I applied this polish today

It worked. It created a slick surface. It was easy to do.

It cost $55 total from ebay and you receive two 2oz. bottles and a foam pad (which is just enough to do one car). Surprizingly small amount of product for the money.

You need to start out with a clean car so I ran the car thru a car wash.

Then the first step is to wash the car again using the first bottle in a gal. of water and it's called a "polarizing wash"

You sponge that on, and let it dry to a haze for 15 minutes.

Rinse that off, and towel dry well.

Then second step is to apply polish. You apply 2 drops to the foam pad and carefully swirl it onto the painted surfaces only. After it dries, buff it off, and that's it, slick surface created.


It's advertised as lasting for 5 years, who knows. It did give me a slippery surface with more gloss.

For $55, I should have received at least 16oz bottles of the stuff. 2 oz. tiny bottles are insulting in a way... like infomercial stuff.
