Default Turtle Wax ICE

I am not usually impressed with car care products, but I saw an infomercial on Turtle Wax Ice, and WOW. The liquid clay bar was really easy and it took out the 2 bad spots I had with swirl marks totally.

The polish took a little more time but it was pretty easy to get off...not like wax where you always have streaks and you get it all over your plastics and stuff. This polish you can even use right on your plastic.

My paint can't possibly look any better. Best $30 I ever spent.

I'm a Meguiars fan myselft....clay bar, cleaner, polish, NXT, and detailer.
However, the other day I stopped at Autozone...no NXT detailer. So I picked up some Turtle Wax Ice detailer, and think I like it better. Have used it twice after washing the car. It seems to pick up less dust. I've got vinyl stripes and there you really see a difference.

After one of those uses, I had to drive from here, Arizona, over to Camp Pendleton when all the fires were raging in southern California, and back. Beleive it or not, there was soot on my rims and exhaust tips..but hardly noticable at all on the car. My car is white. That was a good test for me!

Once I tried the Ice detailer, I shelved all other waxes and polishes I had. Nothing but Ice products for me, I'm totally sold on it. As myDad would say, "It'd be a bargain at twice the price."

Yeah, I love the ICE products as well. I have never used the liquid claybar, always use traditional. But I do use the ICE Car Wash, which works great, the ICE Polish, and certainly the ICE detailer spray. Ususally only need to wet wash about once a month, by using the detailer spray and daily California Car Duster....Good Stuff!!

I've got vinyl stripes and there you really see a difference.
So it's okay to use it on the stripes?

The polish and the detailer are safe for allcar surfaces. The polish is probably notthe bestfor glass though.

Yep, I waxed in my stripes a few months ago with ICE and they still look brand new..

I do not have stripes but i do agree that the ICE is the best out there. I used the NXT wash before but for some reason I can't find it anywhere around where i live anymore

Turtle Wax Car Wash products are very good also. They leave the car shinier than other car washes that I have used.

yup... after mike made that thread about ICE with the pictures he posted above, I was stunned. So I went out and got everything he had, and did exactly the same steps, and sure enough, my car has never looked better...crazy good stuff
