TurtleWAX - good or bad?

[RafRaf]

Is it me or are most detailers staying away from turtle wax products? Why so?

[BlueBimmer]

there are definitely better detailing products available but i still use turtle wax cos its free

[chain]

its because there are better options out there; moreso if you're a detailing enthusiast

[leinahtan]

You'll never know whether it is good or bad until you try other stuffs.

Don't generalize a brand, just because its cheap doesn't mean they dont make good stuff.

Very true, Ive used diff kinds and agree that there are better products out there but for its cheap price its not bad at all. Comparing Meguiars and Turtle wax I would say that Meguiars give a better shine but doenst last as long as the turtle wax. Turtle wax is not as shiny but the coat lasts for more than 3 days tried and tested it during the rainy season Turlte wax is pretty good. Ill use it for the rainy season but If I want a show type of shine Mothers or Meguiars is it!!!

btw, ok din yung RAIN AWAY for windshield ng turtle wax... as effective as RainX. ;)

buti na lang at laging out of stock ang RianX...kung hindi, di ko masusubukan ang turtle wax.

[baiskee]

may bago sila oh...

[baiskee]

naiintriga ako sa LEAVES NO WHITE POWDERY RESIDUE... parang gusto ko syang subukan. :D

[ILuvDetailing]

yan ang gamit ko dati nung bago pa ako sa detailing :D

yup cheap doesn't mean inferior quality e.g. Eagle One products.

[Bogeyman]

Heck, I use Turtle Wax. No complaints.

Then again, I'm not really into detailing (yet).

[JohnM]

Turtle Wax user here too. If the surface doesn't feel smooth anymore I wax. Takes me less than half an hour and I like the results.

[Isuzoom]

I use many brands but turtle wax pa rin, I also use it for my conga drum.

[chris_d]

I also use turtle wax. No complaints either.

bkit sabi nila turtle wax strips off paint slowly in your ride? if you look closely at the rag you used, may mga streaks ng car color...is this true or another urban legend? OT, i didn't mean to hijack but i'm using finish 2001 wax..ano ba ang mas ok?

Its not the wax's fault. If you use it on a non-clearcoated paint, paint color will come off with ANY cleaner wax.

It'll come off with a course cloth and water even.

As for paintsticks, they're useless, pointless and inneffective junk.

you'll never know until you try

How true

OT: kanina kasi nadaan ako sa ACE hardware nakakita ako ng turtle wax may pasunod na scratch remover .. para syang carayola na lipstick na ewan have anyone tried this thinggy?

[umzzzzz]

ahhh...yan ung as seen on tv ata eh...pag hinde kakulay ng shade ng oto mo ung "crayola", hindi ata maganda ang kalalabasan

[BlueBimmer]

temporary lng ung chipstick, not really effective

[H1Tman]

i used turtle wax express shine before and felt ok with the results. until i used mother's cleaner wax and saw better results. you'll never know until you try.
