    Heh, about a month or so ago, I waxed about half of my trunk with #16, and the other half with another Meguiar's wax (cant remember what it was).

    One side has thousands of teeny tiny beads, while the other has large beads.

I keep putting it on thinner and thinner expecting it to be *too* thin for durability, but nope, still works out just fine.
        This is a good thing, since we can't get #16 in America anymore, my current stash should last a lifetime.
        Don't take life too seriously, no one gets out alive.

              UPS delivered two cans of #16 to my door Friday afternoon. West Marine still had it on their website and I got the two cans for about $27, shipped.

                I went to a West Marine store in Phoenix, and they had none on the shelf, and their system showed none in stock at the warehouse...

                Thats why I went ahead and tried for this ebay one...Oh well, at least I have a can to play with now...

                  I have only one can, its all I wanted. #16 is by far the easiest wax to apply, however I'm drawn to #21 more. I still use #16, it adds almost more color to my medium finish.

                      I also ordered 2 cans from West Marine for around $27 with shipping and taxes.

                      I'm looking forward to receiving my shipment. I've been a big fan of using #26 liquid as it left a very dark, rich shine on the paint. I also like it because it's very forgiving when it comes to removing the product: whether thick or thin, it's still a cinch to remove.

                      I'm pretty sure these 2 cans of #16 will last me a while. I was probably gonna order some more but I don't want to be exclusive to one particular wax. There's so much out there that I'd like to try and who knows what new products Meg's has down the pike in the years to come.

                                yeah, i placed an order with west marine last night for 3 cans.

                                Can't wait for it to come in so I can use it on the truck. Probably be spring break before i get to do that though, I'll post pics after I get that detail done.
