she is coming down to take some sweet pictures. As for the polish I liked it but it seemed really greasy. Its easy to apply and take off and once you take a mc cloth to it the greasy look goes away. Other then that its pretty nice, I just have to see how durable it is.

Thats the stuff you can put on in the sun and use on tires and every other part of your car right. I heard about it today on the radio . Said it is a synthetic wax so putting it on in the sun/hot surfaces is not a problem. It also said to use on tires to shine them up. definitely sounds interesting.
I almost ordered last night. Dont worry about the pics i cant take pics either. Its a art realy. I am gonna have to try some of that ice stuff
and i dont know if you heard but Carmen Electra rid the Sybian on Howard Stern. Im pissed off i been sick for so long, i wanna wax my car and listen to h101

Thanks for all of the replys. I did this outside with the sun right on the paint and there was no problems. I also would get it on the molding and it didnt leave any white stuff behind. As for the tires I havent heard that but I wouldnt doubt it.

I used the ice stuff on my car also. It is good stuff as most products are today. I like the fact that I can get it on my plastic pieces and it dosent leave residue and helps them shine.It was awfully greasy too. But as far as using it as a polish/wax, I'll stick to my wizards polish and NXT wax.

I keep hearing how greasy it is. Once its removed, does the car still have a greasy feel to it?
Car looks good by the way. Its hard to show how well the wax works with a silver car with pictures.

No once you buff the paint it is a little greasy, but after I went through the whole car I went back with a mc towel and buffed it out real quick and I didnt have any more greasy spots. As for the dust I havent had any on more car yet, but the polish has only been on for one day so.

i dont know about the stuff.... I bought some and gave it a try, did three different trials before going over the entire car first did , claybar scratchx and ice, its was pretty good, then did a section just scratchx and ice it was a little hazy, then did just ice over a washed paint, really hazy the reflection was very blurry compared to the first area. Im concerned that its not going to work so well just after washing the car. im gonna use it up otherwise itd be a waste of 16 bucks but im most likely never gonna buy it again.

Well I washed my car with dawn,(just the first time) and then I clayed it, and washed it again with gold class wash. Then I put down the "ice" polish so that must be why I didnt get any hazing. I did see though if apply the polish I will kinda haze, you just have to work it into the paint a little bit longer.
