I bought a tin off of EBAY as there was a craze about this stuff maybe 18 months ago. Everyone was talking about how great it was, and because I had missed its first coming, I jumped on the bandwagon.

I found it hard to remove with results not much better than the other waxes in my collection.

Does it stack up to more modern waxes? In looks, I believe its about on par, though I cant speak to its durability.

I ended up selling my tin (and breaking even) after the first car as the results simply were't worth the effort to me.

My results were similar. I jumped on the 16 bandwagon and still have my tin. Durability was ok and looks were so so. I think there are plenty of other products on the market that look better and last longer.
