Turtle Wax Ice...WOW
 
I picked-up a bottle of Turtle Wax's new Ice liquid wax a few weeks ago and finally got the chance to try it out yesterday and I must say that has to be the best wax I have ever used in my life. It's the first clear wax to ever hit the market and it is like you are instantly wiping a shine onto your car. Aside from the amazing shine it left my car with, it has to be the easiest wax to remove on the market. It comes off just as easy as it goes on. Another thing I like is that it not only comes with the applicator pad, but it also comes with a micro fiber cloth to remove the wax with.
It caught my eye because the bottle made some pretty strong claims, saying that you can polish all exterior plastic without leaving any white residue, you can use it in direct sunlight, and it also has a money back guarantee if you don't think it is the best wax you have ever used.
Well just thought I would share my experience with everybody and I highly recommend that you guys try it out, I think you will be just as surprised as I am.

Cool
I'll have to give it a try. Always looking for better and easier ways.

I smeared it all over the weather stripping and the front plastic piece where the windshield wipers go. Mine was faded and now looks new again.

I just used ICE today and it didn't want to dry. Of course I'm looking for a white residue and maybe it doesn't happen. It still seemed to be wet after about 20 minutes so I wiped it off anyway. It shined real well. All the black parts that it touched didn't turn white either. It was very easy, just like wiping water on the surface. I like it.

Works nicely but the durability is pretty bad...I prefer to stick to sealants like Klasse SG, Jeff Werkstatts Acrylic Jett, or Duragloss 105 and Aquawax

still love the stuff, won first contest with this product. durability is not a problem, because it goes on so easy i do it at least every other week.

Absolutly, for as quick as it can be applied, this is a no brainer. It really does a fantastic job and makes the black trim on a vehicle look new. You can do your Vette in 10-15 minutes. I can do my H2 in 20 minutes, tops. It would take me well over 2 hrs to wax that thing and then deal with the dust and wax on the plastic.

This is a great product in my book and I think I will keep using it. Plus it makes the paint look much deeper and richer. Makes the metallic flakes really come alive!

I have a dark gray lexus that I used this on a few weeks ago and was impressed all over again. With the Vette being silver I really didn't get a chance to appreciate how this product works on darker deeper colors.

I bought it a month ago or so and I thought it sucked, I was wiping off this oily stuff for days untill I washed the car again. It would never dry, Even days later it was still smearing. I am glad some of you had good luck woth it, To me it was a waste of 20 bucks. Will never try it again.

I just tried it, didn't like it . It doesn't seem to ever dry, on a dark color it looks streaky when wiped off. I like the concept because it is very easy to use. I thought maybe I got a bad bottle.

I have a bottle that I will not use. Didnt like that smear it left behind.

Just a update. ice seemed to smear bad the more i used it. I know switched to Adams. One of these days i will listen to my wife when she says you get what you pay for! Adams is by far a better product. use Adams or Zaino you cant go wrong.
