I like the Ice quick detail spray but for wax I use NXT2.0 it seems to be easier to work with and last longer.

Very impressed with this product... Shine is awsome as well.

Got the answer I was looking for in the 1st sentence, lol.
I just bought some since I was nearly out of Zaino, and today is one of few days I have a chance to do the whole detail thing.

It was really thin I thought maybe it was on the shelf too long, but I guess its suppose to be that way.
Off I go to clay wax and detail!

Wow, this stuff sure goes on nice. I think a claybar is necessary 1st tho, Ice doesnt seen like its made to be buffed and get stuff out of the paint.
But since I claybared 1st its like, well ice, lol.
Quick, smooth, and hardly used any of it.

I'm going to have to try out this clay bar stuff. $40 for the kit seems a bit hard to swallow though...

Actually I have a fair amount of experience with wax, just not the ice.
I hear mixed thoughts on it all the time. Mostly seems to be positive, but I'll form my own opinion over time.

I didn't leave Zaino, I didn't realize my supply was so low when I went to do the car that day. And I did not want to wait the 3-5 days to receive the product. I dont have many chances to spend a good portion of the day doing the whole clay bar, full car detail. Had to do it when I could.
